Symptoms
An inability to maintain arousal sufficient to complete sexual activity; an absence of or inadequate lubrication; a lack of emotional and physical response to the sexual stimulation of your partner.
Absence of sexual desire, or an inability to find pleasure, in sexual intercourse.
CAUSES-Frigidity is generally of psychic, not organic, cause. There is guilt, fear, depression, a sense of inferiority or conflict with one's mate. Unfortunate experience and misinformation, received earlier in life, often lays the groundwork for the problem.
However, in some cases the woman may find intercourse painful because of inadequate stimulation, insufficient lubrication, or underlying infection or disease.
Causes
Anxiety about performance is a major turn-off when it comes to sex. Nearly everyone has occasional worries, but these can become exaggerated when one places too much emphasis on the physical, as opposed to the emotional side of love-making.
Conflict within the relationship is another important factor. If a couple is always arguing or one partner is resentful of the other, it can lead to problems in bed.
Equally, if one is very tired or worried about other things in life, it can affect libido. Other causes of frigidity include having been sexually abused as a child, over dependence on parents, depression, fear of pregnancy, and other health problems such as multiple sclerosis, and diabetes.
