- Dr.Arora talks about the importance of discussing erectile dysfunction with your partner:
Depending on the mutual understanding (very important) between you and your partner, sharing your problems and frustrations with attaining and maintaining your erection with her will go a long way in helping you feel better and less frustrated. In most cases the spouse will be understanding and compassionate.
Suffering from ED can make you abstain from sex and this maybe misconstrued by your spouse, leading her to think that the reason why you are not interested in sex is because you are not physically attracted to her or in some rare cases she might even think that you are having an extra marital affair.
This lack of communication can cause her deep despair and create problems in your relationship. So you have to make sure that you work towards communication and creating very good mutual understanding between you and your partner. (In-case you don’t have a good understanding with her, then it is prudent to consult with a qualified sexologist who can guide you about the treatment and consul you about how to discuss the same with her.)
- Dr.Arora also discusses why it is not good to mix your personal and professional life:
It is natural for most of us to discuss our work related problems(time deadlines, office politics etc.) with our spouse. What you need to ensure is that you don’t do so in your bedroom. Ideally you should discuss this outside of your house (while taking a short walk with your wife in the evening or after dinner etc.)
Avoid working on your laptop or other devices in bedroom at night. Doing this will ensure that the work related stress issues don’t distract you when you plan to get intimate in your bedroom.
