Menopause and Lower Sex DriveThe good news is that as women age, they often feel better about who they are. The bad news is that, sometimes, our bodies don’t respond the way they used to.

Multiple Sclerosis and Sexual IssuesMS involves the breakdown of the myelin sheath that protects all nerve fibers. The damage to the covering of nerves decreases transmission along nerve fibers, and these changes may decrease genital sensitivity, delay orgasm or decrease the intensity of orgasm. MS is also associated with a decrease in vaginal lubrication. |
