Wait Until the Doctor Clears for Intimacy

You may feel ready – you may not – but after your hysterectomy you must not participate in intimate physical activities until the doctor gives you the green light.

There are internal stitches at the top of your vagina that need to heal and may get infected if anything is introduced into the healing environment.

Your doctor may have called it “Pelvic rest”.

When the doctor does clear you, consider using personal lubricant like Genneve Lubricant or Genneve Intimate Moisture.

Take time to heal.
