Sexual response varies between women and within each individual. Sexual concerns are very common. Some sexual problems, while distressing, may reflect normal variations in a woman’s life. Shifting one’s focus to enhancing intimacy rather than having all interactions result in intercourse may help. Not all sexual concerns or problems are “dysfunctions.” Women need to pay attention to changes in their daily lives that may cause sexual dysfunction. In cases where medications cause sexual problems, the solution may be as simple as changing the medication or adjusting the dosage. Don’t be afraid to talk to your doctor and your partner. It can be difficult and uncomfortable to initiate a conversation with a doctor about sex, but the majority of women can be helped if they are willing to talk openly to their healthcare provider, to determine the best treatment for their specific problem. One immediate avenue for relieving sexual response problems is to regularly apply a stimulant cream, such as Vigorelle, to the clitoris either before or during foreplay.
