Numb clit

East Coast USA

50

I’ve always been the one to not take medication unless absolutely necessary.

Losing the feeling in my clitoris sent me looking for answers. Shortly after that started, my moods got so low that I didn’t really want to be here anymore. Once I started looking for help, I realized I’d been in peri for almost a decade and had been through the gamut of other symptoms but these two were the breaking point.

I discovered the 5 years of bladder and urethra problems were part of the same thing that was causing the loss of feeling in my clit. Genitourinary Syndrome of Menopause. I’ve not read, watched or seen anything that leads me to believe anything other than some type of HRT will help this so I’m in it for the long haul.

Estrogen and progesterone have given me my life back - I’m not peeing all the time, I can at least orgasm again (though it’s not like it used to be) and as long as my E isn’t bottomed out, I don’t want to cease existing.

I had no idea peri/menopause could be anything other than easy like my mom had. What a rude awaking this has been!!
