Patient's sources of information on coitus during pregnancy.
Obstetric patients were asked what sources they consulted for information about the advisability of coitus during pregnancy and what period of abstinence they inferred was proper from each. In general, the patients in the sample had incomplete information about these matters. A good indicator is that only 1 of the 17 patients in the sample had discussed them with her physician, and she did not know his recommendations.
