Q: Resuming Sex After Surgery

Can anyone tell me how long you should wait before resuming sex after surgery, I had an ovarian cyst and ovary and fallopian tube removed 2 weeks ago by laprascopic surgery, my surgeon never mentioned how long I had to wait and I feel a bit embarrassed to ask my doctor, any advice from someone who has been in this position or who just knows how long you're supposed to wait would be welcome

Post Op Information
I am having some dysplasia removed from my cervix and my doctor recommended not having intercourse for 4 to 6 weeks. I don't know if our surgeries are much different with regard to recovery time. If you are having any bleeding, discomfort, or cramping, then definitely no intercourse. If you feel back to normal, I would take it slow and gentle. Believe me, i'm not looking forward to my 6 weeks recovery :cry:

Sex After a Lap
I have had two laps now, and both times the instructions were to wait at least 1 week. Today is the one week mark, but I am definitely too sore for that! I would say when your incisions are completely healed, but if you are really worried I would just call the Dr...Better to be embarassed than make the wrong decision! Good luck!
