Intimacy and MS

I rarely hear about how MS effects intimacy. Do others relate to this issue?

Personally, I had to make adjustments with regard to intimacy. You are absolutely right that this can be a taboo or even embarrassing topic, but it is part of the lived experience for many MS patients. I’d say that I’m grateful that, 1) medications are available and work for me and 2) my partner and I have the relationship where we can talk about our needs openly. Thanks for bringing this up and starting some discourse!

I tend to get numb down thr. No sensation at all. Also no desire either
