Hi everyone
Not been back for a couple of years as was doing ok with mental health but I need some support with a question.
I had a radical hysterectomy 4 years ago and sex has been ok at times but sometimes it’s painful. I have stopped making my partner horny as I don’t want to have sex as I’m not enjoying it.
Does anyone else still have painful sex and should I speak to my oncologist about it?
I can’t tell me my partner as he will stop having sex with me and I’m scared he’ll leave me.
I hope someone can help me
Thank you
Hi Peace73
It’s been a long time since I saw your name pop up, so hello again!
I’m not able to give you any relevant advice as our situations are very different, but I hope others might be able to help. However, I’d absolutely have a word with your oncologist or at least your CNS. When did you last have a check up?

I’ve had a lot going on to be fair, but I’m still here…I have updated my profile with my latest info, which is too long to get into!
