Generally speaking, sexual intercourse should be avoided after egg retrieval for IVF and before transplantation. If sexual intercourse is performed, it will easily stimulate the expansion of the uterus and ovaries. In severe cases, ovarian torsion may occur. It may also cause worsening abdominal pain. Therefore, if you have sex on the day after IVF egg retrieval, you need to observe whether you have worsening lower abdominal pain or vaginal bleeding in the next period of time, and pay attention to getting more rest, avoiding heavy physical work and large changes in posture. If the discomfort is very serious, you need to go to the hospital for a physical examination as soon as possible. In addition, after the IVF egg retrieval, women should pay attention to eating more high-protein foods, avoid eating spicy foods, drink plenty of water, and take the medicines prescribed by the doctor on time.

After the IVF egg retrieval, women must wait at least two weeks before they can have sexual intercourse. The operation of egg retrieval for in vitro fertilization will cause certain damage to the woman's uterus and ovaries, so you need to wait until the woman's body recovers before having sex. It is best for women to have sex after their menstrual period, and also pay attention to good contraceptive methods, which is beneficial to the recovery of the woman's body.

Often, eggs need to be retrieved for IVF, usually for the purpose of test tubes. After egg retrieval for IVF, transplantation is usually required within three to five days. You must not have sex in the next few days. Because the test tube embryo is not stable a few days before and after the IVF transplant, having sexual intercourse too early can easily affect the implantation of the test tube embryo and can also easily cause miscarriage and threatened abortion. If there is inflammation in the reproductive organs, it can also cause pelvic inflammation, which will affect the success rate of the IVF operation.

After the IVF egg retrieval, women should pay attention to bed rest and drink plenty of water. After the operation, there will be mild abdominal pain and other discomfort. It is best to rest in bed, drink plenty of water, speed up urination, and prevent infection. When doing all activities, keep your movements at a brisk pace. During the ovulation induction cycle, the uterus and ovaries will be larger than usual. In order to avoid abnormalities of the uterus and ovaries, daily activities should be light, slow and steady.
