Intimacy issues

This is one for the male MS sufferers, I've had MS for a long time now and am struggling with erection issues. Does any other male suffer from this? I am on a very high dose of Viagra but for the last year it rarely works and now it's starting to affect my long term relationship

Intimacy & Conception

I have been married to my amazing husband for 16yrs n the past 4 yrs I don't have any desire for intimacy. He's faithful and patient. What do you do you do or does anyone take supplements to help?

MS, Perimenopause, and HRT

Hi, everyone. I was wondering if those of you with RRMS who are still experiencing periods of sorts and are currently using (or have tried) HRT wouldn’t mind sharing your experiences, positive or negative, in terms of the impact it has had on you, your lifestyle, and in particular your MS.

this is good to know

Dating someone with MS, or being in a relationship with them, can be a source of happiness and contentment. However, the condition can also be challenging, meaning people may need to adapt their approach to spending quality time together, intimacy, and maintaining an emotional connection.
