Center for Women’s Sexual Health and Intimacy

If you feel like you have lost your “sexiness,” you are not alone. Nearly half of all women will face sexual issues in their lifetime.

Some problems are attributed to a reversible gynecologic or medical problem. These issues can be caused by a medical condition, relationship issues, emotional problems or a combination thereof. While the causes of sexual problems are varied and complex, they are not uncommon, affecting nearly half of all women and 30 percent of men. The most common types of sexual problems are lack of desire, difficulty becoming aroused and pain during intercourse.

Not all sexual problems require medical attention as many are temporary in nature. However, any sexual problem that lasts for more than a few weeks is worth a visit to the Center for Sexual Health and Intimacy at Richmond OB-GYN.
