Sex, sex, sex.... all I think about...

DVH- 2 weeks out... Kept overies, removed cervix....
Please tell me it is normal to think and want sex so badly....
Before surgery I hurt so bad that I did not even want to think about sex. Now I am wanting it all the time.
I know we have to wait and we are fine with that but each day feels like torture....
My hubby would never take a chance on hurting me so he wont even play around... not sure if that is even aloud yet...

well anyways.... just wanted to know if it is normal or am I fastly becoming a sex feind?

It's normal for some of us! I don't know what knobs they twiddled in there when they did my surgery, but I had the same thing happen. And look at my surgery date ... still haven't found the 'off' button.

Husband is confuzzled by this development ... but pleased, I think.

I am the same way!!! Im only 6 days post op and feel like im going to go Crrrazy! I can't keep my hands off my Hubby! Im young so maybe that has a little to do with it but I just feel like I need it so badly!!! Hey! Yeah! When can you "play" or test out the Umm....functionality?

I am 49 ... and feel like the sex drive was turned back to 18, lol. Or up to 11, depending on how you want to think about it.

It'll be up to your doctor to tell you when you can go back to normal, um, activities, because we're all different. For many/most of us it seems like 6 weeks is the usual amount of time, provided things heal normally. I took a bit longer than that.

Oh! Gosh! 6 days in 6 weeks seems like a life time! Im 23 but my husband is 22 and at that age he is like nothing but testosterone!!! Im not sure how to keep him fulfilled! I guess if my mother would have been in the picture during my life id have her to confide in. Im afraid he might get bored with no activities! Any advice???

I was the same way and still am the same way, I have my 6 week post op appt TOWMORROW and am praying I get the all clear cause the last 4 weeks have been torture LOL.... I can not wait to become normal again, none the less my husband and I celebrated our 2 MONTH anniversary kissing each other goodbye while they wheeled me into the operating room for my total hysterectomy.... So I am so ready to start the honeymoon!!!!!!!!!!

I didn't think about sex when I was wake during recovering; however, I had a sexual dreaming every night in the first week of the surgery. In the my dreaming, I either got rape by someone, or had sex with a strange person, and I felt like I turned back teenage, dream...dream about sex lol...but no orgasm, more scared. I didn't tell my dream to anyone becuase I felt embarrass....lol....
I am 39, I don't want to think about sex before my doctor say ok becuase I do not want to any extra pain... Well, if my body wants it, let it occurs in the dream lol...I am joking. So happy to share with everyone.

Oh, boy, for the first six weeks it was on my mind a LOT. I don't have any advice on how to cope other than to avoid anything that might make the "urges" worse.
