After IUD I Experienced Numbness in My Vagina

Hi Betty

Just over two years ago I got a IUD (cobber); it did hurt a lot to get up and afterwards I was about to faint. (I have no kids so I am very tight down there). On the way home after I had set it up, I felt a numbness in the vagina (and I had not even touched myself at this point); as if I had been stripped of anything down there.

When I had sex afterwards, the sexual feeling was really reduced, both in the clitoris, vagina, vaginal walls and labia - my sexual energy and feeling was just reduced enormous. I was so sad, and I told my partner. When I had sex with another guy at another time, I felt immediately that I almost could not feel that he was inside me; as if my vagina was just a stocking or a sleeve without senses.
