I don't follow your answer. can you please explain better. I'm already pregnant, are you saying if we have intercourse right now, the drugs he took yesterday will not effect my baby?

Answered by Dr. Prof. Kunal Saha (7 minutes later)

Brief Answer:
It will not affect your baby

Detailed Answer:
Thanks for explaining.
If you are already pregnat, you cannot conceive once again right now and the drugs that your husband takes now or the sperms that he releases, cannot have any effect on your present pregnancy. In case of a healthy pregnancy, there should not be any problems if you have sexual intercourse with your partner, unless you have some definite complicating factor like low lying placenta or cervical weakness. If that is not the case, you need not worry and can proceed to having sex with your partner.
Hope that helps.
Regards
