Hello. : Hello. I don't know if your use of a vibrator has contributed to clitoral shrinkage. However, because you are postmenopausal your estrogen levels have dropped. This can cause the clitoris, labia and vagina to have shrinkage. Because you are a breast cancer survivor, only your doctor would be able to tell you if the risk of hormone replacement therapy or hormone creams for the vaginal area is worth the possible benefit.

Mistaken: The changes you are describing are unlikely to be related to your behavior and more likely hormonally related to decreased estrogens.

No reason to worry: The number of nerves in your clitoris would remain unchanged regardless of it's size. You have nothing to worry about.
