After gland removal?
Posted , 3 users are following.
hi,
ive had one of these annoying cysts since i was 16, and now years later, we have tried lancing, and word catheter. Every time it comes back within a few days. Because of this i've never had intercourse (and lets face it im ready to live my life). My doctor is now recommending full gland removal since nothing is working. Can someone tell me what to expect after? I'm all for getting rid of it and moving on but I can't get an answer of how gland removal changes sex, appearance, daily life, etc. Is there obvious scar tissue? Any answers would be appreciated

hi. there i had my right gland removed in oct. I do have scar tissue and im still tender when having sex. but its getting better. the pain sucked for about 2 to 3 weeks.
it took about 6 weeks to recover for me. as in using the bathroom ok. and about 10 weeks to have sex again. I hope this helps. this is just my experience

i had both removed. recovery was long & painful. i can only speak from my experience but my husband & I went from having a very satisfying sex life to none at all. I tried for a while but there was 0 enjoyment in it for me. all sensation seems to be gone. i hope you have better results. mine could have been just a fluke.
