Can pregnant women still engage in sexual activity

  A normal married life can greatly enhance the relationship between husband and wife, making life more harmonious and happy. After becoming pregnant, women need to go through a relatively long period of pregnancy, which will inevitably have an impact on normal sexual life between couples. So, can women still have sex during pregnancy?

  

Can pregnant women still engage in sexual activity1

  1. It is not absolutely impossible for women to have sexual intercourse during pregnancy, but the vast majority of the pregnancy period is not suitable for sexual intercourse with their spouse. Only in the mid pregnancy stage, when the fetal development is stable and the early pregnancy symptoms in women have disappeared, can the couple arrange their sexual life according to their own situation.

  2. However, before sexual activity, it is also necessary to go to the hospital for prenatal examination. Gynecological ultrasound can be used to check whether the placenta, amniotic fluid in the cavity, fetal heart rate, and cervical opening of the fetus are normal. If there are abnormal conditions in these tests, sexual activity cannot be carried out even in the middle of pregnancy.

  3. If everything is normal after examination, sexual activity may be considered during the period of 14 to 16 weeks of pregnancy. However, the duration of sexual activity between husband and wife should not be too long, and attention should be paid to avoiding pressure on the female partner. If there is any discomfort during this process, it must be terminated promptly. It should also be noted that excessive sexual activity should not be carried out during the mid pregnancy period, as pregnancy is a special stage that is easily affected by adverse factors and can lead to premature birth. Therefore, special attention should be paid.
