Dear Dr I am 51 years male physically fit. Problem is at this age also I have very strong libido and wish to have every day sex. My wife is not supporting this and because of that I get the chance of sex only once or twice in week. I want to know is there anything wrong with me or my wife as she is 6 years younger than me. Please advise. Rgds.

Hi, neither of you is at problem. The problem is in the desire discrepancy. Its problem faced by millions of couples. The sexual physiology of men and women is different, so the problem is inevitable. And relationship factors (monotony), family responsibilities, stress and fatigue etc. Preoccupation with other things, attitude. Etc. Will add to it. Besides she is nearing menopause, so there will be hormone issues as well. Both of you should chalk out ways to sort out. You should step down a little and she should try to step up a little to balance the situation. Consult sexuality counselor in person. With right attitude and approach, your sexual life should improve significantly.
