Sexual apathy is a decrease in sexual desire. The causes of female sexual desire loss include psychological factors, physiological changes, lifestyle, disharmony between husband and wife, chronic diseases, etc., and treatment should be targeted at the causes.
1. Psychological factors
Psychological factors play an important role in female sexual desire loss. Common psychological factors include negative emotions such as anxiety and depression, which may lead to reduced sexual desire. When women face stress or mood swings, it may affect their interest and desire for sex.
Psychological intervention measures such as cognitive behavioral therapy and behavioral therapy can help patients relieve negative emotions such as anxiety and depression, improve their mental state, and thus enhance their sexual desire. At the same time, psychological counseling and psychological support are also conducive to patients to establish a positive sexual attitude and outlook on life.
2. Physiological changes
Physiological changes are also one of the important reasons that affect female sexual desire. For example, the decline in estrogen levels after menopause may lead to symptoms such as vaginal dryness and decreased sexual desire.
Women can use some drugs to supplement estrogen levels under the guidance of doctors, such as estradiol valerate, diethylstilbestrol, estradiol, etc., to improve the symptoms of decreased sexual desire.
3. Lifestyle
An unhealthy lifestyle may affect women's sexual desire. Long-term fatigue, lack of exercise, unhealthy eating habits, and bad habits such as smoking and drinking may have adverse effects on the body and sexual function.
A healthy lifestyle has a positive impact on improving sexual desire. Maintaining a balanced diet and taking in enough nutrients is conducive to improving sexual function. Moderate exercise can enhance physical fitness, relieve stress and increase sexual desire. In addition, quitting smoking and limiting alcohol consumption is conducive to improving overall health and sexual function.
4. Disharmony in the relationship between husband and wife
Tensions or disharmony in the relationship between husband and wife may affect women's sexual desire. Lack of communication, mutual misunderstanding or lack of emotional support may lead to women's lack of enthusiasm in sexual behavior.
Through couples counseling, marriage therapy and other means, communication and understanding between couples can be improved, and feelings can be enhanced, thereby enhancing women's enthusiasm and desire in sexual behavior.
5. Chronic diseases
Such as thyroid abnormalities, diabetes, etc. may also have a negative impact on sexual function, leading to women's sexual loss.
For hypothyroidism, patients can follow the doctor's advice to use levothyroxine sodium tablets, thyroid tablets, liothyronine and other thyroid hormone supplements for treatment. For diabetes, patients can use metformin, insulin, glibenclamide and other hypoglycemic drugs for treatment under the guidance of a doctor.
In summary, there are many treatments for female sexual dysfunction. For each individual's situation, the doctor will comprehensively consider various factors and develop a personalized treatment plan. Patients should actively cooperate with doctors during the treatment process to jointly seek the best solution.
