Menopause occurs when your ovaries stop releasing eggs and your monthly period stops.

At menopause, your sex drive and sexual function can get affected. It may take longer for you to get aroused and reach orgasm, and orgasm may be less intense.

In relationships affected by menopause or hormonal changes, common concerns about sexual satisfaction might include decreased libido, vaginal dryness, discomfort during intercourse, and changes in orgasm intensity. Effective communication, exploring new forms of intimacy, seeking medical advice, and trying different solutions can help address these concerns.

Addressing these concerns requires open communication, empathy, patience, and a willingness to adapt. Seeking professional guidance from healthcare providers or therapists who specialize in sexual health can provide valuable insights and strategies to navigate these challenges.
