Concerningly decreased clitoral sensitivity?

Posted this in another thread to no avail so far, but I’m 17 now and started masturbating probably when i was around 11? and I do it most days and noticed slight gradual desensitization over time but nothing crazy, until I started dating my boyfriend.

I believe he goes harder than I do because it feels much more intense. Over the course of months, it has gotten harder and harder for me to finish whether its him doing it or me. I used to be able to make myself finish in a minute if I really wanted to get the job done. Now sometimes it feels like nothing or takes me an hour.

It could possibly be because I’m on Strattera (SNRI) for my adhd but even after I lowered my dose, I feel that it only continues to get harder to finish (also I’ve been on it for 6 months already). I’m starting to get pretty worried like there’s some permanent or semi permanent nerve damage or desensitization from stimulation thats too hard or too frequent.

Over the last several months I’ve also noticed it’s incredibly difficult for me to get physically aroused even if my mind is completely there. This has a lot to do with my difficulty finishing. Is there anything I can do? Is this reversible?

Decreased clitoral sensation

I’m 17 now and started masturbating probably when i was around 11? and I do it pretty frequently (most days) and I noticed slight gradual desensitization over time but nothing crazy, until I started dating my boyfriend.

I have a hard time recreating how he makes me feel, I guess he goes harder because it feels much more intense. Over the course of months, it has gotten harder and harder for me to finish whether its him doing it or me. I used to be able to make myself finish in a minute if I really wanted to get the job done. Now sometimes it really feels like nothing or takes me an hour.

Edit: I’ve been on Strattera for probably 6 months now which I think means that this is unlikely to be a side effect

NOTHING has worked for me, and my waterpik cleared one crypt of over 20 tonsil stones. Get one.

It was disgusting and wonderful. I have been so self conscious of my breath due to tonsil stones and i made a post about this recently, talking about how i brush my teeth several times a day, floss daily, brush my tongue, flush my tonsils with a curved syringe, gargle with salt water + baking soda and chew gum all the time yet i always taste and smell foul, bitter taste coming from the back of my throat.

Despite doing all that it everyday, there were clearly some suckers hiding away and I whipped out my waterpik from when I had braces and when I tell you the sink was covered in stones just after using the lowest setting on one crypt. I almost jumped for joy I had been looking into tonsillectomies because my breath made me so insecure but this genuinely cleared out my tonsils like nothing has. I probably still have some work to do but even after one session, I don’t smell or taste a rotten stench oozing from my tonsils when I swallow or yawn.

PLEASE INVEST IN ONE. It works so much better than a syringe and is so much easier to work with.

Teen girl here :( How to find hidden tonsil crypts/stones or actually get rid of bad breath??

i’m still in high school and this is SUCH a big insecurity of mine. i chew gum all day at school, brush my teeth like 5 times a day, stay hydrated, flush the 2 biggest tonsil crypts i can see with a curved syringe and gargle with salt + baking soda.

my bad breath comes back in probably 10 mins, and even after all that i can still taste something at the back of my throat when i swallow. i’m wondering if there are hidden tonsil crypts with stones i can’t see, and if so how do i deal with them? and how do i actually keep my breath fresh because i feel like nothing works to even keep it fresh for a couple hours.

I recently lost my virginity and the more my partner and I have sex, the more texture appears in (not on the outside but the inside) my labia minora and by texture I mean it looks like the skin is kind of bumpy and cracking, it used to be completely smooth. it just looks rougher now and I think it’s because of friction irritation? but I feel that it’s changing pretty quickly and it doesn’t go away, I’m worried it’ll change how my vagina looks forever or it’ll end up turning into a more serious injury. we are both std free. its not itchy nor painful. is this normal?
