    clueless but well meaning questions

    Is the numbness supposed to be temporary or will it start having feeling soon? Is there any real way to know or is it a wait and see deal?

      Explanations

      It is very much temporary. Numbness can last up to a year. I started to get some feeling back already, but most of it is numb still. Probably a good 95% still is. The clitoris was never numb btw, which is the important part imo. Also, if my puppy wife is anything to go by, it all resolves within 6 months. But yeah, it is definitely a wait and see ordeal.

        I think it was like two months for me (it’s been a while), so if you’re lucky you may not need to wait so long! Congrats on the surgery.

          Thank you :3

          I’m 6 weeks post-op this week so I still have time. I AM nervous about it all because I had a tummy tuck the better part of a decade ago and never regained feeling from it. Even if this never regained feeling I’d still be okay, but it would definitely be less than ideal.
