Have a question, Ok we are all adults here or most time anyway. Is it normal to lose all of your sex drive on TX. I notice lately my want and desire for being intimate is almost like a memory. I miss the days of dressing up in in my fire gear climbing throw the window to save the wife. "LoL" Just kidding or I'm I?

I can definitely relate. I only feel in the mood on Thursdays or Fridays, and shot night is Monday. My poor hubby has been through the ringer. God Bless all you spouses!

I think tx effects everyone differently. It could be more of a depression issue. When your depressed and feel like crap you don't feel like doing anything fun. Tell your doc.

I think i can relate..... the desire comes and goes and i just take advantage when the notion is there.
Lord, i feel sorry for her when i'm done with tx............. LOL.

Very common while on treatment. Also, if you're on an antidepressant, that would also be a side effect from that.

daytaker 07/27/2009

Thx for the Info. I'm not on any antidepressant,

It is normal to lose your sex drive but you get it back after tx

deleted_user 07/27/2009

deleted_user 07/27/2009

yea , it can affect the libido, It taxes the mind and body as well....

deleted_user 07/27/2009

Hey, Daytaker
How many more weeks to go? Pretty soon sex may be a memory tucked in a far corner of your brain that will rest there until you get better. It happens. But, in our experience after a little time it gets better. Hugs, work to:)

Hasn't been an issue for me...us...been good all through TX. It can be a side effect, but doesn't have to be...

yea, while were being honest adults, while i was sick on tx my wang looked like a grubworm in a turtleneck sweater and was just about as useful. i was a sick sob. i barely had the strength to stand up much less have vigorous sex. i agree with tattman, daily infergen will not happen to me again.

deleted_user 07/27/2009

I don't do TX but I still don't feel the urge to go cattin around anymore! Might be the 9 surgeries, endless amounts of painkillers, being 49, or some mental thing !
Either way, Woody is just not interested like he was int the old days!!

Might be , I haven't met any really hot women lately!

I think someone as fine as Nicole, Twink, Gina and few others on this site,
might be all it takes to get my motor running!

A girl that knows how to kiss is a major attraction!

I believe any thing is possible!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

deleted_user 07/28/2009

yea marko, ya know casual sex doesnt interest me anyway. its all about sharing with someone you love and respect. glad your back on the board and feeling decent guy. oh and kissing, thats for teenyboppers. ill prefer a girl who gets straight to the point and cusses like a sailor.mmmmm, x-rated chatter.
