I am mid 40’s, I’ve always had sex around twice to three times a week. I feel my libido has dropped, but I put pressure on myself to have sex at least twice a week- although I sometimes don’t especially want it, and then attempting to do it dooms me to ED. As a man I feel I should want sex all the time- but is it ok to just have sex once a week?

I’m 29 and I have sex less than that, to the disappointment of my partner. I used to always want it. I can’t tell if it’s my fear of disappointing her or my fear that I’ll lose my erection that is causing me to shy away from sex. So… I can say you’re not alone… at least.

You’ve described my situation quite well and for me, it came on suddenly. One evening we were having sex and then the very next day, I just wasn’t aroused and struggle to find that craving. Ironically, I turned 40 last month…

It’s ok to have sex when you both feel like it… we’re in our 30s and it’s 1-2 times a month usually. More would be great, but there’s always a lot going on and she isn’t in the mood often as a result.

I was like this with an ex partner, the assumption from most women is men want it all the time and constantly ready. Hopefully if you speak to your partner they will try to understand and you can move forwards from there
