Question 1

issues with pains/lack of pleasure during sex?

Many!: Casual sex is not usually pleasurable for most women. I believe this is the biggest factor.  If you are married or in a committed relationship,  many hormonal factors exist. Talk to your pcp, ob/gyn specialast, and psychiatrist, in that order.

One might not be emotionally ready for sexual activity. 2nd reason could be that one feels dirty or guilty (this may be especially so if one has religious prohibitions). 3rd reason is STRESS.

Question 3

is my penis size causing lack of her pleasure during sex?

Accepted Answer

Not necessarily: Ask her what turnd her on. Clitoris is the most important female body part for both pleasurable sensation and to achieve orgasm, and may need stimulation. A very small or very thin penis might not suit her perfectly. She might like you to use your fingers and/or tongue. She should tell you. Hopefully, she hasn't lost interest either in sex or in you. Good luck.
