Hello everyone i am posting this cause i ve been strugling with it for quite a time. I been having some problem controling my sugar levels. Lately every time i want to have sex i notice is kinda painful n i have to use lubricants.  n hardly have desire to be with my husband. Is very stressful because we are a young couple my husband is 28 and i am 34. Does any of u go thru the samething?? Plz advice thanks!

Is it maybe a yeast infection? Or maybe dehydration? I am newly diagnosed and haven't run into this, but- I feel for you!!!! As if you haven't got enough to worry about... call the dr.? It might be something super easy to fix! I hope it works out!

I have a bit of trouble in that department as well. Even when I was younger, I had lubrication problems. These days, using a lube is pretty much normal for myself and my . As for desire...I don't really have too much of a problem with it, and usually if I do, it's because of my depression (at least it's something I can blame taking an anti-depressant for, even if I know diabetes can contribute to it as well ).

I noticed that when my fiancee and I tried having sex I was kinda dry. I didn't know if it was because we rushed it or cause I'm always in the 200's. But I don't have any problem on the other department.

Before I was diabetic I had ZERO problems with dryness since I have become a diabetic that has drastically changed I have needed a bottle in both nightstands. It's common even if your blood sugars are good. No worries...just be prepared!

I was told by my doc that insulin can inhibit my sexual desire when I am running high. When I run high lvls my skin gets tighter, I bruise easier and dont heal as fast and I am prone to yeast or bladed infection so yeah I am not feeling sexy at the time. All the more reason to tighten up my control. Cause normally I like Sex I really do, just a side not make sure your lubes are sugar free ( not flavor.)

I found an awesome sensitive lube from ky. A little pricey but worth it in the end.

I have ran into this problem as well with in the past 3 years. Lubs dont seam to work for me. Any other advise?

My OBGYN said try Olive Oil. It is natrual and won't hurt anything.
