So I'm six months post op I'm down 112lbs!! And I'm having some sex troubles that hopefully someone can help me out with! My fiancé and I have been together 7 years in march and we've always had a great sex life. Ever since surgery and losing all this weight I'm understandably horny all the time, but here's the issue, I can't seem to stay wet or even get wet sometimes. I've never had this issue before. Anyone know why or what I can do about it? Please help!!

Get a silicone based lube. They are awesome! Never sticky or Gummy. Our go to is the Wet Platinum, but the last time I was at Walmart they had the other brand.

Our nut has told us that fat cells contain a lot of estrogen. I believe lol, that you have lost a lot of fat cells! Maybe your hormones aren't keeping up. I'm sure they will balance back in time, unless you are premenopausal, and either way, those suggested lubes will help you for now.

It's an unfortunate side effect with rapid weight loss. The hormonal levels will stabilize but in the mean time try the KY Liquidbeads. IMG_5927.JPG

I waited 10 days. It was fine. I have to use lubricant anyhow because I had my ovaries out 5 years ago and am on hormone replacement.

Careful with some of the lubricants you try and use. Some use silicone base as the lubes lubrication, and while that might last longer than Water base lubes, it can cause irritation issues. If you're prone to getting yeast infections or you or your partner are allergic to silicone then avoid using these, and instead use the water base lubes. The only down side to them is that they don't have a long lasting affects like the silicon ones do, so If you don't produce natural lubrication, then you'll be reapplying water based lubricants more frequently than their silicone counterparts.

Good luck and happy jack rabbit humpings to you.

      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!!
