Sex After Lap & D&C..?
A MyEndometriosisTeam Member asked a question 💭

Very TMI post, but I need to know lol. What is everyone's experience with their first time having sex after a laparoscopy and/or D&C? How long did you wait? I was told 2 weeks but I'm afraid of the pain... But my boyfriend and I had already scheduled a nice vacation which is 2 1/2 weeks after my surgery. I had the surgery a week ago, still feel like I'm having uterus cramps/aches and still bleeding.

Also, more into the TMI section- are all kinds of sex not allowed? Vaginal, anal, and oral? Or… read more

Hello! I waited for 2 weeks after my D&C and got permission from my OBGYN after a physical exam... She told me my cervix was closed and I could go back to my normal life again, and have intercourse with no risk of infection...
I have to confess that the wait was very difficult! I just wanted to feel normal again! The big O didn´t hurt!
Hope this helps and that you recover fast!

Wait until the bleeding is completely stopped and in my experience sex actually is what made the pain go away, like completely. I was so surprised that it was the only thing that made a difference. Its crazy but it worked for me. Just remember you are still recovering and slow and steady wins the race lol just go at whatever pace feels the best and be mindful of the pain if there is any.

Anyone bled after sex after doing the d&c and laproscopy. My doctor told me I could go ahead after the first week but I waited for the second week. The bleeding is very light however
