It's the last thing I want to do right now given that I'm still bleeding. But, thinking forward...

Where they say to leave it two weeks to prevent infection. Is that two weeks after the bleeding stops?

Leave it until the bleeding stops and more importantly, wait until you're physically and emotionally ready. Use protection until if and when you're ready to try again - you're very fertile right now. I'm sorry for your loss x

After miscarriage you should wait until after your first real period to have unprotected sex again. Just to not cause infection or anything x

I had my op yesterday and the waiting for your first period is for selfish reasons as it helps them date the pregnancy. No sex for two weeks to prevent infection.
