??Sex and questions???
Ok. So I had my cervix, uterus, Fallopian tubes removed. Kept both ovaries. No issues. Was released Dec 28 for everything. I looked on here to see if I saw this question- nope. So here it goes!! Sorry if TMI. 1. Does our body still produce the lubricant now? 2. Am I able to have an orgasm! Sorry. Just kind of worried. Thank you ladies in advance. P.s. surgery was Nov.15. No complications or anything.

I would like to know this as well, hopefully I'm released soon, I was extended 2 more weeks of no sex after I made it to 6 weeks.

Re: ??Sex and questions???
Congrats on a good recovery! I will try and answer you from at least what I've experienced:
1. I still have some lubrication but did experience vaginal dryness about 4 mos post op. Not sure if its necessarily from surgery or the fact that I'm 46. Since October I have been on a vaginal estrogen which seems to have plumpled things back up down there and I have not needed any lubricant.
2. I have had no problems with orgasm. However I will say when I was initially cleared, I had no feeling down there. It took a few weeks until I felt comfortable and healed enough down there to even try. That is also when I began to experience tingles in that area. I'm thinking things were not healed enough at 6 wks but 10 wks was my magic number.
Hope that helps sister!

I haven't noticed any decrease in lubrication and was able to orgasm on our first attempt (7.5 weeks post op).

Re: ??Sex and questions???
Okay I think It's vaginal dryness, what do I do to resolve that? I did good with four play and I was able to have a few orgasms with his fingers doing all the work. lol. I'm not as cranky, so I think he was have to oblige, ha ha.

Hi Gabster,
Next time you are in your supermarket, have a look in the pharmacy isle... there are lots of lubricants you can buy, but would probably recommend a non fragrant one for now, so as not to irritate...
Have fun xx
