A member asked:

What are the risks of having unprotected sex while on pelvic rest?

A doctor has provided 1 answer
Dr. Michael Sparacino answered

Depends: It depends on why you were put on pelvic rest to begin with. Most are put on it for preterm labor. If that's the case, preterm delivery could ensue.

Dr Rao and another doctor agreed
