Sex after D&C

Je

I had a D&C this morning and the discharge nurse told me to not have sex for 6 weeks. I go back to the doctor in 10 days for a follow up, and can ask him then. But was just wondering if anyone else was given that long. From what I had seen before things said to wait until bleeding had stopped or 2 weeks. I definitely want to hold off until the bleeding has stopped, but felt 6 weeks was a bit long.
