After genderaffirming surgery, the ability to resume sexual activity varies depending on the type of surgery and individual recovery.
1. PostSurgery Recovery: After genderaffirming surgery, there is usually a recovery period during which doctors may recommend avoiding any activities that could put pressure on the surgical area, including sexual activity. The recovery time can range from a few weeks to several months, depending on the complexity of the surgery and individual recovery progress.
2. Pain and Discomfort: If there is still pain or discomfort in the surgical area, it is best to wait until these symptoms have improved before resuming sexual activity.
