After taking medication for a miscarriage, when can I have sexual intercourse?

Patient's question:

Hello, I had a D&C a few months after taking medication for an abortion. When can I have sex?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, the biggest disadvantage of medication-induced abortion is the high risk of incomplete miscarriage. In such cases, a uterine aspiration (D&C) is necessary. Uterine aspiration causes significant damage to the endometrium, and its recovery requires a period of time. Generally, sexual activity is strictly prohibited within one month to prevent infection.
Advice: It is recommended to pay attention to keeping warm, avoid getting cold, maintain a positive mood and get adequate sleep, and reasonably balance your diet to promote physical recovery.
