Sex

Yeah I'm gonna drop this right here and I apologise in advance but I've not noticed that anyone has spoke about it. I'm 18, I have a partner. I have noticed that it's hard for me to finish, even with self pleasure, and my partner feels awful about it, I don't know if I can do anything about it, but ...

Let’s talk about sex

OK we don’t talk about it but we really should ! My sex drive is pretty much zero with just no appetite. I guess others are like this , so how do you cope with this ? How do your partners feel ? Is this mainly a bloke thing ? Would be really interested to hear your thoughts 😊

What about sex?

It is an awkward question I was scared to ask but is it ms ? During sex I often get dizzy and my legs and arms go numb, Its a scary feeling... like I will faint during sex... I always stop when that happens, but I have no idea why that happens, Does anyone else feel the same way?

Sex……question for the ladies.

Do any other ladies have any troubles “getting there” during sex? It’s so messed up, like my vagina had died?! The drive is there but it’s damn near impossible to get off anymore. Even by myself. I’ve had MS now for 14 years and I’m 40 years old.

Sex - women

Only found out I could have an orgasm when I was 50 when I discovered vibrators. Till then I just enjoyed f**king and that was enough for me. Haven't actually had sex since i was about 42 when I had my very late motherhood and split with the father. Now nearly 70 and would enjoy trying sex but ...

📽️ Womanhood episode 4: MS & sex 🎇😯

Has MS impacted your sex life? Sex, intimacy and pleasure is hugely impactful to quality of life but let’s be real, for any MSer, discussions about sex can be awkward. In episode 4, Roxy, Emma, Evie, Katt and Shereena talk candidly about MS and sex. Fatigue, numbness, loss of libido, over-sensi...

Adult Subject - After Sex Issue

I have issues at night sometimes I get spasticity in my arms and legs. After I've had sex it's pretty much a guarantee, as it's warmer at the moment we've got a fan in the bedroom but even with that blasting on me (which can help on normal nights) I still get them. Anyone get the same? Any tips to t...
