Well I had one 5 years ago due to a basketball sized tumor. There are a lot of questions-
Are you having your ovaries removed? If not you will most likely NOT go into menopause for at least 5 years. I had a short period of about 8 months after the surgery where I was hormonally challenged and having hot flashes etc then my hormones kicked back in because I have my ovaries still. That being said it is also common to go in to menopause early when you have had your uterus removed.
Cervix??? I went in to my gyn and literally told him that I needed to remain a goddess. That my sex life was the bomb and I wanted my orgasms to stay as awesome as they had always been. Soooooo we decided to keep my cervix. Guess what? My orgasms still changed drastically as there is no uterus attached and apparently I had uterine contractions with my orgasms that gave me a very full bodied orgasm. I wish I had not kept mine. It can cause you to spot when you would normally have a period and means you must still have a papsmear every year as opposed to every 3 years.
Sex was affected. Mostly because of my head not my vagina. My orgasms are different now. I do not have as powerful and satisfying ones but I can now have multiples fairly easily. I do not have any of the dryness issues some women report and I think I am still capable of pleasing my partner.
If you have not gone to the HysterSisters website do so immediately. They helped sooo much when I was preparing and also for my recovery which was long due to not being able to remove the tumor vaginally so I had a 13 inch incision hip to hip. The recovery was really hard for that. I remember OldFart and his Mrs. came to visit during that time and I was still sooooooo sore.
I am glad to offer any info or support I have. ((hugs)) I think if you ask people I am still as sexual now as I was prior to the surgery.
