Question:
Embarrasing Sexual question for the ladies
Ok I have to be blunt, did things get a lot more senstive as you lost weight? Suddenly sex hurts, like he is getting in way too deep. I am guessing from weight loss even the genital area has thinned down. But the upside is that I do enjoy things more when there is no pain that is. Wendy RNY 10/29/02 259/196/145 — Wendy H.

Wendy,
Not sure about the pain aspect. That would be a concern however I find
with the weight loss we are getting alot 'closer' and are exploring areas
that 'no man has gone before'. lol.

Wendy...it's the weight that you have lost that allows your husband to
achieve deeper penetration. You'll have to work on trying positions that
limit the amount of penetration that your husband can make. Maybe with
you on top where you control how deep he goes. Have you let him know that
it hurts when he goes too deep? If you let him know, then he can help in
this regard too...JR

I completely know & relate to what you are going through! What I do is
if he goes to deep, move him, or say hey, this isn't feeling good, next
position! Have fun & congrats on your fantastic loss!

Hi Wendy! Great loss!! I think it's the weight loss as well, but would be
sure & let my Dr. know. There is endometreosis that can cause pain
during sex which is scar tissue. Check it out - don't just assume! IMHO
of course!

Wendy,
I am 6 months post op and have also experienced pain when he goes too deep.
My husband considers it quite the compliment! However, I have noticed
that my sensitivity to this has declined some in the past couple of months.

OK, embarrassing answer: He might be hitting an ovary (while in certain
positions.) if he penetrates too deep. Not hitting the actual ovary, of
course, but pushing tissues, muscles, etc. into one of them. (That's the
female equivalent to a guy getting swatted in the testicles.)I read about
this feeling in the "Joy of Sex".

I've found that a pillow placed between your two pelvics will ease the
depth (and pain) considerably until you become more accustomed to your new
body. Just a tip :>) Good luck!

I have to second Monika's answer.... I must say that I am 5 months post-op
and sex has been wonderful for my husband and I. Yes, penetration is
deeper, but to have sex in a "normal" position...him on top has
been a thrill! I am 100lbs down and going=)
