Many women face the problem of female sexual dysfunction. In order to contact a specialist in time and eliminate the cause of any sexual disorder, it is necessary to know their characteristic signs and features. That is why Estet-portal decided to devote this article to the problem of sexual disorders in women and talk about vaginismus, anorgasmia, aversion and female frigidity, which often get in the way of a woman's sexual (and not only) life.
Sexual disorders in women, contrary to public opinion, are much more common than in men. It's just that men's sexual violations are especially noticeable in sex, but women's can be hidden.
What do you mean? If a partner has lost an erection or a sexual desire does not arise for a long time, this becomes noticeable immediately. But a woman can easily have sex without desire, without excitement, and without orgasm. And this is not perceived as a sexual dysfunction at all.
In the absence of sexual satisfaction, conflicts arise more often, and it is more difficult to build relationships, more claims and demands appear. Yes, and elementary stress relief (which is simply chronic among the inhabitants of modern society) does not occur. Hence the constant fatigue, irritation. In general, the role of sexual life in psychological well-being is undeniable. So in what cases should a woman seek help from a specialist?
Sexual disorders in women: female frigidity, anorgasmia and vaginismus
Female sexual dysfunctions include:
- frigidity;
- anorgasmia;
- sexual disgust or aversion;
- vaginismus.
Female frigidity – lack of sexual desire and sexual arousal, which is accompanied by a lack of sexual fantasies, sexual initiative, even the inability to choose an attractive man.
Anorgasmia – lack of orgasm during sexual contact. As a rule, it occurs in frigid women, although it can occur regardless of the presence of frigidity. Some women cannot achieve orgasm through intercourse, but achieve it through masturbation, while others do not experience it either through masturbation or intercourse. There are also differences and tolerability of anorgasmia. Not getting an orgasm, some women get a certain psychological satisfaction from having sex, while their arousal gradually fades away.
In other women, anorgasmia causes tension and anxiety (headache attacks, insomnia, irritability in relationships with a partner, etc.). And when the presence of anorgasmia causes inconvenience (such as avoiding intimacy, cooling off from a partner or gynecological problems), then, in general, women turn to a specialist for help.
The causes of anorgasmia, as well as female frigidity, can be:
- strict upbringing
- psychotraumatic circumstances of childhood, adolescence, as well as the onset of sexual activity
- parent relationship model transfer
- an unformed attitude towards one's own body, towards one's sexuality
- negative attitude towards masturbation and fear of its consequences
- Strained relationship with a partner and failure to use effective methods of sexual stimulation.
Aversion – such negatively colored emotions as disgust or fear, at the mere thought of intimacy. Due to such emotions, intimate processes are avoided, not infrequently with the help of conflicts and quarrels with a partner. In some women, disgust is generalized even to the touch of a partner. The causes of aversion can be experienced psychological trauma, violence, as well as broken relationships with a partner.
Vaginismus is quite rare. Vaginismus is the contraction of the muscles of the vagina when "trying" or even thinking about intercourse. It is based on psychological reasons. Brautigam distinguishes 2 types of women with neurotic personality traits in connection with vaginismus:
- Women with an infantile attitude towards sex – their sexuality is associated with fear and guilt. Such women know very little about sex, they do not know their body and its needs well, they ignore their genitals, considering them to be something dirty and shameful. In general, such women do not want to take on the role of a mature woman.
- Women with a competitive, aggressive attitude towards men. Such women do not want to obey men, for them sexual penetration – dangerous weakness of submission.
Dear women, Estet-portal recommends: do not be ashamed, do not hesitate to contact a specialist. After all, once you decide to seek help, you will significantly improve your life, both sexual and partner!
