Sex hurts after a miscarriage.
For the first couple of weeks following a miscarriage, sex will typically feel unpleasant, uncomfortable or even painful. This discomfort should ease after a few weeks, though it still may be emotionally painful for women to engage in intimacy with their husband because of emotional setbacks.
