    Yes! Between the weight loss and getting started on HRT (I’m 52 and menopausal) my libido is as high as it’s ever been. One of the many benefits of this surgery :)

    I haven’t noticed a difference but have definitely heard that it happens. I am on medication that reduces mine though so maybe that why.
