What Causes Low Libido After A Hysterectomy?

My wife has had a radical hysterectomy and also 2 laser surgeries in the vagina to resolve cancer that came back. Careful gentle extended foreplay will not allow sexual penetration and it is like hitting a wall according to my wife. Other forms of sexual contact go well and we do love each other very much. My wife is 73 years old I am 77 but we both want to still be sexually active. My wife feels badly that we cannot have intercourse and would like to be able to. Your suggestions please

Hello and welcome to HCM,
Multiple surgeries on vagina are responsible for difficulty in performing sexual activity.
Cosmetic surgery may be performed to improve the anatomical structures.
You may consult a cosmetic surgeon.

Thanks and take care
