How long after a c-section can i have intercourse ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
6-8 weeks: It takes the uterus about 6 weeks to reduce to its normal size. You should wait until then to avoid infection. Some women have pain after a cesarean that makes them avoid sex for up to 8 weeks. If you have pain, wait.
