A member asked:

I'm pregnant and want to have sexual intercourse with my partner but am frightened that i will get a air embolism, is this rare and is this unlikely?

Rare: This is rare and usually only happens if you compressed air is blown into the vagina. If your partner avoids blowing air into the vagina you won't get an air embolism. Best wishes!

Rare & unlikely: Sexual intercourse during pregnancy is very safe. You should be fine.
