Is it dangerous to have sex during pregnancy?

Patient's question:

Now still have sexual life Past treatment history and effectiveness: No history of treatment What help do you want: Is it still dangerous?

Doctor's answer:

Generally speaking, the impact of sexual activity on a fetus during pregnancy is primarily observed in the first three months and the last three months. The first trimester increases the risk of miscarriage, while the third trimester often leads to premature birth. During the remaining time, the impact of sexual activity on the fetus is not significant. Therefore, it is crucial to strictly regulate the timing to avoid any accidents. In fact, a woman's libido significantly decreases during pregnancy, especially in the first three to four months, where she may show indifference or strong aversion to any sexual contact. This is because the fatigue brought by pregnancy lowers her libido, making it difficult for her to focus on sexual activity. Although some pregnant women maintain their libido, they often feel extremely tired at night, leading to a lack of response to sexual activity. For this reason, men should have sufficient understanding of their pregnant partners. Husbands should adopt various approaches, such as helping their wives with more household chores or accompanying them for walks.
