Why can't I feel anything in my vagina?

Hi,

I'm 22 years old. I've been sexually active for a little over a year. I'm genuinely in love with my boyfriend and I am certainly attracted to him, but during sex it's hard for me to remain focussed because  I feel little to nothing inside my vagina. I can feel the pressure of him penetrating me, but I don't experience any type of pleasurable or good feelings. The only way I can experience pleasure or even orgasm, is via clitoral stimulation (he uses his hand or mouth).

This is very frustrating for both of us. I feel insecure and "broken". He feels bad and will often avoid initiating sex as he knows that I cannot enjoy sex as he does. I just want to enjoy sex physically and emotionally. It does cause both myself and my partner stress. Is something wrong with me??

Have you tried stimulating your g-spot? Many women are able to learn how to do so and then "teach" their significant other techniques that lead to explosive orgasms (quite literally). Just curious if you've tried this.

I completely understand why I touch myself while me n my hubby have sex I've never told him why I do it but it's the only way I'll get off. But doggie style is only position I do that I have no need to do it

Should try different postures where clitoris is rubbed by the dorsal region of the penis. Usually female -up position, helps to involve clitoral stimulation. You may Google Female deer exercise and do it regularly. Kegel exercises are also recommend to improve sexual performance. Couple can kegel each other while doing intercourse. Searching new ways and means can help to achieve orgasm simultaneously.This should be ultimate goal.

I agree with the above poster, Chima7. There are other ways to enjoy intercourse. Different positions where you're getting more clitoral stimulation, your boyfriend using his fingers to stimulate you and also using toys if you feel comfortable with that. It sounds like you have a very understanding boyfriend. That's a really good thing because he may be very open to trying different things for your pleasure.

Relax, if you're broken then majority of women are, too. The last time I looked it up, it was 75% of women can't orgasm from penetration alone and require simultaneous clitoral stimulation. You shouldn't feel bad cause you're in the majority and if your bf makes you feel bad about it, tell him to shut up because he's clueless about how common this is for the majority of women.

No, I don't think there's anything wrong with you. Many women can not have an orgasm with intercourse alone.
