After surgery, did you find that your sex life got better as you got thinner or did it become non existent?

How long should a person wait before having sex after Surgery?

My doctor says 3 weeks

grrr. Too long lol but an acceptable answer.

My doc said as soon as you feel able.

I like that answer too. I feel I'm able. Going to bed, goodnight! LOL

Post surgery feedback required for Australian student studying our surgeries.. Please share and take the survey :-) thanks

My doctor said whenever I felt up to it so my surgery was on a Monday, got home late Wednesday night had sex Friday morning. It wasn't painful you just have to be extra careful. I did find that we're more active since my surgery.

Farthest thing from my mind right now lol.

I am still too uncomfortable in my own skin for sex...my poor hubby

My doc said 6 weeks but I also had a hysterectomy at the same time.

MommyMeghan, you had a hyst also, I do hope your recovering good. Best wishes

I did and I am actually feeling fantastic! Thank you :-)

I have zero desire, 2 weeks out. My doc says whenever I feel up to it physically and emotionally.

I feel like I'm hitting puberty all over again. It's like once the weight has come off I'm finding that I was less sexually active when I had the extra weight on... and my spouse always complained before hand. Now I can only imagine. I've always been comfortable with sex being an outlet to let out frustrations etc.

my doc said min 2 week wait then proceed based on how you feel

We waited almost 2 weeks. No issues. We have sex often and always have. I think I feel more confident now so it's been better.
