What Causes Low Sex Drive And Numbness In Genitals?

About 4 months ago I noticed a precipitous drop in my sex drive which attributed to stress at the time. Shortly thereafter I felt as if my genitals had gone numb and that the skin on the penile shaft was dry in a way I had never noticed/experienced before. While my sex drive has returned to near normal, I continue to have decreased sensitivity on my penis as well as decreased sensation during orgasm.

Dear
Welcome to HCM
We understand your concerns

I went through your details. Please don't worry. You already know that your 4month-back-lossinsexdrive was caused by stress and related anxiety. The behavior of stress is such. Now you are able to get back the sex drive to normal. Remember it took two to three months.

Exactly in the same way, you will get the sensitivity and pleasure back within some days. Don't worry and get anxious about it because worrying can cause obsession and obsession may lead to further anxiety and such an anxiety may worsen your problem. I am sure, within two months, all your complaints and problems regarding this issue should be clear. Don't worry.

You definitely need psychological counseling. Please consult a psychologist offline or online.
