Sexual dysfunction can affect men and women, in both the body and the mind. Sexual health is about more than mechanics; it’s about your emotions, your relationship and other aspects of your life and wellbeing that you might not even know about. Sexual dysfunction is an umbrella term for problems with excitement, arousal, plateau and resolution, so if that sounds like something that’s affecting you or your partner, you need to find a solution that works for you. As sexual dysfunction involves multiple wellness factors, you may need a comprehensive approach to tackle the issue from all possible angles:
1. Relationship counseling or couples therapy: Couples therapy can help you find out if there are any conflicts or patterns of distress between you that are getting in the way of your sex life. A sex counselor can also help you to learn your sensual preferences and dislikes and to communicate in a healthy way, so that you build up to better sex together.
2. Muscle Training: Both men and women can benefit from the kegel exercise, as it enhances the quality of erection and control of ejaculation in men, and the contraction of vaginal muscles in women. The exercise basically involves contracting your pelvic muscles and squeezing for three seconds, and then relaxing for three seconds.
3. Medications: If you’ve been affected by erectile dysfunction (ED) you might want to talk to your doctor about medications such as viagra, levitra, and cialis. You can also take testosterone hormones orally or as an injection if you suffer with hypogonadism or decreased libido. Remember to consult your doctor about any medications you’re already on that may be causing your sexual dysfunction, or interfering with your ED medications.
4. Surgery: There are a few surgical methods that might help you with your sexual dysfunction. these include a surgical correction for peyronie’s disease, penile prosthesis for ED, penis augmentation surgery for hypogonadism and surgery for correction of malformations in the penis – such as hypospadias – and female genitalia.
5. External Aids and Implants: For ED, a penis pump or vacuum constriction device can restore your ability to get a natural erection if you’ve just had prostate surgery or radiation therapy for prostate cancer. Or else, you and your partner can use a penis extension condom, which can be used more than once, or vibrators which have been designed to ergonomically stimulate your erogenous zones.
