Sex after Stroke

Somebody asked me how about sex after menopause and after a stroke. Here are some advice for your readings.

There are many people that live through the ordeal of life taking after a stroke. However many are not sure what is about to happen to their body and they are not uncertain of what to expect in the future as far as their relationship goes. Can you have sex after a stroke? This is the question on many minds of stroke victims and partners.

It is safe to say that there are many elderly and younger people that can safely enjoy sex after they have had a stroke. They can enjoy the same pleasures that they did before with no problems at all. There is no reason why a couple cannot go on with the life that they had before the stroke occurred.

It is very important to remember that sexuality is not just the act of having sexual intercourse. It will involve much more. You need to feel feminine or masculine and attractive to yourself and your partner. Think about the way that you feel and how you look. Is there more to what you can do to make yourself feel more attractive and able to enjoy yourself and your partner even more after you have had a stroke.

There should be no physical limitations to a stroke victim having sex after a stroke. As long as the doctor said that is ok for a person to resume normal activity a stroke victim should be fine to enjoy a normal and healthy sex relationship again. This is something that should make a person feel good and better about himself or herself after such a terrible ordeal.

Your feelings about your body maybe a problem at first because you may not feel the same way that you once did about your looks or ambition. You may have physical handicaps or noticeable problems with your facial expressions, but you are still the same person. In fact you are stronger than what you were before and you deserve to have your life back again. You have to be able to move on and maintain your life to some type of normal feelings again so that you can start living your life.

You will have to cope with the way that you have changed and then figure out a way to move past them. Make sure that you are ready to take on this challenge and fight for your life to get back to normal in all the different ways. Having a healthy and exciting sex life is something that you deserve and it is possible even after taking a stroke. Give yourself time and I am sure that your partner will wait as long as you need. All you need is s good method of support and the ability to make it happen again for you.

Don't forget to discuss with your family doctor because he has your medical record.
