I don't seem to feel the physical affects of sexual arousal. Do I have a sexual problem?

A female United States age 36-40, anonymous writes:

I'm nearly 23 and have been in my first serious relationship for the past 8 months or so. I'm a virgin. I have masturbated though every once in a while since I was 14. I've never made myself orgasm and neither has he! My problem is that, for the most part, I don't seem to feel the physical affects of sexual arousal. When I'm masturbating or when my boyfriend rubs my vaginal area I'd feel nothing for a few minutes and then start feeling an good, intense sensation for a few seconds. After that I'm back to not feeling any sensation even though I'm lubricated. I'm starting to worry that I have a physical problem. I think I was molested on one occasion at the age of 4. I'm wondering if that experience could possibly be what's causing my issues with arousal now...even though it only happened once. Could something else be causing it? Have any of you had the same problem and if so, did you get over it? If so, how? Thank you.

I am not sure what is causing your lack of feeling, it could be a lot of things. I think your problem is beyond the scope of this site and may be psychologically based or even have a physical cause like depression.

I would first talk this over with your doctor and get some advice and a referral to a specialist or psychologist as I am sure there is a way to get this resolved for you if you just get the proper help.
