Dear RN,

A woman’s sexual interest is influenced by many factors affecting intimacy such as physical well-being, emotions, past experiences and lifestyle.

A history of physical or sexual abuse may also interfere with one’s attitude towards sex. Other factors include a poor body image, fatigue and stress.

Hormonal changes that occur during pregnancy and breastfeeding may also affect one’s interest in sex. Factors such as stress, anxiety and depression may also affect ones interest or ability to enjoy sex.

Focus all your attention on sex. Nurture your relationship and yourselves. Relax, sleep more, go out more and feel good about yourself and your husband.
