Right, I need to say this somewhere because I genuinely cannot say it out loud yet. I didn't know this could happen. I knew about hot flushes and mood stuff. Nobody told me that intimacy could just... change. That it could start to feel uncomfortable and then I'd quietly start avoiding it and my husband would think it was him and I wouldn't know how to explain that it isn't, because I don't really have the words for it. I've got a GP appointment in two weeks and I've been trying to write it down so I don't go in there and say "I'm fine" like I always do. It feels embarrassing even writing it privately. But I'm tired of pretending it isn't happening. x
