Description

Today on the Egg Whisperer Show podcast, the first question I answer is from Ashley. She asked one of the most commonly asked questions that I get from my patients: “We did our first frozen embryo transfer last week and I just had my second positive beta test! We haven't had sex since before the transfer, what do you think about waiting until after the heartbeat or even until after the first trimester to resume having sex? Thanks so much! Love your show :)” So, most people don’t talk about this very much, but when you're pregnant sometimes you feel a little bit more sexual than when you're not pregnant. This doesn't happen to everybody. But there are people that actually call me panicking about it. Feeling more sexual can also be really, really normal in pregnancy.  So, certainly talk to your doctor to make sure they recommend the same thing. My show is about education and information. What I tell my patients is this: You can have sex up until the embryo transfer day. After the embryo transfer, I recommend having sex after your pregnancy test. Around eight days post transfer with really strong levels, then you can be sexual.  And believe it or not, this is probably one of the most commonly asked questions of fertility doctors.  To submit your own question to Dr. Aimee for a future episode of Ask The Egg Whisperer, click here.  Subscribe to my YouTube channel for more fertility tips!
