How soon you can have intercourse after breast surgery is mainly determined by the specific kind of breast surgery, size and depth of the wound the patient has. If it is a minor surgery such as breast fibroid or breast lipoma, you can have intercourse about a week after breast surgery. The time of intercourse is mainly determined by whether the wound healing is complete and whether there is pain. In the case of major surgery such as radical mastectomy, a longer recovery period is needed. Two weeks after surgery, intercourse may be painful due to strenuous activities and breast engorgement, so intercourse is not possible and needs to be postponed for about a month. After breast surgery, whether minor or major, the surgical site should be bandaged with pressure to facilitate the quiet growth of the wound.
