What did you (or the wife) need to get them? Was this the reason for anyone else? Do you attribute the drop in sex drive to the operation or was it an excuse?

Sorry to put this in your thread Baltoman. I am new here and not sure how else to ask.


No problem. My wife had large fibroids as well. The sex drive has always been an issue however the character changed dramatically after the surgery. She used to O very easily. She does not at all anymore. Before, even when the frequency was lacking, there would be times where she was very into it. Where she would lose herself in the moment. That no longer happens. Now it is perfunctory. No deep kissing, most of her body is "too sensitive" so is off-limits (personally breasts that are painful and overly sensitive for almost two straight years seems like a physical problem to me, but what do I know?), everything according to a script she seems to have running in her head: "ok, enough of this, a couple of strokes there, oh sh!t, he wants to go down, gotta put a stop to that, make sure we are on his side of the bed, now roll on my back and hopefully it'll go quickly". Just a "get it on and get it over with" mentality.

Damn, that sounded bitter. I didn't start out intending it to sound like that but I got on a roll.
