Sex Is Different Lately Posted: 11-04-05 20:49pm
My husband and I have always had a great
sexual relationship. I haven't ever had
a problem with orgasm or anything.
My problem lately is that it seems to take
me longer than usual to get in the 'mood'
I then it seems that I am done before he
is. We use to be able to go for much
longer but now I am just like, "ok I got
one, I am done" then if he is not done,
then I feel like I have to fake it and
then if it goes too much longer it starts
to get really uncomfortable.
Is this something that just happens in
your 30's or what? I just can't think of
why this might be happening. I guess I
have been stressed, but my drive doesn't
seem to be affected it is just that lately
I prefer the 'quickie'
anyone else experiencing anything similar?

Questions-have you had a child lately? Do
you have children? Are you on birth
control and if so have you changed the
type you are one recently? Are you
pregnant? In the beginning of my
pregnancy I had this problem, after I had
my child I had this problem and after I
switched birth control I had this problem.
I am now back to normal and sometimes it
seems to happen randomly. I have to have
extra long foreplay and I have to tell
myself tonight is the night. I am only 22
years old, I don't think it has do with
age. Or I hope not anyway. I went and
seen my doctor, I told him I thought I was
going through menopause. He laughed at
me-i ended up finding out that my estrogen
level was to high for the type of birth
control I was on and I had to switch to
ortho tricyclen lo. Come to find out
pregnancy was tougher on my body than
expected. My levels were just going up
and down due to pregnancy. Call your
doctor and talk to him about whats going
on, it could be deeper than what you
think. Good luck and hope I could help.

to answer your questions; no, no, no and
no ... My husband and I are not having
children and he as a vasectomy. I
mentioned it to a friend of mine who is a
nurse and she said it could be hormones
changing as we get older (i am 32) and it
could be stress related.
I never really thought of this being a
problem I should worry too much about.
Like I said before, my drive doesn't seem
to have been affected. Only now it seems
that I just prefer the quickie. The only
other difference is that when he initiates
it, I just need more time to get 'ready'
than I once did. It seems not too long
ago that I would be ready to go pretty
much anytime.
Should I really tell my doctor about this?
What would/could she do? I really
don't like to take pills for anything
unless it is absolutely necessary.
