OK, most of us probably don’t think about our ob/gyns when having sex. But, it turns out, maybe you should—at least, if that sex is unprotected and you have a doctor’s appointment coming up.
Doctors typically recommend that you avoid having unprotected sex up to 48 hours before a Pap test, but board-certified ob/gyn Pari Ghodsi, M.D., says you’re perfectly fine to have sex with a condom beforehand if you’re not getting a Pap at this visit. (If you’re not sure, call your doctor’s office in advance.)
