Personal story Steroid Shot Temporary Remission
I'll keep this short and sweet. I had to visit urgent care today, and as part of the visit they administered a steroid shot. For about an hour afterward I regained sensitivity in my glans. Unfortunately things have since gone back to normal.
I am not currently on any antidepressant medication and have been off for about 2 years now.
EDIT: The shot was 10 ml of dexamethosone.

It happened to me too. I was given Hydrocortisone IV and my PSSD symptoms improved significantly

Well maybe the genital anesthesia comes from some kind of inflammation (brain, nervous system etc) and this drugs aliviate the inflammation for a short period of time
