Does a hysterectomy take away sexual feelings as I am facing having to have one. I am 50?


Does a hysterectomy take away sexual feelings as I am facing having to have one. I am 50?

No. There is no risk of pregnancy so you may feel even sexier than you do now, expecially if you take hormone replacement therapy. There are different meds, and some seem to stoke sexual interest. Try a few and see if one is better than others in this area. I had a hysterectomy at age 50 too.

Every person reacts differently, and reactions are a combination of emotional and physical responses. We still have much to learn about the effects of hysterectomy on sexual function.

Some women say they enjoy sex more after a hysterectomy, particularly if they had a lot of bleeding and pain beforehand. Some women feel more relaxed not worrying about getting pregnant.

Some women who have hysterectomies experience lower sexual enjoyment. There may be a number of reasons for this which are only partially understood.

I know several women who've had one for various medical reasons.

Absolutely not. However, you may be required to take hormones for the rest of your life.

It takes away the baby carriage but leaves the playpen?

no, my wife uses an estrogen patch and she is hot!!!
