A member asked:

Have marginal placenta previa is orgasim ok? dr siad no sex.

5 doctors weighed in across 2 answers

Listen to Doctor: If your doctor meant "no sexual intercourse" (penetration), you should heed the advice. However, having an orgasm is a bit different. It often causes uterine contractions but seldom actually starts labor. I suggest you ask your doctor for clarification. Don't be shy!

Best to listen to: your doctor and not have sex for the safety of you and the baby.
