How long after Leep surgery can one have sexual intercourse?

Patient's question:

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

Doctor's answer:

Hello, after cervical erosion surgery, please pay attention to: prevent infection, use antibiotics for 3-5 days as needed, and prevent bleeding. Vaginal discharge will begin 2-3 days after surgery and is normal to last for 2-4 weeks. During the 1-2 weeks after surgery, the cervical wound will start to shed scabs, leading to a small amount of bleeding, which usually stops on its own within 4-6 days. If the bleeding exceeds a menstrual period or gradually increases, please return to the hospital for hemostasis.
