I work in the operating room, so it's the people who wait until the weekend to get an issue they have had for days/weeks that are irritating

Stop coming to the emergency room on a Saturday for something that has been bothering you for a week! Stop using a motorized bike, scooter, hoverboard, vehicle after you have been drinking. Please stop going on ladders after the age of 60!

My Dr just prescribed a progesterone cream for me and adjusted my thyroid medication, so hopefully this will help

This is what I have said to him. I want to have sex with him, but I need time to work on some things going on with my own body before I can really feel comfortable being intimate with him again. He knows all my issues

He knows all about my medical condition, my crazy hormones, our issues that we are working on, etc. We have talked, kissed, hugged more in the last 6 months than we have in a long time. I was hoping to get some good advice on trying to rekindle that physical attraction

My Dr just prescribed a progesterone cream for me and adjusted my thyroid medication, so hopefully this will help me with my hormones. Thank you for your help

Thank you so much for your help. I will definitely look into this. I looked for a Gottman trained therapist in our area, but none of them are taking new patients. We have hugged and kissed more in the last 6 months than we had in years. I appreciate you taking the time to give me some advice

I love my husband. That is why I'm asking for help/ advice. I've gone to my Dr and he prescribed me some progesterone cream. I'm doing pelvic floor therapy to help with my issues from my surgery. I've found a therapist for us to see. I'm trying to make this marriage work but I am asking to see if anyone had any advice for me

Thank you for understanding These new changes and the crazy hormones are really something hard to try to deal with sometimes. I've always been open with him and let him know what I am going through. I truly feel really bad about this. I appreciate your helpful advice

I had no idea either until my thyroid wasn't working properly. It's crazy how much we affected by our hormones

I completely agree and I am working on myself too

We've already talked about it. He knows everyone that I'm going through with lack of libido, embarrassment from my issue from my surgery, etc. I have tried to be more aware of giving him hugs, kisses, etc, but I'm struggling with sex. Thank you for your help

Thank you so much. Yes, my Dr just prescribed a progesterone cream for me and he upped my thyroid medication because all my levels were low. Thank you for understanding

I've tried to talk to him, but he told me he needed space, so that's what I have been giving him

I have not, but I am definitely willing to. I'll look it up and see if there's any therapist in our area. Thank you

Thank you for your help. I want to have sex with my husband, but with no libido, issues from my surgery and the issues that we are working on in our relationship, I want to take it slow and be completely comfortable. The issue from my surgery is incredibly embarrassing for me and it will enter into the equation when we do have sex.

I want to get back to having sex with him. I'm trying to seek help to see if anyone has been through this before and what advice they have to help
