I. Physiological influences
Your sexual desire may be directly influence by reproductive testosterone hormones produced by ovaries and adrenal glands. 4 - 6 weeks after hysterectomy, you will be able to resume your sexual relationship again. Any sexual intercourse before that time will increase the risk of bleeding and infection. For whatever reasons, some women saw the improvement of sexual desire increase while others saw the opposite.
1. Ovaries are not removed
a) If the endometrial hysterectomy did not remove the ovaries, then the ovaries will continue to produce testosterone together with adrenal glands, you may feel no change in your sexual libido.
b)Some people suggest that even though the ovaries are not removed, the removal of other reductive organs more or less will cause the change of sex drive, because most women will be aging a few years earlier than women who have not had reproductive organs hysterectomy.
c) Even if the ovaries are not removed, the removal of other reproductive organs may reduce blood flow to the ovaries causing libido as resulting of low levels of testosterone.
