Why did you use iboprophen with sex? Is that necessary? Just asking, I am in 12th day since implant (03/04/22). See the doctor for the first time this coming Monday (21st). Really no discomfort, bruising or swelling. I religiously still take 600mg of Mortrim very 6 hours to help.
I have been asking myself how (if any) painful will the first time post op having sex be? Thanks
I never took any ibuprofen or any pain meds since my surgery. I was able to walk a couple miles a day within 3 days of surgery and have never had unbearable pain, just general discomfort from time to time, especially sitting. I am 8 weeks out. I was cleared for sex at week 4 and tried immediately, I was able to orgasm but the first event was almost unbearably painful. I tried twice more over the past few weeks, but it was too painful and frankly not worth it...LOL...so I avoided it until just the last couple days. The last experience was a bit painful but much better now after 8 weeks. So depending on your pain tolerance you may need some pain meds the first few weeks after you are cleared. Noticing the difference in pain level between week 4 and week 8, at this rate of progression in the next 2-3 weeks I expect to be pretty pain free...and nobody should lay down near me after that.
How is your pain level now during sex?
