Previous Episode: Dabbling in dipping

For the past few years my sex life has tanked dramatically. I blame 70% of it on menopause and the discomfort that can come with her. But then there’s the other 30% we can’t blame on hormones. There’s the day to day grind, the exhaustion, balancing kids, careers and marriage and the lack of passion and ‘newness’ in a 15 year old relationship. That’s a reality for many couples.

A dwindling sex life can lead to all sorts of problems both physically and mentally. Physically, if we don’t ‘utilize’ our uterus- we could very well lose it. With dryness and a thinning lining – our uterus can atrophy or, brace yourself, fall right out. While that’s not sooo common, it’s still a possibility.

If we slowly watch our sex lives set sail, we lose an important physical connection with our partners as well and that can cause stress and turmoil in a marriage as well.

But sex isn’t just for those who have ‘consciously coupled’, it’s for everyone regardless of relationship status. And as women, we have to start putting ourselves first and to that point – self love is critical (Yes. I mean masturbation. There. I said it). It’s critical for our bodies and our minds.
