treatment
Treatment should, first of all, be aimed at eliminating the cause of anorgasmia. If these are somatic diseases or infections – complex treatment of them, if the reason is purely psychological – consultation of a sexologist, psychologist. In some cases, counseling may be necessary not only for a woman, but also for her partner.
A woman needs to devote more time and attention to her body, to teach her to understand its desires, feelings. Partners are recommended to increase sexual stimulation, diversify their sex life, change the types of sex, poses, places of occupation. Include experiments in your relationship, and this should become, if not the norm, then for some period a mandatory point in the relationship.
Drug treatment of anorgasmia is indicated only if the causes are endocrine disorders. This is how estrogens are used – local vaginal creams, estrogens in combination with progestogens provide blood flow to the genitals and allow a woman to reach orgasm faster. With the ineffectiveness of estrogens, testosterone is prescribed, which also enhances the ability to orgasm.
