Embarrasing Question
WOW!!! I had my LAVH on the 22nd and I went for a post op visit yesterday and my dr. said my stitches hadn't even BEGUN to dissolve!!! DH and I got a little intimate last Saturday night, but I felt the tip of his finger and slapped his arm right away. NOT GOING THERE!!! You can do other things that can be fun also, and feel good too! I'd double check w/ that dr. if I were you. I would hate for you to have a problem arise and have to wait even longer. That would be a total bummer!!!!!
Take care,
Sunflour

Embarrasing Question
I had the same thing going on with me about the dryness. I tried KY and all sorts of different things, nothing worked. I eventually talked to my doctor about the embarrassing question, and he perscribed me an intervaginal cream. It is premerin cream thats inserted into the vagina every night for a week, then once a week there after. It is supposed to replace the natural moister in your body. It is GREAT! You dont have to worry about having to use a gel, or any other lube. Ask your doctor about it if you are having severe dryness. Also, I have been post Hyto for almost a year, and Sex is still uncomftorable. I dont tell my husband, I feel like it will hurt his feelings. I am just hoping it will go away.

Embarrasing Question
Well snot, I bought KY because I was in a hurry. So astroglide is better huh. I didn't use anything and it was good, but I think it can be much better. I must go to Target then!!!!
Wow, 4 weeks and the go ahead. Doc cleared me at 6 weeks but I waited 7 because I wasn't ready.

Embarrasing Question
Wow, I can't believe that your dr released you so soon. I think you need to give it a little more time. I just can't imagine being ready for intimacy that early post op. Wait till you are ready,mentally and physically. I'm sure your dh will be understanding and will want what is best for you. It takes a while to get back in to the swing of things, I think keeping lube on hand is a good idea. I am almost a year post op from a BSO and we need the lube most of the time. Best wishes and lots of 's, Carol
