Dear , while it is possible to use lidocaine gel, it's important to note that it contains a local anesthetic agent, which can potentially reduce sensation for both the female and male partners, impacting pleasure during intercourse. There are alternative options available that can help alleviate pain and also act as lubricants, such as ky jelly and lubic gel.
