His and Her Health

Hello, I've had this issue forever but never thought anything about it until my girlfriends and i started talking more about sex. I have a hard time feeling anything when it comes to oral or sex. I mean if a guy is eating me out i will not have a single clue whats going on and there is no sensation at all let alone pleasurable. I have asked my bf to be rough and he even bites my clit so i can at least feel a little something. also during sex its just a very dull feeling of pleasure nothing to get excited about if u know what i mean. its been like this forever like i said before.... is there anything i can do or take inorder to increase sensitivity?

I'm in the same boat, feel pretty numb down there. I love to be touched and kissed but if he goes down on me or we are having sex, I just have a hard time to get any sensation.

Have either of you ladies had your hormone levels checked? .

No I haven't. I used to have alot of problems with my period when I was younger, could go 6 months without a period. Then I went on birth control and I was regulated. I assumed my hormone levels were regulated as well. What kind of test would I ask for?

Thank you for your reply by the way

Here is a link to an article called" Hormones for Dummies" don't take it personally.It is by Dr. Jennifer Berman the Director of Women's Sexual Health on our website . http://www.bermansexualhealth.com/

Thank you, I checked out the website and will make an appt with the doc to have my hormone levels checked. That would be the last thing I would think of to check because of my age. I didn't think I'd have to worry about that for at least another 10 years. Enlightening. Tks

Hormonal based birth control can tank libido.

Lack of feeling in the clitoris and/or nipples may indicate low testosterone.

things that may help: balancing hormones, increasing dopamine levels (Wellbutrin-Zyban or Requip-like drugs), limit alcohol, quit smoking, perhaps try 'warming' lubricants. If dryness is an issue, try ephedrine (decongestant) if you're opposed to estriol

I haven't had my hormone levels checked ... at my age i didn't think i would have to worry about it either, im going to see my doctor about it.
Ive always had a regular period, like clock work really. and the symptoms of low testosterone i don't really have except for the low libido i guess...

are there any other explanations?

Did any of you girls have luck? What did your hormone levels say when you had them checked?
