Does having sex in the first three months lead to fetal malformations?

Patient's question:

No

Doctor's answer:

Except for the risk of miscarriage, there are no other effects on the fetus. If you don't feel any discomfort, there is generally no major problem. In the early stages of pregnancy, the embryo is in a rapid development phase, and the connection between the fetus and the mother (placenta) is not yet strong enough. External stimuli such as sexual activity can easily induce uterine contractions, leading to miscarriage. However, for safety reasons, doctors usually recommend abstinence for the first three months. Since you cannot control it, you can have it moderately, but you must pay close attention to hygiene, as well as master the position and intensity. If you have any psychological concerns, it is recommended to go to the hospital to check the fetal heartbeat.
