I'm 25 years old, about half a year ago I was diagnosed with hypothyroidism, cause currently unknown. A few months after being diagnosed I suddenly lost a good 80% of the feeling in my penis. Does anyone know much about this and if thyroid issues could cause this problem? I did wonder if masturbation was the cause but it's doubtful because I only do that max once a day, or sometimes even 3-4 days between each time.
There's another thing, I have my foreskin and I used to be really sensative on the glans, so much that I didn't like the thought of anything even touching them, except the inside of a woman of course, because that's the one thing that didn't cause discomfort. Roughly around the time of myself becoming desensitised, I was experimenting with retracting my own foreskin and trying to get more comfortable with it, previously, the only way for me to retract it was when it happend naturally while entering a woman. I did learn to retract it myself without being twitchy about it and honestly it wasn't that hard to do once I set my mind to it, at no point did I ever hurt myself while learning to do this, I was very careful and learned to do it gradually over time, so I don't see how this could be the cause.
So that's 3 of the possibilities of what caused me to become to desensitised. For me it's quite bad, because I can put my dick under a hot shower (not scalding hot) and only lightly feel it, extremely lightly. Put any other part of my body under it and I can feel it easily. This means my penis is currently one of the least sensitive areas of my body.
So far this hasn't been much of a problem for me sexually, well, for my partner at least. I can get the job done almost as well as before, except for me it sucks, because I can hardly feel anything, even mid orgasm. For me to achieve much sexually I need to focus on mental stimulation because physically I can hardly feel anything. The slightest thing to put off my concentration can sometimes lead to a loss of erection, unless of course sex was already well underway and then instead I just become a bit less hard.
What can I do? I don't know what caused this problem or how to fix it.
