I remember the first time I came into the Women’s Center. I was sad and pretty hopeless. My problem seemed different from the other’s I had seen on the site and I thought I must be nuts or the only one with the problem. I was 52, married for 27 years and still interested in sex. But my orgasms were getting harder to have and weaker and weaker. By the time I made it to the Center I hadn’t had an orgasm in about a year and I was pretty sure I’d never have one again. I remember crying as I told them that.
The initial visit was so much more comfortable than I expected. And, honestly, once I had blurted out the problem I was in shock when I was told it’s not all that uncommon and more often than not, treatable! My whole outlook changed.
Within 2 months of my first visit to the center I was back to having orgasms! They worked with me with oral medications, hormones and even introduced me to my first vibrator.
Just as importantly, working with them made me realize how badly this had affected my sex life. Because of my frustration, I had been avoiding any kind of sex with my husband and our sex life had diminished to nothing.
Now everything’s different. I can’t say I’m as easily orgasmic as I was at 25, but I’m doing just fine. My husband and I are having sex regularly again, good sex. And I pretty much have orgasms every time. And sometimes, they are even as good (or better) than the ones I had when I was 25.
