What are sexual problems?

A sexual problem is something that keeps sex from being satisfying or positive. Most people have symptoms of a sexual problem at one time or another. For some, the symptoms are ongoing. But your symptoms are only a sexual problem if they bother you or cause problems in your relationship.

There is no “normal” level of sexual response. It’s different for everyone. You may also find that what’s normal at one stage of your life changes at another stage. For example, it’s common for an exhausted parent of a baby to have little interest in sex. And it’s common for people to have lower sex drives as they age.

Cause

Some common causes include:

Mental and emotional causes:-These include stress, anxiety, and depression. Other causes include relationship problems, fear, and a history of sexual or physical abuse. Being unhappy about your body can also be a cause.

Physical causes:-These include hormone problems, pain from an injury, and other problems. Certain conditions such as diabetes or arthritis can also cause sexual problems. During sexual arousal, blood normally swells areas of the vulva. If those areas aren’t stimulated enough, you may not feel as much sexual pleasure.

Aging:-This can cause changes in the vagina, such as dryness. As you age, your sexual desire may decrease.

Medicines:-Some medicines may lower sexual desire and arousal. These include certain medicines for depression, anxiety, and seizures.

Symptoms

Symptoms of sexual problems can include:

Less desire. You may have fewer sexual fantasies or thoughts. You may not want to have sex.

Vaginal lubricants:-Lack of lubrication in the vagina is the most common cause of pain with sex.
