I used to have an active, enjoyable sex life and never had problems having a orgasm. Over the past 10 years it has become increasingly more difficult to achieve an orgasm and for the past several years I can't even have an orgasm through masturbation. In addition, over the past few years when I did achieve orgasm, a painful ache in my vaginal area followed.

The other night I had two orgasms while sleeping, and woke up to a painful ache in my vaginal area. I had to take advil before I went back to sleep.

It is difficult to get aroused, and stay aroused before climax. So, I've given up on sex for the past few years but it saddens me to think that I have lost my drive when I know how wonderful it used to feel.

Does anyone have any suggestions?
