I am having surgery Thursday June 30th. Should I shave, trim, or even remotely care about my nether regions?

*Note: I am single and haven't gotten any action in YEARS so it's a wilderness down there*

laugh.gif You'll be naked under your gown, but they're not going to get anywhere near the danger zone. I didn't bother trimming... maybe I should have... but I think you're safe!

I'm gonna trim the hedges but don't shave because you don't want to introduce staph just in case. Makes me wish I followed through on laser hair removal.

I'm gonna do some deforestation on mine before my surgery *which is to be announced in four months*

The fact that you are thinking about probably means you will be self-concsious about it if you don't do some trimming! I'm planning on it!

If you want to make a scene, buzz a design into it! LOL. Maybe I will do! Give them something to talk about.

I don't think the doc will care, but I know after being in the hospital and having the nurses and doctor lift my gown to check incisions over and over again (and not being allowed to wear undies), it got pretty embarrassing for me after awhile...

My surgery is the same day! I always keep mine shaved. However, I think its a personally choice. I was told they will not be down in that area. I forgot to ask but I read somewhere that you can not shower for two days so I think for hygiene wise it's a great idea to trim her a little. Just my opinion! Good Luck and let me know how you're surgery is!

speaking from a nurses point of view they won't even pay attention and the surgery itself won't be anywhere near the untamed lioness

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
