A member asked:

I had a hemorrhagic ovarian cyst to rupture, how long should i wait to resume sexual intercourse?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

When comfortable: An ovarian cyst is inside of your abdomen, the only thing that would keep you from having sex would be your comfort. You can't really hurt anything by having sex, so if you feel up to it and have the desire there is no reason not to.
