loss of feeling

for the last 3 months i have become aware that i have lost the sensitive feeling that i used to get during intercourse.
I do not have an erection problem and still ejaculate. Can you help with the reason why this is happening or if anything
can be done to rectify it ?

Eat healthy food including fruits, sleep well and try to take  some multi vit tablets 25mg one tablet per day is enough, try it for two week and see the result.

If your penis is truly feeling numb, then why not see a urologist to determine whether there's some physiological condition? If it was my penis, I wouldn't wait.

The feeling i am talking about is that during masterbation or intercourse i donot get any
sensitive feeling from my penis although i still manage to maintain an erection and
ejaculate. This started about a year ago and has got worse particularly in the last three
months. Of course this concerns me a great deal.

I can't guess what you mean by a good feeling in your penis, since everyone has a different definition of this, and it's totally subjective. You need to be much more specific about what this feeling is, when was the last time you felt it, how does it differ currently, etc.

Thankyou for your response. What I ment by sensetive feeling is the good feeling you get from the penis during intercourse. I am still turned on by my partner  and very happy in my relationship. I had wondered if the problem could be due to an hormonial issue?
I would be pleased if you would respond again.

I’m not sure what you mean by a “sensitive feeling.” What exactly is this feeling and how does it differ from what you feel now? Are you still feeling turned on by your partner(s)? Do you still desire your partner(s)? Are you happy in your relationship(s)? These are all areas to examine because they can affect desire and arousal.

In addition, most men expect to have the desire and capacity of their 16-year-old selves for their entire lives. Your sexuality will change with age, that that doesn't mean you can't still enjoy sex. It's just different--like if you're an athlete and you're used to running 5 miles a day; as you age, you may only run 2 miles a day. It's still as enjoyable, but you need to make some adjustments. Erections, desire, sensitivity: these all change during our lives. The trick is to realize that sex can be just as satisfying even though it's different than during your younger years. Dr. J
