Miscarriage is the sudden loss of a pregnancy before the 20th week. Having sex while pregnant won't cause a miscarriage. Most miscarriages happen because the fetus isn't growing as it should.
It's common to have cramps or spotting after sex or orgasm. But if you have bad cramping that doesn't go away or heavy bleeding that is like a menstrual period, contact your healthcare professional.
