Sex. Seriously how long after surgery should I wait?



Recommended Posts

Sex was never a problem for me. I’m just wondering how long did you guys wait to start having sex again. I’m 3 days out, probably to soon...

My Dr said ok to go at 4 weeks!

8- days Pffft! 4 weeks! I would never be able to wait 4 weeks. Just sayin'

How sore are your incisions - abdomen? I would go by that. No gymnastics and no crazy positions.

I suggest side-by-side or some other 'not much full frontal' contact position. You can always abandon the attempt ya know and go for a 'different' creative finish.

Wait?? Why would anyone wait! ☺️ J/K I say once the pain stops the fun starts. I have two children both born by cesarean and boy did I not wait 6 weeks. Bad bad me 😂

Thanks for the ideas. There is no way I’m waiting 4 weeks. Honestly my soreness just feels like I did an intense an workout.

I'm sure the recommendation to wait is just like exercise, to allow a full recovery and prevent a hernia.

However, I imagine the time period in the real world is different for everyone.

Being overweight has definitely impacted my libido so 4 weeks is probably a shorter period than what our current rotation is. lol Hoping this surgery helps me get back on track.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
