Fooling Around After Surgery

I want to know how long you have to wait after surgery before you can start fooling around...? A much needed and valid question...

Everyone's healing time is different and they way they feel in general. I would check with your doctor. I waited until I was about 3 weeks post op. I was not in the "mood" at all right after surgery.

Same here.

I am weird for a girl...b/c I am always in the mood, lol I was ready and willing within 2 weeks...but the bf was worried and we waited 5. But I get into some weird bendy positions. It may be easier for you since you are a guy

My doctor told me to go for it as soon as I felt like it. I think it was 2 or 3 weeks at most, had no problems.

My doctor never mentioned how long to wait I waited 9 days but wasn't great my hubby was worried about hurting me. But there after its been great. You know your body.

Surgery 7/25/12

I held out for two weeks and then my hubby and I were very careful. I would suspect that it would be easier as a male if you were on top, than a female on bottom. I would suggest females to get on top, less pressure on the incisions that way.

I wasn't in the mood for a few weeks. But the doc said as long as I don't carry or lift or do anything crazy your good as long as you take it easy.

about a week and half :D oh and the more you lose ... the better it gets!!!!

about a week and half :D oh and the more you lose ... the better it gets!!!!
