Is it harder to orgasm after a tummy tuck?

July 31, 2012
Asked By:Hollywood119

Hi, I am considering full abdominoplasty, as well as liposuction to the thighs and arms with small lifts in those areas (thigh lift with incision in bikini line). I was doing some research and found a few women complaining not only about reduced sex drive, but also about reduced ability to achieve orgasm after the tummy tuck, due to decreased sensitivity in the external genitalia, perhaps due to numbness from surgery? Can surgical numbness in either of these areas have this effect? Thanks!
