A member asked:
Dr. please for how long weeks or months should a woman who had her baby delivered normally or naturally have sex with her husband?.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
A few weeks: As long as she feels well, there is no specific definitive time to return to normal sexual activity after delivering a baby. The comfort level of the woman who just had labor is the important factor. Generally let the vaginal area rest for a week or so after and then proceed if she feels ready.
