I have seen various postings of the site but never a discussion of the sexual side of the pituitary tumor. The dictionary describes libido "as the desire for sexual urge". I am a fifty seven year old male and who was diagnosis with a pituitary tumor when I was forty years old. Since then I had surgery and gamma knife procedure and the dr's said the tumor has been rsolved (their words). I am taking testorterone and that is not helping our situation. I have been to counseling and no help. What I would like to hear is members discuss how do they handle the sexual side. My wife and I have not had sex in over three years, there is no desire on my part. Prior to being diagnosis sour sex lives was going down hill. I always thought it was because getting older and I was also doing a lot of commuting to work, in other words plain tired. My wife has been somewhat understanding but she does have her needs! Has anyone been able to get their sex live back or is this just an unusal case? Has there been anything written about this in any medical journals? Any comments would greatly be appreciative!! |
