A member asked:
I'm a 51 year old virgin. is it still possible for me to have sex or is my vaginal canal shrunk by now? i had a hymenectomy 10 years ago for surgical purposes?

It is difficult to say without exam. There might just be mild 'shrinkage'. You can try with an understanding partner with well lubricated vagina and penis.. If that shows problems pl see your Gyn. Or you can see the Gyn first before sex. Good luck.

There is no reason for you to not be able to have sex. If you do, use a liberal amount of water based lubricant like K Y jelly. Wish you good health! Safe sex: https://www.hopkinsmedicine.org/health/wellness-and-prevention/safer-sex-guidelines
