Coil fitted - when can I have intercourse

Just that really. Had the copper coil fitted today and completely forgot to ask the Dr when it was ok to have sex again. I know it’s effective as contraception immediately, I’m think more from an infection/letting it settle in place point of view.

I’ve left a msg with the doctor but not heard back. It’s DH’s birthday today and after having to abstain for a while I think he’ll be wanting to know if we’ve e got the go ahead today!

It's been a while since I had mine fitted but I'm sure my doctor told me to wait a few days. I felt fine after having it and had minimal cramping and bleeding but everyone is different.

For anyone that needs the answer to this in the future……the doctor phoned me back and said it’s fine to go ahead whenever I feel ready.
