Can you have sex after taking medication for an abortion?

Patient's question:

Hello, may I ask if sexual activity is possible after medication abortion? For example, kissing, touching sensitive parts of the body.
Also, can I give oral sex to my boyfriend?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, you cannot have sexual activity after taking medication for an abortion. You should avoid sexual intercourse before your next menstrual period after the procedure. Do not take baths, vaginal douches, or medication. This is because the cervix is relaxed, the endometrium is shedding, and the local defense ability is weakened, making it easy to cause retrograde infection, which can lead to pelvic inflammatory diseases such as endometritis and adnexitis. Severe cases may result in infertility. For now, it is important to maintain cleanliness of the external genitalia.
