How long after a miscarriage can you have sex?

After a miscarriage, the recommended time to wait before having sex can vary depending on individual circumstances and the advice of your healthcare provider. However, general guidelines include:

1. Wait Until Bleeding Stops: It’s usually advised to wait until any vaginal bleeding or spotting has completely stopped. This helps reduce the risk of infection.
2. Follow Medical Advice: Your healthcare provider may recommend a specific waiting period based on how far along the pregnancy was, the type of miscarriage, and whether any medical procedures were needed.
3. Emotional Readiness: Beyond physical healing, it’s important to consider your emotional readiness to resume sexual activity.

Typically, many healthcare providers suggest waiting about 2 weeks after a miscarriage before having sex, but this can vary. Always consult your healthcare provider for personalized guidance to ensure your body has healed properly and to address any concerns.
