Re: 6 weeks post hysterectomy (TVH) not excited about being oked for sex
dacie, I am sorry your night turned out like that. I think I may understand where you're coming from. Relationships are all about give and take... You feel he's been very patiently waiting for you for years now, so you wanted to do something for him. We all do things for each other occasionally that we may not be completely into at the time... as long as it's your choice (which it seems like it was) I don't think that's a terrible thing. He may not have been aware of how difficult it was for you. I think the focus should be on communication, and I suggest you keep the dialogue open with him. You don't want love-making to become a chore, and I'm sure he doesn't want that either. I know in my own experience, I need to know my partner gets where I'm at emotionally for me to really connect with him. And that can be the most arousing thing ever. Please keep talking to him, Sweetie. He can't know if you don't tell him.

Re: 6 weeks post hysterectomy (TVH) not excited about being oked for sex
Just came home from my 6 week check up today. My Dr told me at least two more weeks before intercourse. My hubby said well, we can always have putter course. I am on the same page as you. I can't even imagine sex for another month or two. I have been "taking care" of him but, he is waiting for the two weeks and reminds me daily. I also feel pudgy and my belly is still a little swollen and sore. This does NOT make you feel sexy in the least. Hopefully In a few weeks I will feel a little different about this. Again I totally feel ya. Also, I have to go back to work tomorrow and will be exhausted 😔

Dacie, I think all your feeling is so normal. I haven't had an orgasm yet because every time we do I am thinking of the surgery and what all my body went through and I'm like 14 weeks post op and was cleared for sex after 4. Haven't hurt or bled from it at all. Personally I think your ovary or both have slacked and when they start up again your libido will take off! Hang in there. Sex isn't my fave thing right now either but I love being desired by my husband and want to be with him in that way too just like you did. Hugs!!

Re: 6 weeks post hysterectomy (TVH) not excited about being oked for sex
Hi Dacie.......
I see we share a surgery date/type.......
I am off for my 6 week post op check today have to say that I feel much the same as what you wrote....absolutely no interest in ever having sex again, still tired and after gaining 6 kg in 6 weeks I am not feeling comfortable in my own skin at this time.
Maybe after I return to work next week and get back into my regular routine I may start to feel a bit more optimistic about intimacy....fingers crossed!!
