Patient's Query

Hello doctor,

I have been married for 26 years. My wife and I have always had a wonderful sex life until around six years ago she had an affair. She ended it. I forgave her, and we moved on, I have only one problem our sex life crashed. She even totally refuses to go down on me now. Please help?

Regards.

Hi,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

Thank you for taking help from a psychiatrist. I can understand your situation. you need to talk with your wife about it and try to find a solution. Ask her about their sex life. You can not force her, but you can try to make her happy. Find out does she have depression? You should also find out the reason for low libido. It would help if you went for her thyroid profile or serum estrogen level. You can take her to your nearest clinical psychologist for marital counseling.

I hope that you get your answer.

Please let me know if you want some help.

Thank you.

Same symptoms don't mean you have the same problem. Consult a doctor now!
