Sex and Neuropathy

Posted by windsorchris @windsorchris, Jan 1, 2022

Hello, I had a very bad night after sex...legs throbbing, cramps etc..I was wondering if sex was to blame. I have not heard others report this .

Interested in more discussions like this? Go to the Neuropathy Support Group.

Can you explain how sex causes neuropathy?
Thanks,
Jake

Hello,
Sorry about your pain.
Unless I am wrong, it seems that the other way around would make more sense. Peripheral neuropathy can affect sexual function according to what I was able to dig out from the internet. However, since our nervous system is a highly intricate web, anything can happen when we have peripheral neuropathy. I feel it will be hard to pinpoint which way things can go and the medical field, even with all the knowledge there currently is, still has an extremely long way to understand the complexity of the nervous system.
Best wishes.
Take care and have a serene day,
gus
