Common Sex Problems

The following sex problems are the problems that I get the most questions about and are the most common problems for individuals and couples I see in my sex therapy practice. Should the problem or barrier you are experiencing not be covered here please contact me at this Just Ask Earl.... link.

Erection problems, or the clinical designation erectile dysfunction (ED), is still often referred to as impotence by many.

Premature ejaculation (PE) is ejaculation that happens before a man wants to ejaculate. That may be out of want to extend his pleasure or to extend the pleasure of his partner.

Lack of desire can be caused by medications, stress, overall health, etc. and is often a secondary problem that starts after another sex problem. It can be addressed in sex therapy with a high degree of success.

Orgasm problems are experienced by many women. They are not able to achieve an orgasm, some have never experienced orgasm, and some say they are not sure whether they have had an orgasm. As with the male erection problem, the key to achieving orgasm is the brain. It must be immersed in sexy thoughts.

Vaginismus is the spasming of muscles in the vagina. It makes sex painful and, in many cases, prevents insertion of anything in the vagina. Some women cannot insert a tampon or even their finger.

Sex drive differences are normal. However, they can cause problems in a relationship. If the relationship is otherwise healthy, differences in sex drive tend to create problems about 20 percent of the time. In relationships that are not healthy, differences in sex drive can be the focus of arguments 80 percent of the time.
