Patient's question:
I have an itchy lower body, and my underwear is always yellow. What's going on? Can I have sex if I'm pregnant?Doctor's answer:
Generally, it is recommended not to have sexual intercourse during the early stages of pregnancy (months 1, 2, and 3) and the later stages (months 7, 8, and 9). However, it is okay to have intercourse during the mid-pregnancy period (months 4, 5, and 6). But it is advised to be gentle during intercourse. Otherwise, it may lead to the possibility of miscarriage. Sexual intercourse itself does not cause any harm to the fetus. Since getting pregnant is already a difficult process, it is recommended to regulate your menstrual cycle before getting pregnant. Taking Guizhen (a traditional Chinese medicine) may also be beneficial.
