How long after a vaginal delivery were you able to have ***********?

Pretty basic question.
Just wondering how long after a vaginal delivery you were able to have ***********.
I am 3 weeks postpartum after a vaginal delivery, without any tares or an episiotomy. I feel like I’m ready, but just unsure if it’s safe or not.

Doctors advise 6 weeks after birth. But you may feel ready before then or you may not want it for much much later. You may find the sources below to be helpful.
There are conflicting views in the medical community as to whether or not you are at increased risk for infection during those early weeks after having given birth. Ultimately it is YOUR decision but I would tend to err on the side of caution. 6 weeks isn’t that long really and there are other ways to please your partner
Supposedly, you should wait for the okay from your doctor at your 6-week appointment. Some people are comfortable with it before then, and others wait longer. We waited 8 weeks because I didn’t feel ready. And it hurt for about 4 months after that. I guess I was just one of the unlucky ones! Hopefully it won’t be like that the next time around
Most doctors will tell you wait 6 weeks, but really its up to you, when you feel comfortable doing it. Make sure you use protection because your chances of being pregnant are much higher right after birth,
Typically six weeks. For a C-section, twelve (you never know if you’ll end up having one do to some unforeseen complication).
You supposed to wait 6 weeks! I wait 8 weeks.
