Re: Raging libido
Scrapped, I'm sure if my husband was home there would have been some intimacy, lol! I've already made reservations at the Dragon in Seoul!! I'm hoping I can stay longer just in case we have those awkward first couple of times that everyone talks about!

Raging libido
Talk to your Dr at f/up appt. My Dr actually cleared me for 'gentle' sex after 2 week f/up. She said see how you feel nothing rough and take it from there.

Re: Raging libido
I can not tell a lie!! After reading WomanRoars post I tried outercourse. I must admit I was scared but not in pain. I did get a "O" and it was no different than before. It was just as strong...no change! I am 11 days post op and had a Greta "O"...the sun is still shining! Can't wait to explore with my hubby!

Re: Raging libido
I have been following this post and I have to admit that I have been so scared about outercourse because I did not know if it would hurt anything. I have my 2 week follow up Thursday so I am totally asking!!! My husband looked at calendar to see when I would be at 6 weeks and realized he will be gone that week for SWAT training. He joked that with my raging libido he would not put it past me to drive up for a conjugal visit.....lol!! I think the extra week will be good though for healing purposes!

Re: Raging libido
NicoleL, I'm one day after you! Didn't hurt a bit. I did have to remind myself to breathe because I was nervous. My doc doesn't even want to see me at two weeks if I had no issues, which I haven't. She wants to see me at 2 months. At least I released some stress!!! Ahhhhhhhhh!

Re: Raging libido
I hope you ladies are checking with your doctors first before going ahead with outercourse. It worries me when I read about women engaging in activities that may lead to problems down the road. Each doctor will have their own advice/care restrictions so one person saying, "I did it and it was fine" certainly doesn't warrant it ok for everyone. Just being a Nervous Nellie here...lol!

Re: Raging libido
While doc and I had discussed "intercourse" before...we had never discussed "outercourse". On Friday when he was at hospital releasing me..I mentioned it...he paused at first...then was like "just to be safe...no". Of course, this won't stop me from asking again at my 2 week check up.
Although it seems like such a long time off and I definitely haven't lost the drive...I don't wanna mess up and have to reheal things.

Re: Raging libido
(((Ladies))),
Please remember that when discussing sexual issues, please use a mature tone and appropriate language. Please refrain from using explicit or graphic descriptions. I understand how important it is to be able to discuss these kinds of issues after a hysterectomy when we are so uncertain how our bodies will respond. Our Terms of Service require that all such discussions are PG rated, not just words but descriptions. This is not a private site. It is public and international.
Also, just as importantly, please do not engage in any kind of sexual or intimate activity of any kind until you have been cleared by your doctor. That includes pleasing your partner as you may become aroused and engaging in outercourse. Here is an article that explains why you should wait for clearance. Please do not hesitate to ask you doctor what activities you are allowed to engage in. They have heard it all, and more than once. If you can't get an appointment to ask, make a phone call. If you have engaged in sexual activities without first getting clearance from your doctor, please contact your doctor and tell her/him what happened so you can be sure you have not caused any damage and to ensure that it is alright for you to continue.
I hope you all continue to do well, and please play it safe.
