Hi everyone,

My husband is going to have his hip replaced at age 53 he claims that he will loose more sexual desire because he won't be using it.is this true?I noticed he is losing some of it because it is painful to do it,but he masturbates everyday I guess he feels he will loose it if he doesn't keep on doing it.I just think its his age. Who's right?

He may be afraid. I find many after having a hip replaced will have a higher sex drive mostly be cause it no longer hurts.

I would help him masturbate so that you are still apart of his sexual life. Start it for him. You never know maybe you will find a new lease on life. Check the books to see how you can keep him aroused wilst his hip is healing. Learn to dance and have a sexy dance for him. Good luck to the both of you .

There are several comfortable positions in which you two can be so that he is not putting pressure on that hip before or after surgery. He definitely isn't fated for a sexless life after surgery! The missionary position is not the only one that works.

As a man (this from a man) he must have sex with you even if he doesn't feel like it (all medical conditions aside). If he is or soon to be functional without a great deal of pain he has to perform.

Don't allow him to get comfortable wankin himself and never consider your needs. Lovingly of course. :)
