How long after a normal delivery can you have sex?

Patient's question:

I have an itchy lower body, and my underwear is always yellow. What's going on? How long after a vaginal birth can I have sex?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, generally speaking, the reproductive organs and other systems need 6 to 8 weeks to recover after childbirth, and a woman's interest in sexual life also needs to increase significantly by the third month.
Hello! It's not necessary to empty the breasts every time after feeding. If there is too much milk, leaving some in the breasts can signal the body to reduce milk production. It's not that more milk is better; a balance between supply and demand is the most ideal.
