Long time no sex

I’ve not had sex in 4 years. Will my pelvic floor muscles be weak because of this when I do eventually have sex again? (Hoping I will again one day!)

If you're worried OP. do pelvic floor muscle exercises. This can be simply done.

I wouldn't have thought so. After all, they remain dormant for 16 years before we start having sex!

I didn't have sex for 6 years. No complaints when I got back to it.

It will have no effect whatsoever on your pelvic floor muscles. Sounds like something a man would ask 😂

If you’re worried just do exercises.

Not sure why you're quoting my post on this. I agree - also agree that a man would be likely to ask this!

Bit of lube, foreplay and you'll be fine

@Musicaltheatremum this is reassuring to know. I wasn’t sure if they would weaken with not using these muscles for so long!

I am female for those in doubt

I went almost 4 years without sex. But I had no issues when it did finally happen. The only issue I had was how nervous but turned on I was when it happened.
