Sex after Lap Band Surgery



Recommended Posts

I know, this may be a stupid question. But how long should you wait to have sex after surgery. I'm afraid that i may have moved my port. I am 2 1/2 weeks post op. Just a little discomfort but no sharp pain. Help!

I was about 2 weeks out of surgery when I tried it. I was the same a little bit of discomfort but no major pain. I had my surgery on 6/17 and I have no issues now. :P

I don't think it is a stupid question. I will be having surgery 7/27 and I was wondering the same thing. I am glad you asked :D

Thanks for your responses. I feel better today. But I do think it causes a little discomfort.

I wonder how we would know if our ports have moved? I'm thinking it would be really severe pain, but then again I don't know. I have felt quite a bit of discomfort after sex, but wasn't sure if I should be worried or not. You definitely had a legitimate question....not stupid at all!

Thats great. I asked my rep the same question last week. She said the question was posed at a seminar she was helping with. The dr said " Hummm. We would like you to wait till you leave the surgery facilites, but whenever you feel like it..... go for it".

When ever your ready. The pain in your port area is just the healing process... we all went thru that and still do. Every now and again, you will have discomfort in your port area. I'm 17 mts out and still have port pain.
