Women's Sex
Problems
Sex is a natural part of being a woman. As with
most natural things in the body, like eating and sleeping,
sex can be upset by a number of
different causes.
Firstly, there may be medical illnesses, like
diabetes, high blood pressure, and depression, where a sexual problem can be
the first sign that there is anything wrong. Some medical treatments, like
antidepressants, can
cause sexual problems, and you will want to know how long the effect will last.
There may be hormones out of balance after childbirth. It is often wise to see
your doctor if you have a sexual problem.
Other common causes are:
- not knowing how to respond or what to expect
- not having enough time to relax
- difficulties in the relationship with your
partner
- a partner who is unwilling or does not like sex
- too much stress and pressure in life
- hormone changes with the menstual cycle,
pregnancy and childbirth
- menopause
Common problems which may make it difficult to
reach orgasm are vaginismus,
vaginal dryness, and
cystitis.
Vaginismus - when the vagina is unable
to relax and permit the penetration of the penis during intercourse.
Vaginal dryness - difficulties
triggering natural lubrication during sex.
Unresponsiveness -
lack of interest in
sex for women and men.
Cystitis - infection of the bladder and
urethra.
