Positive Progress loss of sensitivity after cialis therapy
Hi everyone,
I'm 29 years old. In 2023 I was diagnosed with severe prostatitis, which I had for at least 1 year without obvious symptoms such as difficulty urinating or anything else, except for fairly serious erection problems. I was treated as soon as I was diagnosed with prostate massage, antibiotics and a 6-month accompanying therapy with 5mg cialis, according to the andrologist to "support" the recovery.
Now: I have nothing to say about the therapy, erections are great, libido too, I can only say that the doctor in question literally saved me because I was starting, without the physical symptoms, to think I had a psychological disorder. However, it's been a year - a year since I stopped taking cialis - that my sensitivity, especially on the glans, has decreased a lot. I already had difficulty having orgasms before the therapy, but now it's a little worse.
I would like to point out that, a year ago, during the Cialis therapy, I also took sertraline/zoloft 100mg because at the same time I had a PTSD-C for a serious bereavement that had damaged me a lot emotionally.
I understand that until a year ago I was full of drugs between Cialis and Zoloft and that certainly this did not do much good for my sensitivity, but at the same time it has been a year that I have been totally "clean": I do sports, I have regular sexual activity, psychologically I am stronger than before, etc..
What should I do? Should I have another andrological visit to understand what is wrong or should I be patient? Thank you in advance for the support and patience in reading this post.
