Post operation labido problems.

My girlfriend had gastric bypass about 8 months ago. I wasnt sure where else to go and ive seen her on this site so i will ask it here. is a loss in labido a common side effect after having this surgery? It was pretty normal before but now its just dead. And by dead i mean non-existent. I cant realy talk with her about it without feeling like i am pressuring her for sex so i not sure what to do. Is this common? Or are there other problems. Thanks in advance for any help.

Mike, My wife and I both had surgery 2 years ago and have done well in keeping the weight off. I have not noticed a decrease of libido for either of us. There is an all men's board out the where you may be able to get more responses about this subject. Check it out: http://www.obesityhelp.com/forums/men Hope it helps. George

Hi Mike, I did not suffer that myself, but everyone is different. In addition to the men's board, there is a "Sex Before and After WLS" board, where sexual questions are the norm... Warning though, you will get some VERY frank answers!! Good luck to you and your honey!! http://www.obesityhelp.com/forums/sex_before_and_after_wls/posts.html Tami

Did they remove that forum? I follow your link, get the 'im over 18 click yes' thing then when I click yes, it takes me to the home page of OH.

Oh, never mind. I am in. I wasn't checking the boxes. I feel pretty stupid now lol. Kia

Don't feel stupid!! I've actually had problems getting myself from time to time.
