A member asked:

Will my sex life be affected by the cryotherapy procedure? such as lack of sensation or pain or anything not normal with sex.

A doctor has provided 1 answer

No: Cryotherapy is like any burn to tissue, it sheds and new tissue grows back in its place. Immediately after procedure sex life affected due to discharge and possible odor but will resolve with time. The abnormal tissue is destroyed with the cryotherapy and hopefully healthy new tissues will grow back in its place.
