A psychotherapist shares the common causes of a low sex drive in women
Sex drive or libido is a technical term for interest in sexual activity – and, specifically in women in this case, there is no such thing as a 'normal' sex drive., 34% of sexually active women in Britain had lost interest in sex for three months or more during the previous year. The stress and exhaustion of lockdown, job instability, homeschooling and constant bad news has no doubt impacted more women, too.
What often leads to issues, especially in long-term, heterosexual relationships, is a disparity in sex drive between partners., explains: 'It’s common for one partner’s sex drive to be higher than another... The cliche that women need closeness and connection to feel sexy, and that men need to have sex to feel close, is really a truth'.
Missing sex? Help is at hand. We asked Heather to explain the common causes of a low sex drive in women and share some tips to get your mojo back...'Obviously a woman's sex drive is controlled fundamentally by her hormones and her body's urge to get pregnant,' Heather tells'Additionally, it’s driven by the desire to bond or to be close to her partner. She will often find that the sex is better and more inviting if she feels close to him or her.
'A woman's sex drive changes over time as hormones change,' Heather says. 'Some women completely lose interest in sex at the menopause, while others will do so if they are exhausted or feel undervalued or unloved. If a couple become co-parents, more colleagues than lovers, and let go of their relationship with each other, then their sex life will suffer.''It's important to look after yourself as a woman first and foremost,' says Heather.
'In some cases, it might be that a woman will provide sex if her partner wants it, but this must never be in a coercive situation. The cliche that women need closeness and connection to feel sexy and that men need to have sex to feel close is really a truth. Learning to negotiate this well is very important, so respectful, honest and warm conversations will be needed here.'
