[quote=Anonymous]Don’t let his ego stress you out. Do talk to your doctor and consider the options. But this may be your new normal and he should be able to accept it. I went through what you’re going through with new partners post divorce. Tried creams, HRT, even PRP. Eventually things got a little better after the hormonal changes settled down and my body settled into the HRT. But there’s still less sensitivity and intensity. Orgasms are less frequent and more effortful.

The most helpful thing was learning to accept my new normal and being with a partner who understood what was going on and didn’t make it about him. Men eventually lose sensitivity, too, and have more difficulty not just getting and staying hard, but also climaxing. So it shouldn’t be that hard for men of a certain age to accept that your sexual function is also changing and it’s not about you being frigid or unresponsive or boring or a blow to his ego if you come less frequently. I find sex highly enjoyable and satisfying even when I cannot climax and my partner understands that. That’s just getting older.[/quote]
