A member asked:

Is it possible for you to rupture your spleen from having sex when you have mono?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Possible not likely: Anything is possible but it would have to be pretty physically aggressive sex to lead to splenic rupture. Usually we are concerned about contact sports rather than sexual contact.
