 [ Symptoms ] what can be done to improve sexual desire while taking pain medications [ Disease ] i am not sure why your ob restricted intercourse nor even what heshe considers a short cervix unless your doctor prohibited other sexual stimulation for some unknown reason i do not know your medical history or if you are pregnant it should be fine i feel that you deserve a better more detail explanation as to why intercourse is being restricted but unfortunately i cannot guess as to the reasons you will need to specifically ask your ob about this recommendation hi here is a interesting link this should help you <link> just copy into google to the www to open and read but did also read that having orgasms are not that good for your cervix as they tend to move it so i think your find the no sex does mean no sex or having clitiral orgasms hope this helps you good luck
