After many girls have children, they will have some symptoms of postpartum depression. Sometimes they will not be interested in normal sex life, resulting in disharmony in sex life. So what about sexual apathy after giving birth to a child? What are the reasons for postpartum apathy?
What if you're not interested in sex
Actually, it's not a big deal. If the mother is not interested in sex or is afraid that sex will hurt at this time, she should actively communicate with her husband. Sex is only part of an intimate relationship. Good communication and husband and wife taking care of the newborn baby together are the embodiment of intimacy.
Before regaining sexual desire, you can try other ways to stay close. For example, when the child is asleep, creating time for two people to be alone, even just chatting and hugging, can also promote communication; You can also call and send messages when the day is separated. However, if the communication with her husband can not restore her sexual desire, but there are signs of excessive sensitivity, irritability, extreme fatigue, lack of fun, feeling estranged from her children in life, we should be alert to postpartum depression.
50% ~ 80% of women had more or less depression after childbirth, while 10% ~ 15% of mothers even had postpartum depression. If you are worried that you are postpartum depression, communicate with obstetrics and Gynecology or psychiatrist as soon as possible, and timely treatment can heal as soon as possible.
What are the reasons for postpartum apathy
1. Start sex too early.
After childbirth, the changes of the whole body and reproductive system caused by pregnancy and childbirth will have a certain inhibitory effect on sexual desire. Generally, only two months after childbirth can all organs return to normal, and sexual desire will gradually return to the state before pregnancy. If couples don't understand this, they start sex too early after childbirth, especially when some husbands' go their own way 'when their wives are unwilling. This not only affects the wife's physical recovery, but also causes the wife's disgust and disgust with sex life, and then develops into sexual indifference.
2. Overwork.
A harmonious and happy sex life needs to be based on good health and energy. After giving birth, women often devote their energy to their children and are not interested in sex itself. At this time, if the husband does nothing about the children and household chores, does not understand, care or help, and allows his wife to be busy alone, and he can only be energetic after going to bed, of course, this will not enable his wife to actively engage in sexual life.
3. Improper contraceptive measures.
Some women do not take effective contraceptive measures after childbirth. When you have sex, you are always afraid of pregnancy; In addition, some couples use the method of interrupting sexual intercourse for contraception. They interrupt sexual intercourse every time when their wife is close to orgasm. Over time, it may lead to sexual indifference.
4. Postpartum vaginal relaxation
Postpartum causes the elastic fiber in PC muscle to be strained or even broken, resulting in vaginal relaxation. Vaginal relaxation indirectly causes vaginal dryness, frequent inflammation, Yin blowing and other female problems. Husband and wife life is like a routine. In addition, it can't be carried out or have to end halfway because of vaginal dryness. If it goes on for a long time, it will affect the relationship between husband and wife and cause sexual indifference.
