Satisfying sex requires various things, including your body, thoughts, health, beliefs, and sentiments for your partner. Here are some potential causes for sex-related issues.
Beside the patients that usually ignore the issues and after finding the problem deny or postpone the treatments ,there are other contributing factors that delay or cancel the treatments including
1. Cultural and Social concepts around female sexual dysfunction:
Talking about sexual feelings and female reproductive part (Vagina and Vulva) is a big taboo in many cultures. The girls are learning to be silent about the feelings and this part of the body in such societies. They hesitate to report any normal or abnormal feelings like lack of libido that may have and learn wrongly that many changes that women face after childbirth or ageing(like vaginal relaxation and urinary incontinence)should be accepted in silence. In such societies talking about Sexual feelings, lack of libido, lack of orgasm and symptoms of pelvic relaxation syndrome is very hesitating .In long term the society will face many cases of mental health problems ,relationship issues because of this culture that could be prevented and treated easily years before they happen.
2. Family and Husbands (Partners):
The role of Husbands(Partner) are very crucial. Usually they are the first person who notice the changes of the patient and the way that they can support their beloved women is really important factor.In some cultures when after frustrations the patient decide and discuss her problem with their partner,they will be asked many non rational questions like : why you are thinking that it is abnormal, from whom you find that there is a condition like orgasm?why do you want experience it ?and in many countries still they do mutilation that is
3. Social media policies:
In an effort to keep the audience safe, many social media platform opt on the censorship of all content related to sexual problem and women health issues. This is due to the words used to describe these issue are sensitive and limited in vocabulary that can get flagged and cannot be used in social media contents.
There are limitations also related for the infographics and for pictures also for the captions to promote and educate women to make them aware of these problem.
4. Local health Authority rules and regulations:
After passing all above obstacles there are also very restricted rules and tight margin for the content creators to come up with material that passes all local authorities requirement and can be published safely to reach a large number of audience. Especially when we talk about subject related to female sexual dysfunction and vaginal health related treatment options.
