Reasons for refusing sex
Sexuality plays a vital role in sex, most of the time invisible, unexplored, and indescribable. But when you face someone and at a certain moment have an urge to own or be owned by him, you may feel that sexual desire is such a simple thing.

Physiological factors
Due to physical changes caused by illness or accident, both or one of the partners has sexual dysfunction or even lack of libido. Common problems are as follows:

Psychological and emotional factors
In addition to the reasons why both or one of the partners are no longer in a relationship, some people refuse to have sex because of psychological shadows or childhood trauma, such as having been sexually assaulted or having had an unpleasant experience in a previous sexual experience.

social factors
Affected by the social and cultural atmosphere, when it comes to sex-related topics, most people's attitudes are more inclined to avoid them.
The taboo of sex in the general environment makes people keep silent and hide their troubles and confusion about sex deeply. "Journal of Sexual Medicine" has published a study, research shows that many women do not tell their partners about the unpleasantness of their sex life.
The problem is covered up, but invisible doesn't mean it doesn't exist, and things will get worse over time.

(Well~ everyone answered very well~)

By stimulating neurotransmitter receptors, it can improve the sexual excitation of the cerebral cortex and hypothalamus, thereby promoting the smooth progress of sexual life. It is mainly a dopamine agonist drug, which is better for women.

sex therapy
Sex therapy may be unfamiliar to many of us, and the shyness to talk about sex makes this kind of work mysterious and dark.
Sex therapy has been seen in ancient India, China, Greece, Rome and other places since ancient times. It was not until the 1970s and 1980s that sex therapy had standardized procedures and began to be medicalized. Sex therapists are generally registered physicians or psychologists, and they are professionally trained and certified.

Sex therapy isn't as unspeakable or overwhelming as some might think, and while it's related to sex, sex therapists all share the principle that they will never have any form of sexual contact with their patients. It is not very different from other forms of psychotherapy and is designed to help individuals or partners resolve sexual problems and have a comfortable and enjoyable relationship and sex life.
Sex therapy is confidential throughout the process. Common methods are the use of psychological interventions and talk (alone or with a partner) therapy. Through effective discussion, the therapist will make recommendations based on specific reasons, and sometimes arrange some for both partners to try. Homework to aid therapy.
So, what specific problems can sex therapists help their patients with?

For example, the sexual needs of both partners do not match, and there are problems in marriage and sexual relations that arise after one of the partners cheats.

Dr. Krychman, a well-known sexual health expert, said that formal sex therapy will help both partners to better understand each other's sexual needs and desires, and are more willing to explore the relationship between the sexes, thereby enhancing sexual and emotional communication.
There are many benefits, but the key to getting effective help is not only your willingness to cooperate, but also a reliable therapist.
In foreign countries, sex therapists are common, but in China, sex therapists can only be regarded as a new profession, and most of the practitioners are nurses. At present, the sex therapists in mainland China mainly come from large hospitals. If you need help in this regard, you can boldly consult the local large general hospitals whether they provide sex therapy services.
Sex therapists are hard to find, and similar reliable psychiatrists are not easy to find. Psychological counseling is a very professional job that requires not only professional knowledge and qualifications, but also a healthy personality.
However, many people in China have started to engage in this industry as soon as they got the counselor certificate. Even if they have the original psychological counselor certificate, it can only mean that they have passed the exam and have not received complete and systematic professional training. Ability to engage in psychological counseling.
In addition, there are not many ways to find qualified psychologists in China, mainly including mental health centers in various regions, clinical psychology departments of hospitals, psychological counseling centers of various universities, and psychological counseling institutions in the society.
The information searched on the Internet is confusing, and it is difficult to distinguish between true and false. A qualified psychiatrist will inform you about his academic qualifications, professional training background, professional qualifications, and charging standards. If he does not mention any of these information, then it is best not to take risks.
When you meet an unreliable consultant, the consequences may be very dangerous. You think you can get rid of the knot, but you get deeper and deeper and even pay the price of your life. This is something no one wants to see. Therefore, it is recommended that you seek help Don’t just choose at random just because you are impatient. Usually, you are entangled between the ordinary number and the expert number when you see a doctor. People who choose to heal their own souls should not be careless either.
