This Premium Q&A, reviewed and published, features a real conversation between an iCliniq user and a physician.

Patient's Query

Hello doctor,

My boyfriend has little interest in sex. However, he does touch me everywhere daily, but physical intimacy happens less than four times a month.

What can I do?

Please help.

Thank you.

Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I have read your query, and I can understand your concern.

It is important to communicate your needs to your boyfriend. He could be stressed because of other reasons, or he finds himself unattractive, lowering his self-esteem. Mutual discussion can unearth many problems in the relationship, and sex is not an exception. In case the discussion between both of you is unable to find a solution it will be appropriate to seek professional help.

I hope this information will help you.

Thank you.
