ok I need a little advice. I have been having a hard time getting in the mood. I think about sex a few times through the day. I dream about it every night. I am extremely turned on by my dh but when it comes down to doing it I just fizzle out. I don't know if it is a self image thing (like I feel self conscious about my body even though I am losing weight and should feel great)or what. All I know is I am horny as hell but I don't want to have sex. What the heck is wrong with me? I have never had this problem before. Somebody HELP!!!

If you are not taking in many calories, your body may be tired. As a built in defense against starvation, animals have a way of putting procreation lower on the priority list when they are losing fat.

Diet may be the issue, but really it could be any number of things. Try some variety to spice up your love life. If that doesn't work and the problem persists, contact a sex therapist.

Forum: The Urology Forum

Topic: Urology - General

Subject: Nutritional Information

My girlfriend was wondering what the nutritional content (fat, calories, Protein, Fiber, etc...) is for the semen of a typical ejaculation (for oral sex purposes). I am serious, she is concerned that it is too fatty to swallow or somehow bad for her.

-------------------------------------------------------------------

Dear LT,

I do not doubt the seriousness of your question however if your girlfriend does not want to swallow semen I suspect it is not only due to it’s nutritional content. The sexual practices of a couple must be mutually agreed upon by both parties and a sex therapist is better qualified to discuss those issues in detail.

The normal ejaculate contains approximately 2.0 to 3.0 cc. Of that , 1.5 to 2.0 cc come from the seminal vesicles. 0.5cc from the prostate and 0.1 to 0.2 cc from Cowper’s gland. The
majority of the Fluid is protein
. A very small amount is fructose ( sugar). The
caloric content is low with almost no fat
. This information is provided for general medical education purposes only. Please consult your physician for diagnostic and treatment options pertaining to your specific medical condition. HFHS M.D.-KR

DAMN IT!! My DH countered with his version of nutritional facts.

eeewwwww raw warm salty egg whites

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
