Sexual problems can occur at any stage of sexual activity.
If you find sexual intercourse painful or uncomfortable, if you are not sexually aroused or cannot have an orgasm even though your partner is patient and loving, you may have a sexual dysfunction.
Sexual disorders may occur after a person's first sexual intercourse, or they may occur later when there is no problem in their sexual life.
Sexual dysfunction is not a rare condition in both genders. Do not be ashamed or embarrassed to seek professional help.

In the arousal phase of sexual activity, a wetting and swelling response occurs in the vagina.

Sexual arousal disorder in women causes the woman to experience sexuality without pleasure.
Orgasm Disorder

Vaginismus
When vaginal penetration is attempted, there are repetitive or continuous involuntary contractions in the muscles surrounding the outer third of the vagina. Contractions usually do not allow sexual intercourse and these contractions are completely involuntary.
