A member asked:
I experienced second degree perineal tear during child birth. is it alright to masturbate & have orgasm 3 weeks postpartum? with no penetration.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Perineal tear: The tear did penetrate the skin and muscle, but after 3 weeks, if the area feels fairly normal to you, masturbation and orgasm should be well tolerated. However, penetration and vaginal intercourse would most likely not be tolerated for another month when full healing would have occurred. Your gynecologist can advise you best,however.
