Is Sexual Intercourse Advisable After Testopel Implantation?
Question: I had some Testopel pellets implanted yesterday, and had sex last night. Is there any chance I could have dislodged a pellet, or could one come out because of my activity. I still have the stern strips, small gauze pad and waterproof bandage on my hip at the incision site. I just worry... Thank You
Brief Answer:
No harmful effects
Detailed Answer:
Hi and welcome.
No,it can't be dislodged or moved during sex or any other physical activity since it is implanted into subcutaneous tissue where it is fixed with adhesions and fibrosis. So you don't need to be worried about pellet position or its effect. You can remove steri strips and gauze 5 days after surgery and shower the wound. Wish you good health. Regards
