  • Doubts about sexual and sexuality development
  • Differences in sexual desire : My partner wants to have sex frequently but I can’t or it is the other way round
Sexual desire: I have relatively low sexual desire. I have relatively high desire. I find my sexual desire erratic.

Sexual desire is of two categories: Raw sexual desire (also called horniness) and desire in a chosen relationship. Raw sexual desire is innate, biological and is determined by the level of testosterone hormone in blood. This is highest around 17, and stays high up till the age of 24, imperceptibly declining till middle age, thereafter perceptibly. On the other hand, the sexual desire in a relationship depends on the closeness with a partner, and how you are comfortable with a partner. It often happens that the young men who have low desire have normal testosterone levels, but due to interpersonal difficulties they face lower sexual desire. Normally these men respond positively to erotic material and they frequently masturbate when alone, evidence that they have normal hormonal levels. Talk to Us

Sexual arousal issues : Even though I have desire to go for sexual activity, I do not feel like participating.

One may not feel like participating in sexual activity even with normal desire due to some of the reasons like physical tiredness, stress due to any reasons etc. which may be naturally frustrating to anyone. Although the desire is quite adequate, the body and mind may not be adequately prepared to have sex. Resting sufficiently or removal of stress should solve the problem. If not, there could be deeper layers to it. To explore them,  Talk to Us

Sexual arousal issues : I’m so exhausted due the activities of the day that I am unable to enjoy my sex life.

For most men who run a tight schedule in the day and return home with very little energy, desperate to hit the bed, “night sex” is certainly not for them. Morning or any other time when they are charged should help them enjoy sex to the fullest. For most of the couples who get very less time for each other, it not only reduces the frequency of their sex, but the relationship may be at stake and get impaired in the long run. This is the sign of predisposition to the unsuccessful marriage and family. For more information  Talk to Us

Sexual performance : I have a difficulty in initiating or maintaining an erection.

Any normal male experiences difficulties with erection at least once in his lifetime. Often this is known to be connected with dysfunctional purpose of sex like “trying” to have sex to please the partner, for social or others acceptance and validation, for the demands of impregnation and lacking intimacy between the partners. It often occurs when the man loses his meaning in sex and chooses to act for others.

Sometimes it can also be because of unfavorable situations, difficulty in relationship, changed preferences, apprehension about causing pain to the partner and distractions rather than due to a physical cause. If you have had one erection lasting for about five minutes during the past 3 months, consider yourself as physically in a good state and you can get it back. If you’re still concerned about difficulties with your erection,For more information  Talk to Us.

Foreskin pain: I feel that my foreskin is very tight and painful to retract. I also experience pain during penetration.

For some, the foreskin may not be retractable at all and yet can involve in sexual intercourse. Whereas in a few, the foreskin may be half retractable. This may be painful during sexual intercourse. The accompanying anxiety adds to the problem in most of the cases. So, if you are experiencing such a problem, you can begin to retract it in the ‘non erect state’ and continue with the erect state which may be helpful. If you find any difficulty, we can help you. For more information  Talk to Us

Foreskin pain : Earlier I was able to retract my foreskin easily, but now I cannot

If you were able to retract your foreskin earlier and not now, it is understandable that any attempts to sexual intercourse may be painful. This may be quite frustrating to you. Such a problem could be a sign of ongoing infection on the head of the penis especially when any cuts/cracks are seen over the foreskin. These are common in diabetics, so diabetes control is required along with treating the problem. For more information  Talk to Us

Partner’s low sexual desire : My partner doesn’t have similar interest when it comes to sex

It can be painful to feel rejected or sexually distanced by your partner. There could be many reasons to this from relationship issues, differences in the level of sexual desires, unfavorable situations, partner’s earlier trauma, ongoing, unidentified psychological issues to changed priorities etc. To explore more about this and get help,   Talk to Us

Sexual orientation/Preferences : I have worries about my sexual preferences

Being attracted to same and/or another gender is ABSOLUTELY NORMAL. Yet you may feel not understood, forced by society/family members to follow conventional marriage, scared or embarrassed that others may come to know about your sexual preferences/choices, scared of social/family rejection and shaming. If you’re married, you may not feel sexually attracted to your spouse and may struggle to consummate or impregnate the partner. You may also have a desire to change your preferences.

Worries about Ejaculation: I ejaculate much early than I/my partner intend to. I am worried that my partner could be dissatisfied with it

Ejaculating too early for a beginner, with a new partner or in the episodes of infrequent sex is quite common. This problem should disappear after a month of regular sex with the same partner in a safe environment. Most of the times having improper idea about sex and satisfaction in the relationship can bring great anxiety associated with fast ejaculation.

This condition known as premature ejaculation disappears naturally. If it still persists,   Talk to Us

Worries about Ejaculation:It takes very long time for me to ejaculate during intercourse leading to exhaustion.

If you have ejaculated once under any sexual excitement, that means you are normal. Ejaculation of semen occurs at the peak of one’s sexual stimulation. Any distraction which comes in the way of reaching the peak results in delayed ejaculation or Anejaculation (No ejaculation). There could be psychological/Emotional reasons (Less likely to be the effect of drug or a physical condition that you are going through) that may inhibit you from reaching the climax during sex. For more information  Talk to Us

 Worries about Ejaculation: I lose my erection soon after ejaculation. I am unable to have an erection soon again.

In a younger age, Re-erection is quick and more likely to happen because of high sex hormone level in the blood. As one ages, the hormone level comes down and so the Re-erection capacity. What concerns you more about not being able to develop another erection sooner is worthwhile to be addressed. For more information  Talk to Us

Worries about Ejaculation: I experience pain during or after ejaculation.

The pain associated with ejaculation is usually caused by infection in the path of semen flow. A good history of sexual exposure or associated UTI will help to diagnose and treat the problem accordingly. Apart from pathological reasons, some men experience naturally slightly uncomfortable sensation in their testicles/ groin during/after ejaculation without the evidence of any physical problems. This is quite normal as long as the pain is tolerable; not coming in the way of you enjoying sex and when there is no evidence for a medical condition. For more information  Talk to Us

Sexual abuse: I have had a history of child sex abuse/ sexual abuse by my partner/spouse. Can I get help in overcoming it?

Most sexual offenders are acquainted with their victims; Abuse of people with developmental disabilities is common due to lack of understanding and comprehension. Sexual abuse is a very serious concern! The effect it creates on the victim includes shame, self-blame, depression, anxiety, PTSD, self-esteem issues, fractured sense of self, sexual dysfunction, suicidal ideation, addiction, personality disorders and self-harming tendencies apart from physical pain, wounds and infection.

Most of the men feel this way especially in the early years of sexual activity when they fall prey to the common myths, misconceptions and misbeliefs prevalent in the society.
