What Duration Is Required Between A&P Repair And Sexual Intercourse?

I had an A&P repair done on Feb. 4th. I had my first re-check and my doctor said things looked good. I am back to work on a 20lb weight restriction but he did not address when I could have sexual intercourse or even douche. He is on vacation so I m just checking to be safe.

General & Family Physician 's  Response
welcome to hcm,
i will recommend you to have sexual intercourse after 3 months of A&P repair. so nothing to worry,
one of the main reasons for doing A&P repair is due to painful intercourse i think because of that reason you are more concerned.
after 3 months of surgery everything will be normal inside and the wound would have healed fully. so you can start having your intercourse after 3 months time. but now too if you are feeling discomfort and pain consult you treating doctor
hope this explains
