Indifference to marital relationship

This article is about women who suffer from sexual reluctance disorders and experience reluctance and decreased desire in marital relationship

A psychiatrist said that sexual aversion is the most common sexual disorder in women and is usually described as a lack or absence of sexual fantasies and the desire for sexual activity. And the erection state of the clitoris also returns during sexual activity, and the lack of such physiological responses can be temporary or throughout life. In addition to this complication, it can be general, i.e. in all conditions, it can be faced with the lack of physiological responses, or it can happen in special conditions (for example, in special situations of this issue).

Dr. Gholamhossein Quaidi said about this: “One out of every three women experiences significant reluctance in sexual activity, and given that the level of sexual desire is different in each woman, it is unique for each woman.”

V. Babian stated that sexual reluctance can be a situational sexual reluctance: “This complication in women may happen due to the presence of certain conditions or the feeling that a person has towards his wife or a combination of the two along with his specific psychological and physical symptoms. »

The associate professor of Shahid University and member of the family and sexual health research group continued: “Lack of physiological responses that lead to vaginal relaxation directly affects sexual desire and arousal, and subsequently orgasm and sexual satisfaction during marital relations. Therefore, identifying the issue of why the problem in sexual desire happened, should be done in the first step.”

Qaidi Babian continued that going to a sexual health specialist and thoroughly examining this issue can be helpful: “Generally, sexual reluctance is a multidimensional issue and various factors are involved in its formation. A person’s general health status, the presence of mental illnesses such as depression, the status of sex hormones, life stresses, endocrine insufficiency, peripheral vascular diseases, and even the use of drugs and their side effects are among the most effective factors in shaping this disorder.

Pointing out that the presence of various factors that shape this disorder can cause women who experience this condition to have deep differences, he said: “For example, given that the level of sexual desire varies from woman to woman. It is very different and variable; It is possible that women who do not have an active desire to have sex, can have an acceptable relationship in a romantic situation; These conditions are called reactive desire, which is just opposite to self-induced desire. “Usually, women who are diagnosed with this disorder are faced with a lack of physiological responses, which will result in painful intercourse and dissatisfaction in both the woman and her husband.”

According to this psychiatrist, this issue causes the woman to reduce her intercourse and sexual activity and her emotional and intimate relationships and face communication problems. The causes of this disorder are really complex; Therefore, it is recommended to refer to a sexual health specialist for detailed examination and evaluation.
