This Friday I'm due to get a J-Pouch which I am both excited and nervous about!!
It says in the books I've read that sex can feel different and painful after having your rectum removed and I was just hoping to hear from some people, preferably girls, about how they felt after having a J-Pouch.
I'm a little anxious because I've been with my boyfriend for over 2 years now and I don't want everything to change drastically or stop having sex at all because of the changes I've had. I'd be glad to hear from everyone, not just people with pouches, as I know that with a permanent stoma the rectum is removed, so please, let me know how much difference you felt, whether it was painful and how long it took to get used to!
Thanks
