8 weeks postoperative. Sexual pain
I'm at 8 weeks post op. My dr said still had a few stitches at my 6 week appt to be careful with sex. So I was. It's been painful but no bleeding or cramping till last night, hubby went a lil too deep and I started bleeding and horrible cramping. Didn't help me emotionally at all. Will it ever be "normal" sex again? I had breast cancer so no hrt for me and honestly feel great other than hot flashes

Re: 8 weeks postoperative. Sexual pain
I just had my 7week follow up on Thursday and asked the "painful sex" question...she told me it may hurt the first few times..she told me to go super slow. She said it wouldn't be forever. Then she reminded me it can take 3-6 months to completely heal... I also asked her what to do if there is spotting after sex and she told me the start and beginning of the internal stitches can take a bit longer to heal and that is where blood would come from. Sorry your DH is not supportive. Some men are silly!! I have the clearance to have a date with my husband but reading everyone's experiences I am sooo scared! Every time I go to the washroom I still expect to see blood. I guess that's because pre surgery I had my period for months at a time with only a day or two in between.

No he's very supportive I'm the emotional butt. I'm Scared we won't have our awesome sex life again. I didn't mean to sound like he wasn't. He has always been amazing. I'm just tired of hurting and now bleeding again. Feel like I need to sit on a pillow!! thanks for sharing what your dr said

Re: 8 weeks postoperative. Sexual pain
OMG! Sorry I totally read that wrong!! I thought u ment "he" didn't support you emotionally. You ment "the issue" !! Glad to hear he is! I feel aweful for the women that dont get support. Are you bleeding or just spotting? If it is a lot you should get checked. If just spotting, hang in there! My Dr guaranteed me if i see any spotting and have pain it will all work out over some time.
