Actually what are smelling salts? I always wondered.

Smelling salts contain ammonium carbonate which gives off the pungent smelling ammonia. I remember learning this in a chemistry lesson at school

Surely everyone carries smelling salts and wears one's pearls for occasions such as these?

Thank you ladies for smelling salts explanations.

No idea why you would think that.
I'm pretty sure teens could be far more racey.

It's OK to talk about sex in 2024.

It’s actually brightened my day reading all the replies. Obs, I need to get out more!

I like to think I'm broad minded but it's not an appropriate post for this site, or any other for that matter.
If this person hadn't posted before I would expect a group of hormonal teenagers on half term to be taking the p--s. !

My mum swore by her smelling salts.
Its a little bottle of very strong smelling "stuff", though I don't know what.

One sniff is enough to blow your hat off!

Smelling salts for MissA

Just imagine arriving in A&E with a painful dislocated hip after inventive cavorting, and being asked how it happened, and the sniggering that would go on behind the, non soundproof, curtains. 😵‍💫!

‘ Inventive cavorting’ is a splendid phrase!

Blow job? Sex toys? Doesn’t have to be one on one

The advice is to wait till the anaesthetic has worn off.

Its very good you still have a physical relationship!
It's only 3 weeks so try and wait a bit longer for your body to heal.
Do you have a vibrator you could use? Discuss it with your man.

ftm I can’t answer your perfectly reasonable question and am surprised it wasn’t raised at your discharge from hospital. I’d suggest contacting either where you had the op done or your GP, or perhaps on the knees and hip thread here.

I've seen this person post before, so nothing to suggest trolling.

What a fuss about a normal thing!

I think the OP also wondered when she could start running again.

Remember the thread about Botham and the Revitiv machine?
Someone suggested too much vibration could loosen the cement in joint replacements.
Running, sex - whatever, proceed with extreme caution.

I'm pretty sure it's a genuine post- OP started another thread about having to get up to pee in the night often, and mentioned the hip replacement.

People still have sex???

What a stupid question to ask strangers on the internet!! Must be a troll post.

Bend over the table, and have him stand behind you.

But remember to bend at 90° to prevent dislocation. 😂

Has anyone seen my pearls - I really need to clutch them!
