A member asked:
Currently 23 weeks, cerclage in place, cervix tightly closed and weekly 17p progesterone shots. is it ok if my husband and i gently had sex?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
OK: There is nothing wrong with you and your husband having sex. I am sure he is very thoughtful of you and won't cause any pain. If that does happen he will be kind enough to stop but still love and comfort you. Once decided, please consider both of you going to see a gynecologist.
