Firstly, hello everyone.. I'm an extreme
newbie (joined 5 minutes ago) so please be
gentle with me!
I'd like to ask your advice/experience of
something thats really been bothering me
for ages now. About a year ago, I had
noticed that my bits down there (clitoris,
labia etc etc) seemed to be getting
smaller & smaller. Hubby and I don't
have a particularly 'active' sex life due
to my being left disabled with my last
pregnancy (I developed DSP, the more
severe form of SPD during the pregnancy 5
yrs ago). As a result, I don;t know when
this started to happen but I've a feeling
that it's got something to do with the
total hysterectomy that I had 3yrs ago
(this was done in an attempt to sort the
hormone side of my disability).
I finally plucked up the courage to ask my
GP about it but as I can't be examined,
she really didn't have a clue.
Eventually, I was referred to a gynae and
they gave me oestrogen (SP?) pessaries
which I had been using for just under
6mths now.. Unfortunately there hasn't
been any change though and if anything
else it has become even smaller. Now, I
don't know what the 'average' size is, but
lets just say it wasn't difficult to find,
especially when aroused (maybe pea size?)
but now, it's almost inverted into the
clitoral hood... Please don't laugh as
this is really bothering me and I feel
like a freak... Trying to have sex with my
wonderful husband is difficult enough
without throwing this into the mix too,
and I'm only 35!!
Could anyone please, please help with this
and give me advice on what to try?
Thanks for your time in reading this, I
really do appreciate it.

are you recieving any treatment for your
symphasis pubis dysfunction?
how bad is it?
do you suffer from reduced blood flow to
the pubic region?
why are you not able to be examined but
are able to use a pessary?
were your ovaries removed also?
have you only tried the one form of hrt?
are you vegetarian?
sorry to be nosey, but just trying to
gether information so that I can possibly
suggest further action for you.
