Women in all phases of life, young or old, married or single, experience fluctuations in sexual interest or response. Often, we find it hard to talk about our concerns or seek out answers, believing these feelings will change, or that we can learn to live with them.

This loss of libido is called Female Sexual Dysfunction, or FSD, a pretty daunting name for a highly treatable condition. FSD is not a disease, although it is a good idea to get your doctor's advice about changes in well-being. The bottom line is, you don't have to live with FSD or feel uncomfortable seeking solutions. Intimacy is a natural part of life and can be a wonderful part of living.

Female Sexuality
Female sexuality is a complex interplay of both physical and emotional influences and the complicated relationships between women and their partners.

Intimacy problems can be linked to temporary physical conditions, like pregnancy or illness. Other factors like stress, poor communication between partners, unrealistic ideas about performance, or problems with trust and commitment contribute to the loss of desire.

Loss of Desire
The most common concern in women is the loss or lack of desire. With a low level of interest, you might have difficulty feeling aroused. The stresses of daily living can leave you feeling exhausted or anxious. Real life concerns can drain your energy and your desire.

Complications arise when this lack of desire plays into a deeper set of emotions. Some women feel if they have diminished desire that they are somehow less of a woman or less of a partner. These deeper feelings can make getting close even more intimidating.

The Elusive Orgasm
Difficulty reaching orgasm can stem from a number of factors, ranging from lack of interest to negative feelings about intimacy. Each woman has her own perspective on the matter, learned from a lifetime of experience.

If you do not reach orgasm, it does not mean failure. Sharing intimacy and tenderness is a wonderful experience. Still, some women who never attain orgasm feel unfulfilled and seek solutions to this frustrating situation.

Causes of FSD
For women, sexual enjoyment is a complex mixture of physical stimuli and hormonal release, enhanced or inhibited by mood, mindset, and sense of security. Millions of women experience difficulties at some point in their lives. As we said, every woman who suffers from FSD faces unique reasons. Here are some of the common causes:
  • Stress
  • Depression
  • Medication/drug therapy
  • Temporary illness
  • Lifetime medical condition (such as multiple sclerosis)
  • Childbirth
  • Surgery/hysterectomy
  • Menopause/hormonal changes
  • Diabetes
  • Reduced blood flow
