Info about Sex Therapy
An active sex life is an important and enjoyable part of a healthy relationship. However, many people encounter sexual problems at some point in their lives. People often find it difficult to talk about problems in their sex life with their partner. Working with a sex therapist will help you to work out how to handle the problems you?re having and find a way to move on from them. 93 per cent of the people who see a sex therapist confirm that it?s helped them make their sexual relationships significantly better.
Sex Therapists can help with sexual problems such as the following for both men and women:
- Having difficulty reaching orgasm.
- Pain during intercourse.
- Contractions of the muscles around the vagina (vaginismus) which can make intercourse near impossible.
- Problems controlling ejaculation or in reaching orgasm.
- Not always being able to get or maintain an erection even when you would like to.
My partner has gone off sex. Does it mean he has gone off me?
There are many reasons why a person's desire to have sex diminishes. Don't conclude that it must be because they don't fancy you any more. However if there is some sort of discord in the relationship then they may not feel inclined to make love to you.
If there are no problems that you are aware of then tell your partner how concerned you are that you don't appear to be making love as often as you used to. It's not uncommon for the frequency of love making to tail off after you've been together for some time. But there may be other factors such as stress at work, worries about other family members, fatigue, ill health, hormonal fluctuations and your partner's dissatisfaction with himself - to mention just a few.
Sex is talked about far more than ever before, but it is still a difficult subject for couples to discuss. Sexual appetites and tastes change but sometimes nothing is said for fear of what the other partner may think. Not talking causes its own problems.
