Can have sex act, if no symptoms.
Detailed Answer:
Hi there,
Thanks for appreciating the answer answer and reverting back. As you have mentioned about the pessary, it is ring like unit made from innert material.
After your doctor has fitted it and if you do not have any pressure symptoms or any issues with passing urine , then you can consider that it has been well fitted.
You can start having sexual activity anytime
If you happen to feel dryness while having sex act, I will suggest use of water based lubricant jelly.
I hope this answer helps you.
Please feel free to communicate again if needed.
Thanks.
