A member asked:

18 days ago, a cyst ruptured on my right ovary. i was bleeding internally so the doctors removed the cyst and my appendix. how soon can i have sex?

Usually 2 wks: Always ask dr who did your surgery, as there may be extenuating circumstances which would cause them to give a different answer. Also, with protection, if needed.
