Patient's question:
I've been pregnant for over a month, and I found out about it about half a month ago. Recently, I had sex with my husband many times, but the movements weren't very intense. However, over the past two days, I've been experiencing bloating, dizziness, and poor appetite, and I'm worried it might affect the fetus. At 40 days, I had a color Doppler ultrasound, and the doctor said the fetus was quite normal and asked us to be careful in the future.What kind of help do I need: Can I have sex during pregnancy?
Doctor's answer:
Hello, no, generally speaking, the impact of sexual activity on the fetus during pregnancy is mainly manifested in the first three months and the last three months of pregnancy. In the first three months, it is more likely to cause miscarriage in pregnant women, while in the last three months, it often leads to premature birth in pregnant women. During the rest of the time, the impact of sexual activity on the fetus will not be too great. Therefore, it is necessary to strictly control the timing to avoid accidents. In the second trimester of pregnancy, the placenta has already formed, and the pregnancy is relatively stable. Although it is not likely to cause miscarriage due to minor stimuli, sexual activity should not be too frequent or intense. The male's movements should remain steady, even during sexual climax, the movements should be slow. Pay attention to the position of sexual intercourse is also very important. Couples can choose some suitable positions, so as not to compress the abdomen. If it is too frequent and intense, there is still a risk of miscarriage and premature rupture of membranes.
