I've been struggling with this huge problem for years now. Ever since I was 11, I've been caught up with masturbation, and now at 31, it's like I've done it over 17,500 times. Some days I even did it 5 or 6 times. I think it's really affected me. If you met me, you'd probably guess I'm a 17-year-old because I still look like one, even though I'm 31. Going to the bathroom takes way longer, and there are times when my stomach and even my ribcage hurt. My body just hasn't grown or changed in yearseverything's been the same. I've never been in a serious relationship and haven't had sex. I feel like my bad friends pulled me into porn and this habit, but Ive almost stopped watching it now since my parents are trying to find someone for me to marry. Lately, I've been feeling down and really want to get back to a healthier place. Do you think talking to a sexologist could help?

I'm feeling really confused and a bit worried because I dont seem to feel aroused when I see a naked woman or watch porn. I do enjoy watching romantic scenes, though. When I touch and kiss for the first time, I do get an erection, but after a few minutes, I lose interest in continuing with more kissing or hugging, and I end up not maintaining the erection. Ive had all the necessary tests done, and everything seems normal. Can you help me understand what might be going on with me?
It seems like you may be experiencing a disconnect between physical arousal and emotional or psychological engagement. This could be due to various factors, including stress, anxiety, or even emotional intimacy. Since your physical health checks are normal, it might be helpful to explore these emotional or psychological aspects further, potentially with a therapist or counselor.

I'm feeling really worried because I've been married for four years, but my husband doesn't seem to have any sexual desire. He struggles with getting an erection and isn't interested in getting close to me. Lately, I've found myself being attracted to other guys just to feel sexually satisfied, but I really don't want to act on these feelings. Can you help me figure out what's going on and what I can do?
.there are many causes for decreased libido...they may be physical or psychological...physical causes may be due to hypogonadism resulting in low testosterone,certain prescribed medications, alcohol, smoking...for physical causes you need to consult physician or endocrinologist for detailed examination and evaluation with relevant investigations... If its psychological Consult nearest psychiatrist they will do the needful.
