A member asked:
I gave birth on the 4th of april i had my iud put in yesterday. can i have sex the next day without a condom?

Sure, if you feel ok: So long as you feel up to it! an iud is effective immediately for birth control, so the real determining factor is when you feel physically recovered from childbirth (and the iud insertion) and comfortable resuming sexual activity.
