If you get embarrassed to talk about sexual health and your body in front of your doctor then you are not alone. Many couples find it difficult to discuss sexual problems with a doctor because they feel they might be judged.  For all the above problems, a great solution is online sexual health consultation with a doctor of your choice. Not only do you feel safe and secure, you can actually discuss at ease the issues affecting you and your partner without getting embarrassed.  

Here are some of the advantages of why this option is better compared to the traditional approach of consulting a doctor at the clinic.

  1. 24X7 Availability of the doctors: In online sexology consultation, there’s always a doctor available for you to communicate with. Forget about waiting for hours or days for consulting with a sexologist regarding your sexual issues. The easy availability of the online sexologists has made it easier for those affected by chronic sexual issues. By looking at the profiles, it becomes simpler to opt for a doctor as per personal preferences.
  2. No worries about feeling embarrassed: In the majority of cases, people feel ashamed or embarrassed to talk about their sexual health or sexual issues with others. It is for this reason, most people with even serious issues affecting their sexual organs refrain from seeking help from a sexologist. Such embarrassments can be a thing of the past when you can talk to the doctor from the comfort of your home. Since you are not facing the doctor, it might be easier to discuss your problem and get the proper treatment. Moreover, the private conversation remains confidential between the patient and the doctor as typically there would be necessary safeguards in place to avoid information leaks.
  3. Simpler to opt for a second opinion: Along with no location boundaries, online sexology consultancy is also tremendously helpful when it comes to availing a second medical opinion. Irrespective of whether you are already visiting a doctor in his clinic or an online sexologist, you can always refer to other sexologists easily through the online mode. Further, looking for a different medicine approach can be helpful, in case the former ones fail to offer suitable results.
  4. Ease of access to the medical history: Since your medical history and the latest medical reports will be saved in the virtual world, easy reference to them is often considered as another significant benefit of online sexology consultancy. Whether it's the prescription of the medications offered by the doctors or the investigation reports, everything will be at your disposal, only a click away.
  5. Cost of consultancy: At times patients often complain that they were overcharged during the personal visit to the sexologist, which is something that online consultancy can help you control. As you cannot be overcharged for an online consultation because the doctor will have to keep the pricing transparent. 

Given there are many different conditions that can affect your sexual health organs, it might be only wise to seek the advice of an experienced sexual health doctor. Remember that sexual health issues can also arise from other health problems and hence its best to get it treated. Whatever be the issue, you need not suffer silently.
