Can you still have sex after getting pregnant?

Patient's question:

Can you have sex after getting pregnant? Currently, I'm living separately from my husband. I got pregnant, and I'm afraid he'll want to have sex when he comes back. Can I still have sex while pregnant?

Doctor's answer:

Estimating the gestational age requires a reference to the last menstrual period. Do you still vaguely remember when your last menstrual period was? If it's currently in the first trimester of pregnancy, cohabitation is strictly prohibited, as it may easily lead to miscarriage. If you don't vaguely remember the date of your last menstrual period, it is recommended that you go to the hospital for a color ultrasound examination to clarify it. In the second trimester, cohabitation is appropriate, but it is still advisable to be cautious and avoid excessive force.
