Just wanted to know if vaginal estrogen will help with loss of sensitivity and sensation. I do lubricate during foreplay, but then also have to use added lubrication to continue. Sex isn't painfull, but its more a loss in sensation, almost numbness. Is this normal? Will it change? Im 51 and still want to have a healthy enjoyable relationship. I did see the doctor and at the time my BP was high and on the causious side I was asked to monitor at home for 7 days. Im due to see the doctor on Tuesday and hopefully she won't refuse to give me the prescription. I don't know what will help other then to try the vaginal estrogen. If it doesn't work, then there clearly iz a underlining problem
