I was told to wait 6 weeks. I could drive after 3, but no sex for 6 . Seriously though, I felt like I would be fine to do it at about 3 weeks, but by 5 weeks I could tell it wouldn't be a good idea. I found when recovering that I felt really good from about 10 days to 4-5 weeks, and then the numbness started to go, and I could really feel everything healing, if that makes sense. I feel pretty good again now, at almost 8 weeks, but I'm really glad now that we didn't have sex earlier, because I don't think I would have been able to feel my limits, and may have done damage or hindered my recovery, IYKWIM. Something to keep in mind in general with your recovery
