I'm feeling a bit better after having chicken pox for the past 12 days. Is it okay to have sex now, or would it be safer to wait a little longer?

It's great to hear you're feeling better. However, it's recommended to wait until all scabs have fallen off and your skin has healed completely before resuming sexual activity. This helps reduce the risk of spreading the virus and ensures your body has fully recovered.
