Sex life is a regulator of boring life, but many families have all kinds of unhappiness because of it. The occurrence of many gynecological diseases is inseparable from sex life. So how long after a cervical scrape can you have sex? Cervical scrape diagnosis generally does not damage the cervix and has little effect on sex. This mainly depends on the situation of the female friend after the examination. Let us learn about it together!

1. What is a cervical smear test ? It is recommended that women should start regular cervical cancer screening, which mainly checks for cervical cell mutations rather than HPV infection. Female friends who have sex should do a cervical smear, or TCT, every two years to determine whether they are in the stage of precancerous lesions. Cervical smears are to take a small amount of cell samples from the cervix of the uterus, then put them on a glass slide and observe them under a microscope to see if they are abnormal. Therefore, even if the examination finds only inflammation, it should be treated and rechecked after 1-2 months until it is normal or only mildly inflamed. However, it should be rechecked after two years. You can't rest assured if the result is normal once.

2. How long after the examination can I have sex ? After the cervical scraping test, you must pay attention to hygiene habits. Especially at this time, do not accept sexual stimulation to avoid cervical congestion. It is best not to sleep in the same bed within three days, as having sex will increase the chance of infection and inflammation. Some patients will bleed during the cervical scraping, which generally will not cause any impact on the uterus. You need to wait until the bleeding stops after a week before having sex to avoid infection. It is recommended that patients receive symptomatic treatment according to the test results. During this period, you should pay attention to a light diet, avoid spicy and irritating foods, and keep the vulva clean and hygienic. If there are no symptoms, generally no medication is needed for treatment.

In general, if there is no abnormal cervical bleeding, you can have sex after 7-14 days. If there is an abnormal situation, it is recommended to have sex after the next menstruation to prevent the possibility of infection. It is not recommended for patients to have sex too early. Pay special attention to diet and sexual hygiene on weekdays. If there is inflammation, it is best not to have sex within one month. The day before having sex, you must have a detailed physical examination to understand the recovery of the cervix and communicate more with the doctor during this process.
