Sex after Surgery

I'm alittle worried about my sex drive. I'll be 4 weeks out on Thursday and my desire for sex is GONE! Is this normal? Anybody else experience this? Does the desire come back?

you will be fine it is your hormones are all wecky

Most guys see a pretty good rise in their desire as the hormones are diluted less by decreased body mass. Women seem to feel more desire but as we all know EVERYONE IS DIFFERENT.

Wait a few weeks then ask the doc. There is a lot of stuff going on and your rapid decrease in calories is bound to screw up your chemical balance for a while.

Thanks! I have my 4 week follow-up appt this week. I'll mention it and see what he says. I just don't want this to be permanent.

more than ever,lol.

If I knew mine would be higher ( more) then I need to be sleeved sooner. Lol

Seriously,

Good luck.

Ok now, I know how many times we all talked about sex. My Pcp is sending me to see a psychiatrist for my sex drive! That should be fun. I got one papi and he doesn't mind giving it to me multiple times a day and everyday so I am not sure why it is a problem. Will keep y'all updated with my appt. dang sex is awesome. I am 30, sexy and flexible so what's the harm?

Sex drive is low too. But it always has been, so lets hope that changes

Mine is high. All the time.....I mean alllllll the time!!!!!!
