Patient's question:
Hello, I had a miscarriage 40 days ago, and today after intercourse, I had deep red blood. What could be the reason? Could it be due to an incomplete miscarriage?Doctor's answer:
Generally, it is not advisable to have sexual intercourse within one month after a miscarriage. The recovery of the uterus after a miscarriage requires a period of time. Within the first month after a miscarriage, the cervix remains open, and during this time, bacteria can enter the vagina through the penis, potentially causing pelvic inflammatory disease, vaginitis, and other infections. It is recommended that you take precautions and wait until you feel no discomfort after one month post-miscarriage before resuming sexual activity.
