I actually asked my doctor...he said three weeks if I felt up to it...ask your doc if you have any questions.

How long after surgery until you felt well enough/ it was safe to have sex again?

I posted a reply under another area where you asked as well. But I had sex 6 days after surgery in a position that I felt was less stressful on my stomach muscles (read doggy style). Like deaddemama says, talk with your doc. If your doc says to wait, he/she's the boss and has the best grasp on the state of your body, inside and out.

I stay away from positions where I'm getting my stomach squished like full missionary. There are many positions out there that don't cause you to get squished or strain your stomach muscles. I don't know if I could go three weeks.

My doctor said 1 week. If I remember correct it was like week and a half. My hubby was worried about hurting me so it was a challenge.

Surgery date 7/25/12

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
