Post op Sex question for those who have experience
Well...I am around 9-10 weeks post op and last night was the first encounter of the intimate kind, if you know what I mean. My question of the day is, what kind of lubrication is the best to use? We tried KY but it didn't seem to be enough and seemed uncomfortable to me and a little dryish. Who uses what and what works the best?

Post op Sex question for those who have experience
We used Astroglide and it worked great. We had our surgery on the same date and I waited til almost 8wks the first time. It was a little uncomfortable at first. The second time was right at 9wks and that went well without the Astroglide! Just take your time and let your body guide you.

We have used KY, Astroglide and have just tried Silk, I like the Astroglide better, but dh prefers the Silk, he says it isn't as sticky as the others. I have heard some great comments on the Intimate moisture sold in the Hystersister store, but I have never tried it. Good Luck, Carol

Post op Sex question for those who have experience
I am 3 days shy of my 6 week post-op and all I can say is that I am MORE than ready to get intimate with hubby again. Thanks for the tips and suggestions on lubricants. Not sure I will need it but it is good to know what you all like

I used the new ky warming spray and thought it was sticky, so I went back to my all time favorite coconut oil...it smells great, is never sticky, and feels normal. I can get it at the natural foods department of my store...a jar lasts forever, too. Since the hyst I have needed lubricant for the first time ever.
Have fun!
