How long should you wait to have intercourse after IVF?

Patient's question:

Doctor, I want a second child, but I have never been able to give birth naturally, so my husband and I have undergone in vitro fertilization. I would like to know how long after in vitro fertilization can we have sex? What kind of help do you need: How long after in vitro fertilization can we have sex?

Doctor's answer:

According to your description, if you want to have a second child and cannot give birth naturally, you can decide to choose in vitro fertilization. Generally speaking, after undergoing in vitro fertilization, you need to rest in bed for at least 5 to 7 days. As for the timing of sexual intercourse, it needs to be implemented based on the success of the delivery. If the delivery is successful, sexual intercourse is not allowed for the first three months of pregnancy. In the middle stages of pregnancy, you can engage in appropriate sexual intercourse based on the condition of the fetus.
