Question: Please doctor I need your advice Its two weeks after I had a abdominal myomectomy surgery I want to know when its safe to have sex with my husband
Answer: Hello there and thanks for using Wellvis

First of all I hope youre feeling much better following your recent surgery

Regarding sexual activity most surgeons recommend waiting a minimum of 46 weeks after surgery before having intercourse This allows for the pain to subside and for the surgical wound to heal better There are other factors involved depending on the reason for the surgery

However when you do resume sexual intercourse it is recommended to wait for at least 6 months before getting pregnant if you are trying to

Your followup checks with your gynaecologist is very important and you should report any worrying symptoms like a high fever nausea or vomiting severe pain bleeding from the surgical site chest or breathing issues abnormal vaginal discharge etc

Also moderate walking is helpful in your healing process and eating healthy too with high fibre to avoid constipation
