How long after giving birth should we not have sex?

Coitus is coitus. For vaginal deliveries, you can’t have intercourse within 6 weeks after delivery, and for cesarean deliveries, you can’t have intercourse for about 8 weeks. How long you can’t have intercourse after giving birth depends on the mode of delivery and the recovery situation. For a normal delivery, the discharge is usually completely clean in 6 weeks, and the uterus can slowly recover after about 6 weeks. Therefore, you should not have intercourse within 6 weeks after a normal delivery. For weak women who do not recover well after delivery, it is necessary to delay coitus. For cesarean section, the discharge usually lasts for about 6 weeks, and the uterus can recover after about 8 weeks. So you can’t have intercourse for about 8 weeks after a C-section, and if the C-section wound is not healing well, you also need to delay intercourse. If the wound is not healing well, you may need to delay having intercourse. You should go to the hospital for a checkup after giving birth, and if you are recovering well, you can have intercourse at the right time.
