What is sexual dysfunction and how common is it?

Dr. Saransh Jain

               Sexual Dysfunction is a problem hits when the appeal of sexual desire exists but the foreplay leads very little time,  in a person's sexual desire, arousal, or orgasm.

            It affects as many as 1/3 of men and 1/4 of women our of per hundred men and women. 

           For couples dealing with infertility, it is even more common. Often, people ignore or downplay the sexual problems of infertile couples. Many think that the issues will go away on their own or will not have long-term consequences.

          Some sexual problems may go away when the pressures of infertility treatment end. But sexual difficulties often linger or get worse after treatment ends or a couple becomes parents. Even couples who never have major sexual problems often find they have times when they have less sexual desire and satisfaction because of emotional distress or the physical strains of infertility or specific treatment.

HERE ARE ARE SOME QUESTIONS WHOSE ANSWERS MAY SOLVE SOME OF THE PROBLEMS

Why is it more common in couples with fertility problems?

Infertility treatments often bring stress, psychological demands, and physically intrusive procedures. These can affect a person’s sexual self-image, desire, and performance. For many couples, making love is a way to connect emotionally. When their sex lives are associated with failure, frustration, anger, and resentment, they can lose this way of showing their emotions. The pressure to perform, and to have (or abstain from) sex due to infertility treatment plans can push couples even further apart. Fertility treatments can make sex less spontaneous and less enjoyable. As sex becomes focused on baby-making, couples often stop lovemaking for sexual pleasure.

                             These issues can get worse as fertility treatments go on. It doesn’t matter if a couple already had problems with sexual dysfunction or if the problems started with infertility treatments. Sexual dysfunction can take a large toll on emotional well-being. It can also increase the disappointment of not having children and the distress of medical treatment.

What happens with sexual dysfunction physically?

For many couples, sexual performance is affected by the pressure to have planned sex, the pressure to perform on-demand, extensive and painful tests, and anxiety. Other issues can include turning over control of such a personal aspect of life to a health-care provider. As infertility continues, feelings of sexual inadequacy and depression can occur due to the emotional link between sexuality and fertility. Many couples in infertility treatment say they avoid sexual intimacy during non-fertile times. Men and women can lose pleasure from sexual activity that isn’t for baby-making and may avoid sex or not care about having sex. This can lead to a loss of affection overall, and couples may feel tension or disconnected.

What happens with sexual dysfunction emotionally?

Depending on how they are affected by these problems, some couples will need to seek medical help. Others will benefit from counseling or psychological support. Overall, a combination approach is a helpful strategy. Sex therapy and medications are often the best treatment approaches for physical and emotional issues. The most important factor in treatment is the couple’s willingness to reach out and ask for help..
