Is Getting An Orgasm Safe A Week After D And C Procedure?

Hello, I had a D&C procedure exactly 7 days ago and was advised to refrain from having sexual intercourse for two weeks following the procedure. It s been exactly one week and my libido is giving me fits, enough that I feel I must do something to satisfy it in order to maintain my sanity. My first question is, is it safe to engage in clitoral stimulation until I achieve an orgasm? My second question is, is it safe to have an orgasm 7 days after a d&c procedure? Thank you so much. Age

Hello dear,

Thank you for your contact to health care magic.

I read and understand your concern.

I am Dr Arun Tank answering your concern.

No, you should avoid sexual stimulation.

This type of stimulation may affect the wound caused by the D and C procedure.

You can go for clitoral stimulation. It won't affect the healing of the inner tissue.

For D and C it is necessary for you to abstain from the sex for about a two weeks.

With clitoral stimulation I suggest you should maintain good hygiene while doing this act. Other wise the infection will spread to the wounded area.

I will be happy to answer your further concern on bit.ly/DrArun.

Thank you,
Dr Arun Tank
