Risky: You increase your risk of opening the incision at the top of the vagina by resuming relations that early. The risk of bleeding and infection is also greater.

Not recommended : It is typically recommended to wait six weeks before having intercourse after a hysterectomy if your cervix was removed. The vaginal cuff requires time to heal and could be ruptured with intercourse. This could be very dangerous. Check with your doctor if you have any problems. Hope this helps.
