Would having a hysterectomy cause woman to stop having sexual needs?

Q: in other words can a woman still have an orgazime and still become wet when a penis penatrates her vagina? Or is it true?.. Of what I have always heard, and that is if ( woman has had hysterectomy she must always use K-Y Jell). Because she cannot get wet on her own anymore.Sorry ladies, I just didn’t know how to phrase it. maybe someone can understand what I am asking.

A: i had my hysterectomy 11 weeks ago. i have a higher sex drive (i didnt think that was possible) the orgasms are more intense, and i have no problem getting wet. keep the ovaries if you can. they control the hormones and keep you from getting dry.

What can cause a 54 year old woman to have trouble completing sentences?

Q: A woman close to me is having a lot of trouble coming up with simple words even if she is even staring right at an object. She wants to say ‘thing’ and ‘stuff’ all of the time. It’s not like she can’t remember it, she can think of the first letter and knows what it is and why she wants to use the word, but she just can’t think of i unless she really concentrates for 10 seconds. She also has trouble spelling even simple words. There is no memory loss, but when stressed she can get emotional and flustered. She is menopausal, but menopause isn’t complete yet. There are 3 benign cysts on her uterus. Her doctor wants her to have a hysterectomy, but she doesn’t want it because she’s afraid it will change her personality.She takes antidepressants and her doctors have switched her through a dozen medications over the last two years and she’s really frustrated because nothing is helping and there are no clear answers. Everyone says it’s just menopause, but it’s been going on for 3-5 years. There is a history of Alzheimer’s in the family and that’s a big elephant in the room.Good advice has been hard to come by, some doctors are recommending she pursue disability for age-related dementia, but she still wants to work and another doctor says she wouldn’t get disability for that. It’s a maddening situation and any advice any of you would have would be a big help. Thanks in advance.

A: The symptom you’re describing is called “motor aphasia”, and it’s neurological. It *might* be caused by medication, but medications are usually not so specific in effect, so it might be caused by damage to “broca’s speech area” of the cerebral cortex. Such damage can be the result of a stroke, a tumor or a degenerative disease like MS, lupus or Alzheimer’s – and this is not an exhaustive list by any means.Your friend definitely needs to see a neurologist ASAP to find out why this is happening. It’s possible that she’s very, *very* ill. It might (or might not) be very easily treatable, but it also might be dangerous if left alone.

Hysterectomy?

Q: I am seriously contemplating having a hysterectomy. I am finished having my children. I am 42 this year. I have fibroids which causes heavy loss every month & I gain 2 kg a week before my period and loose when finished. (Not to mention PMS)The only thing stopping me is the side effects. Eg; Weight gain! I am only 5ft tall and try and keep my weight stable due to health issues. I would like to keep my ovaries! Any women out there who has had a Hysterectomy? And what is your opinion? Is it worth it? Does it bring on early menopause?

A: I had a hysterectomy at the same age, I bled so heavily and for so long at a time that my red blood cell count was dangerously low and I needed transfusions. As you get older you will tend to gain weight with or without the hysterectomy, its better to gain a few pounds than lose that much blood.You can have a hysterectomy without the ovaries being removed then you will go through menopause at the usual time. Is it worth it? You bet, if you aren’t bleeding all the time you have more energy, you can do more, go more places.I know this sounds silly, but the first thing I did was buy the most beautiful lace trimmed set of WHITE sheets and pillowcases, something I could never have done before.I had no fibroids they had no idea what was going on, not all fibroids give you heavy periods, and you can have heavy periods without the fibroids being the cause.
