Once we experience ED it can lead to more pressure and stress the next time we go to engage. And then the natural byproduct is our desire tanks, and often those with erectile dysfunction also struggle with desire.

Female pain and discomfort during sex; should we just take one for the team? If we do, then we begin to associate sex with pain, and we are also overriding our boundaries. When we do that we often find a loss of desire or feel less inclined to want to go through the pain and discomfort next time.

All of this requires communication about how we are feeling. Start a conversation with “I’m not there, but I’m open to getting there and this is what I would like to do”. There are so many ways to find pleasure together, outside of traditional penetration.

Join Cassie Burton and Paula Leech as they explore and share suggestions and tips on how to communicate your desires or discomfort in a loving and compassionate way.
