Anyone Afraid Of Having Sex After A Hysterectomy?
A MyEndometriosisTeam Member asked a question 💭

I know it’s not supposed to hurt anymore but I think I’ve numbed myself from feeling aroused. It’s affecting my marriage.

Yes. One orgasm and I would end up in the ER for pain up to one week after. Why would I want to do that to myself? I scared one partner so bad after I had a pain so bad I flew across the bed, falling out of bed. I’m not sure who felt worse.
Every partner always says… sex doesn’t matter. It will be fine. A few months down the line and said partner feels unwanted and resentful. Nope it’s not happening again.

Thank you, it does! It’s 4am over here though and I’m about to keel over. I didn’t know that these bowel symptoms were common. You’d think a doctor would know that. It’s been about 4 months now with this. Maybe I’m just being impatient and im still healing.

Anyway, thank you. Looking forward to reading more.

🙏🏽Thank you. I guess I’m still having a hard time with everything else psychologically. I’m barely 30. I wanted kids. I continue to have issues with my bowel. I have to go as soon as I eat. The doctors think its in my head. It’s like having endo all over again to back when it took over a decade for them to believe me about my pain. I’m just disappointed of the outcome.
