BEWARE SEX AFTER SURGERY QUESTION!!!

I need to find  a guy too

After a month of  boobie massages I say you are ready for sex.. This is a good question that I am afriad to ask my surgeon.   I am afriad he will tell me 6 weeks or more.  I figure I could tell if I was ready.  Just take is easy.

Melissa, you ain't gotta be ascared to ask your surgeon.  Just tell him what you want to do IN GREAT DETAIL, and if he's like my doc, he'll just shake his head and tell you to do what you've got to do...just carefully...within reason.   Works like a charm everytime!!!   Of course, with the LBL, that six weeks came and went and there was no need for the question!

I aM 2 WKS POST OP TUMMY AND MONS.... DR SAYS NO SEX ACTIVITY FOR 8 WKS, DOESNT'T WANT ABDOMINAL CONTRACTIONS OF ANY SORT... I AM NOT HAPPY BUT PLAN TO FOLL.OW HIS ADVICE.

That sound just about right, because my body feels really sore and I don't think I could handle it right now. Celia

I'm almost at 3 months and I haven't had sex yet. I'm still a bit sore & concerned, but mostly because I also had that large hernia repair.

Hi! I had a TT,  implants and lift on 1/28/08. I was told no sex for two weeks. I was almost made it the two weeks hehe. Took it easy and everything was fine but everyone is different. Good luck:-)

Just for the record, never be afraid to ask a question and especially not to your surgeon.  Sex is nothing dirty, come on.  We are all grown ups and sex is a part of grown up life.  Nothing at all to be ashamed of unless you're not doing it right.  LOL!!!!!  Had to get a joke in there. Sex should be resumed when you are ready.  You have to feel up to it, be sufficiently healed (no open wounds, etc.) and you have to take it easy.  No hanging from the chandelier for a while.  4 weeks really isn't completely healed internally and you don't want to go crazy and pull something in there.  If you are still in pain, still taking pain meds, still having problems standing upright, still moving around like a geriatric, then odds are probably good that you are not quite ready to be doing the horizontal mambo JUST YET.  But that's just my opinion.

I still say the best answer is the one that comes from the person who opened you up in the first place.

Uh and if I may be so bold, let me just throw out there that you mentioned that your EXBOYFRIEND is in town and then you bring up the sex question....

hmmmmmm I just want to offer one statement: remember the reason there is an "ex" on the beginning of that "boyfriend" before you proceed further. Okay, that is all.  Take care of yourself.
