Women....painful sex after WLS?

[Foxy_lady 22]

That's weird since I'm one month post op and I feel like my sex drive is alot higher than my partners.

That sounds more like a UTI then. Should def go to GYN just in case,

Uh oh. I probably do then. Because after we tried it burned like hell to pee.

Just experienced this today. My sex drive has gone up since post-op but sex is difficult. No real scaring or wounds. My openings look more like scratches. So I felt comfortable giving it a try but it was not a good plan. Lol

Ditto UTI, at about 2 months post op I had gotten bad about getting all my 64oz of Water in daily. Hubby and I had intercourse and it was exactly as you described. I hadn't had a UTI in so long that I didn't figure out what was going on until I started having some lower back pain and blood in my urine. Went to MD and sure enough it ended up being a UTI. They said they are very common post VSG if you are not getting all of your Water in.

Hey ladies! Update lmao: I went to the gyno just as a precaution, no uti- I was getting off my period, and I had just taken a tampon out. I didn't even put two and two together, I feel so dumb wasting a trip there, but now I know lol. Me and my partner waited another week and we tried again and everything was functioning normally, and a lot better too

You get an "A+" for effort in my book, though.

My surgeon told me to wait at least 3 weeks so I haven't tried yet but I sure hope it's not affected

Three weeks???? I didn't even wait three weeks after a C-section! Maybe your surgeon thinks missionary, man-on-top is the only position.
