In Sin Reglas we look at the problems of premenopause, menopause and postmenopause in a comprehensive manner, taking into account that sexuality is one of the most affected areas in this period.

Sexuality in menopause has different alterations for most women. The most common symptoms are lack of sexual desire, decreased lubrication, less intensity in arousal and orgasm, vaginal dryness that causes itching and burning that generates pain during intercourse. There may also be joint pain that influences body mobility, breast pain, dryness and loss of firmness in the skin that influences self-image, in addition to the sensations of embarrassment and sweating that cause body closeness to be complicated for some people.

These symptoms clearly hinder intimate interaction, either with oneself or with a partner, in addition to the discomfort of vaginal dryness and pain. That is why it is important to have information about what is happening in the body, what are the options to reduce these symptoms, if there is a partner to work together to promote empathy and alternatives to recover the erotic life with and without penetration, considering the relational situation in which the person is, that is, if you are single looking for a partner, if you have a new relationship, if you have been with a partner for a long time and also have fallen into a relationship with a partner, if you have been with a partner for a long time and also have fallen into a relationship with a partner, if you have been with a partner for a long time and also have fallen into a relationship with a partner, if they have been with a partner for a long time and have fallen into a lack of novelty, monotony and little erotic freshness, if they have a relationship that has been accumulating feelings of resentment, anger, pain, sadness that can also reduce desire, if their sexual life has been rewarding or not, among other situations that may influence the lack of sexual desire in addition to physical and emotional symptoms.

It is important to recover sexual health regardless of whether sexuality is going to be shared or not, since genitalia is a powerful chakra, it gives strength and self-esteem, strengthens the pelvic floor muscles, helps the discovery of new sensations. It is estimated that the female genitals have between 6,000 and 8,000 nerve endings, provides endorphins, dopamine, serotonin, oxytocin and other hormones that are very helpful not only body, but are an embrace to the emotional sensitivity of menopause.
