Patient's question:
Why do I feel nothing during intimacy with my husband after giving birth? At first, I was quite interested, but then I lost interest midway, and he said it felt like he was doing it alone, with no sensation. Every time it ended prematurely because of the lack of feeling. Is it because I have a low libido? How can I treat it?Doctor's answer:
From the situation you described, it's true that you have experienced some degree of sexual coldness after giving birth. This is usually related to hormonal changes in the body, and a decrease in libido is generally caused by insufficient estrogen production. Caring for a child can be exhausting, which can also lead to a decrease in libido. It is recommended that you visit the endocrinology department of a hospital for a thorough examination and treatment, and you may need to take medication to help regulate your hormones. You can also consult a traditional Chinese medicine practitioner to take herbal medicine for regulation. Additionally, it's important to strengthen emotional connection with your husband and engage in adequate foreplay to create a warm and intimate sexual atmosphere.
