Can you have sex after a natural birth at one month?

Patient's question:

No

Doctor's answer:

Generally, it is recommended not to have sexual intercourse within 40 days after a normal delivery. Additionally, avoid contact with cold water and washing cold feet, as well as consuming spicy foods. Avoid tub baths and heavy physical labor. Otherwise, it is easy to develop gynecological inflammation and uterine prolapse. Also, pay attention to rest and consume more high-quality protein foods.
