I'm 38 years old, and due to my S.O's E.D., have not had sex in almost 9 months!!! I want to know if my situation(no sex) could lead to me going through menopause earlier than i would if i had a more active sex life...
The lack of sexual activity should not effect your body's life cycle. If you are meant for an eary menopause that is what will come, other wise no. BUT, having said that I feel the need to add that you need to be tending to your own body's needs if your SO is not helping you with that in some way. The old addage that says, "if you don't use it, you lose it", really does apply here ~ especially the body's ability to produce natural lubrication. Has he seen a doctor about his ED?
Yeah, he went to the doctor, but they said his testoterone level is fine, that it must be psychological. He doesn't WANT to go to counseling, cuz he thinks he's fine!He doesn't seem to care what it's doing to me!
Are you beginning to think it is time to find another SO?! If he does not feel that your basic needs should be met maybe he is not worth keeping around - unless, of course, he is Mr. Wonderful in all other ways. I guess that if you love him enough to stay in spite of this 'hang up' of his you will need to be the one to treat your body well. Have you told him what I said about "using it or losing it"? That is true of his "working parts" as well!!!!
