Is Intercourse Safe After Placing A Urethral Stent?

i had a ureteral stent placed about 10 days ago for a liproposy where they blasted a kidney stone. Because of the size of the stone, my doc wanted to leave the stent in for a couple weeks to make sure all was clear . I feel great, and now have 10 days of sexual energy pent up. I d like to know if it is safe to have sex, or at a minimum, take care of myself to relieve stress

Hello,

You can have intercourse while having a stent in situ. It will not cause any harm to your kidneys or urinary system.
