Curious to hear from you all…

Have physical changes, injuries, health conditions, or simply getting older affected comfort, positioning, or enjoyment during sex?

What challenges have you run into?

Feel free to share what’s worked for you, what hasn’t, and any questions you have. Sometimes the smallest physical challenges can have a surprisingly big impact on intimacy, and I imagine many of us have run into similar experiences.

Because of 5 hernia surgeries leading to a nerve entrapment and chronic groin pain in scar tissue adhesion, spermatic cord, testicles and penis. Don't feel worth anything in a relationship, so I have not looked for one in the past 15 years. Can't reach down there for very long without intensifying the pain even to pee, have to let it go so masturbation is out of the question. My appointment with my PFPT last week was no help she gave up on me and could give no referrals, the only advice she could give is not to use the VED with all my unwanted erections. The only little relief I get is from your guided exercises Dr. Susie and I thank God for that. OX
