Hi I’m new. I’ve had endometriosis three times and have an autoimmune disease that causes extreme drying-out of just about everything, from mouth and eyes to vagina. Although I have great docs etc, the pain has created a situation where I’ve lost any desire for sex, probably because I am afraid of the pain. I’m blaming myself for our crappy sex life even though I know that’s not logical.

It is very hard. I can relate as I was diagnosed with hypertonic pelvic floor dysfunction and I have pain and pressure after sex that will usually last at least a day. It kills all desire to want sex thats for sure. It has put a wrench in our sex life and I feel guilty all the time. :( it is horrible.
