Hello doctors, hope all is well. My wife and I are married for six years now and blessed with a baby boy (2 years old) my wife had a c section for the delivery. My wife is showing less interest in sex. We talked over the came to a understanding that we will mate once a week. However, due to her periods and other reasons, it will happen 2 times/twice a month. I am currently 33 years old and craving for sex, as she was away for her delivery to india for a very long time. When I approach her she is always in denial/rejection mode. It is kind of impacted my self esteem/self respect for quite some time. I am really pissed and stopped all intimacies with her (hugging, kissing, casual cuddling during a normal day) I help her in everything, shopping, house chores, child care etc. And even we have a house maid to take care of the cooking and other house chores. I tried talking to her to understand better, she says she is not interested in sex. I am very confused and depressed to some extent. I am trying to see is there any way to resolve this. Appreciate your help in this regard. Should I consult a sexologist or psychiatrist?

You need to slowly keep on doing all the foreplay like hugging, kissing, casual cuddling during a normal day and in bed. Gradually you try to see her problem and inform her of the need for intimacy to survive. If you can not handle you seek the help of a marriage counsellor along with her.
