SEX IN PREGNANCY – GENERAL INFORMATION

It appears that having sexual intercourse during pregnancy is accepted as normal behavior. However, the medical profession has been a little hesitant to accept it as being safe, particularly in the latter stages. Doctors have thought that intercourse at this time might bring on premature labor or lead to infection.

Obstetric textbooks have warned doctors to discourage intercourse in late pregnancy, but have offered little evidence to support this opinion.

A joint study in America and Israel has now produced evidence that there is little to support this view. Doctors are no longer justified in discouraging their patients from continuing sexual activity right through pregnancy.
