www.tootimid.com

very nice site and helpful customer service. as for an oil, use almond or jojoba, better as a lube and no scent. same messy factor, but you may have to live with that.

best wishes~what an awful situation!

Hi Hannah,
You might find some useful ideas in the www.breastcancer.org forum thread "I want my mojo back!" at
http://community.breastcancer.org/topic/7/conversation/69566
Might take you a while to read through it - it's 62 pages long!
Cheers,
Ed.

I'm getting surgery for my vagina on Friday. I have to pick up a scary looking set of dialators for after. I'm getting mine from a pharmacy.

I'm glad you're bringing this up.

I never did hear how this surgery went -- are you recovered and happy with the results? Hope so!

Hi there,

I have it too but don't have the answers you're looking for. My husband and I stick to doing it every other possible way. Lot's of tongues and lots of all over the body hands, lots of love and sweetness with no penetration. It's not our time for penetration, we both did lots of penetration before the cancer and before we met, this is our time for other stuff. I hope this helps in some way! Enjoy.....

I think it brilliant that you seem to have all managed to still keep and want a sex life. I have no idea how to get that back. With menopause then chemo..... And since I don't feel very pretty I would rather just sleep and be left alone. I think my husband is very unhappy. I KNOW my husband is very unhappy.

Oy, I hear you -- sex is so hard with surgical menopause plus a "vaginal cuff" instead of a cervix. It is a lot of more difficult to keep the intimacy going without the same amount of sexual activity.

In theory I know I want a sex life but I have no desire at this point. At least I don't have a partner to torture. I'm not sure if it would be pointless to try and date before I have one because I may just be setting someone up for disappointment.

I would like a significant guy in my life, though.

Update. I just had my follow up after my surgery and things are looking good. The surgeon didn't think things would go so well but at this point they are okay! I just have to use the dialators every day which I really hate. It's getting a little easier, though.

So far, so good.
