Hysterectomy and sexual dysfunction
Common Questions and Answers about Hysterectomy and sexual dysfunction
hysterectomy
And then there are the problems associated with hysterectomy such as pelvic floor dysfunction and prolapse, altered anatomy and skeletal structures (spine, hips, rib cage placement and alignment leading to back, hip, midsection pain) and sexual dysfunction (reduced libido, arousal, response).
Estrogen has been shown to mitigate some of the risks of the loss or failure of ovaries and to improve quality of life.
I had a hysterectomy and sling procedure I was in excruciating pain at the time so was not at luxury to ask lots of questions and even the ones I asked were either answered incorrectly or not answered at all. I think one of the doctored steered me because he though I needed the procedure or worse yet he wanted the fee. However, it seems to me that the OB-Gyns and Urologists know almost nothing about female sexual organs as they function. They do not understand the nerves that supply sensation.
These include anatomical changes such as displacement of the bladder, bowel and vagina causing dysfunction, spinal compression and hip widening causing back problems (as well as figure changes). Sexual dysfunction is a common complaint. And ovarian function is oftentimes impaired which is associated with accelerated aging and earlier death since the ovaries produce health promoting hormones a woman's whole life.
s, memory and cognitive impairment, lung cancer, vision changes, hair and skin changes, sexual dysfunction. Estrogen may help with symptoms and may mitigate some of the risks.
When it hurts I try to tolerate it so I can please him. But he is a horn dog and pushy. Then it came to a point, I started reducing sexual activity. I would tell him I'm having an outbreak and didn't want to fool around. he would say it doesn't matter cause he has herpes too. This went on for a lonnng time. I would explain my concerns and he would blow me off. We have many arguments about this and I am at my end, enough to end this relationship.
Till I was 60yrs my libido was fantastic and I was enjoying my sex fully.Suddenly after that I could see I loosing interest in sexual activity.My erection is fine and normally erected in the early morning.I am not getting the erge or impulse to initiate the sexual game.My wife is also quite frustrated but quite understanding.
Pl advise what has gone wrong and how to regain my libido.I am not suffering from any desease as such.I am healthy and do my exersise regularly.
So I have been sexual active since I was 17+ and I am 25 now and I have never felt ant sexual please or have an orgasm. Even though I am pregnant I was hoping that maybe due to the hormonal changes I'd at least have an increase but absolutely nothing I can literally go years without sex, I use to feel horny but not anymore Idk what's going on with it and I find it disgusting and embarrassing to tel this doc this kinda situation at my age.
I have sought answers from many places, but sexual dysfunction is SO vague and people seem to take the cookie cutter approach to treatment. My husband has difficulty maintaining an erection (which I realize is part of the MS). Viagra and Cialis have not helped. Despite all of this, we still have a satisfying intimate relationship. But the real problem is that we are trying to get pregnant and 5 times out of 6, he is unable to ejaculate.
When you say sexual dysfunction ,do you refer to an erectile and ejaculation problem?
Do you experience any pain or deformity during erection or ejaculation?
When you say "no erection", does this happen 100% of the time?
Do you still get night time erections ?
Have you any previous infections or prior surgeries or instrumentation of the genitalia?
Any recent pain or problems with urination?
The severing of the ligaments to remove the uterus causes the midsection to collapse causing a shorter and thicker midsection as well as back, hip and leg problems in the long term. Sexual dysfunction is also a common complaint due to severed nerves reducing sensation as well as reduced or lost orgasms / loss of uterine contractions.
The large majority of hysterectomies and oophorectomies are unnecessary.
Hi... I"m sorry I missed your question.
Personally, I had my hysterectomy years before having been diagnosed with IC, so obviously having a hysterectomy didn't help me any. Know of some others that have had hysterectomy in an effort to help alleviate pain, but it hasn't done anything.
I'm not questioning whether or not you have IC, but I wonder if you've been checked for other things that cause similar symptoms, such as pelvic floor dysfunction, endometriosis, etc.
the doctor that i saw before the one that gave me the murina said i did need a hysterectomy and this doctor said that i could use this murina instead of the surgery. But now i am bleeding everytime we go to have sex are there any answers out there.
I had a hysterectomy and am suffering the many after effects. Knowing what I have since learned and experienced, I would not allow a hysterectomy unless I had cancer that was confirmed by a biopsy. And I would be sure the consent form clearly stated what type of surgery could be done.
I hope this info helps!
But if you and your S/O have discussed it and you are done having children and your Ob suggest it because of the health complications that are being caused then I would go forward with it. I know its scary because what if you all decide you want another baby because you are so young. If you are a spiritual person, I suggest praying about it and maybe mention it to you pastor or spiritual leader. Have them pray with you and ask God to lead you and guide you in the right direction.
I plan at this point to wait and see if his sexual function does return and when it does, to point out (ever so subtely) that maybe the problem was related to Effexor rather than his age and it might help him focus on the benefits of being off Effexor while experiencing withdrawal.
Again, thanks for letting me know Effexor related sexual dysfunction is not permanent. I will let you all know how it goes.
