Case Study # 3

She was just 29 years old and leading the life of her dreams. She was married to a handsome and well-established man who was in his early 30s. He was very caring. Six months back, she delivered a healthy baby. But, problems began to arise post her delivery. She stopped enjoying in bed. In the past six months, she never felt like making sexual contact with her husband. She thought that it might be due to physical and mental stress as her sleep cycle got disturbed after having a baby. She would always stay busy in looking after the baby and could not take proper rest. She thought that things would get normal with time. But, when nothing got normal, she decided to see a doctor.

She was so young and would not want to disappoint her husband. Though her husband was very co-operative and understanding, she knew that her disinterest in sexual life would someday create big issues in her married life. She was happily married and wanted to lead a normal life with her husband. She could not understand how can this happen at such an early age. She had her entire life in front of her and she dreaded to lead her life the way she is leading now. She was worried that if the problem persists, her husband would leave her.

She narrated the issue to us and it took us no time to figure out that her loss of libido is due to the hormonal imbalance that arises due to pregnancy and breastfeeding. But, to confirm our diagnosis we asked them both to undergo some basic tests including the blood test and pelvic exam.

The couple came to us with their reports and we confirmed the diagnosis. We told her that she is suffering from HSDD, i.e. hypoactive sexual desire disorder. We explained to her that it is due to the hormonal imbalance and absolutely normal. Often new mothers face an acute crisis in their sexual relationships due to hormonal changes during pregnancy and breastfeeding, and also, due to the mental pressure associated with nurturing and taking care of the baby. We offered her proper counseling and put her on some medications and hormonal therapy. She came back after three months and told us that she has regained the interest in her sexual life. She and her husband are leading a happy life.

Case Study # 4

She was at the age of 38 years when she was engulfed by the medical problem of premature menopause. The problems that she faced due to the condition included anxiety, fatigue, insomnia, depression, and loss of sexual drive or libido. She had 2 children and her husband was very supportive and loving. While there were no quarrels or strike between her and her husband because of this condition, the couple’s married life and family happiness were suffering. She reached to her gynecologist regarding the condition and the doctor guided her to us and our clinic.

We found that lack of sexual drive, fatigue, and other associated problems was causing depression in the patient. The patient reported that she did not have a libido or a desire for sex at any time of the day whether it was the daytime or night. She also reported that apart from the lack of sexual desire, she also felt exhausted most of the times and was also not interested any other kind of life activities, which she used to be before entering into menopause.

After heeding what the patient has to say, we initiated a proper medical examination so that all abnormalities concerning the health of the patient were revealed. We found proper and normal genitalia and there were also no other allied conditions (apart from menopause) associated with the patient. We also found certain lifestyle and dietary abnormalities after we indulged in and discussion with the patient in this regard.

We carried out a multi-pronged approach towards treating the patient. We provided her medications of Ayurvedic nature and origin for a “month” duration.

Case Study # 5

He was a successful manager in a leading IT and Tech firm. When he reached the age of 30, his parents decided that it is the right age for him to get married. But when the parents expressed their desire to their son, something unexpected came to the fore. He said that he did not have any sexual fantasies or desire, and told to his parents that he did not have any kind of sexual craving for the past 1 year or so. The parents were alarmed by this revelation and suspected that their son was suffering from some kind of physical or mental disease. The family physician of the concerned family guided them to our clinic.

The patient was accompanied by his parents when he first visited us. While he was shy and hesitant at the start, we started the discussion by asking him questions about his personal as well as professional life. He started opening up slowly and revealed that while earlier he had the regular desire towards having sex, lately he was not getting any erections and the sexual fantasies and desires were now absent or negligible.

We conducted a proper medical physical examination of the patient and found his genitalia to be normal. To know the medical condition of the patient better we asked him to undergo certain clinical tests. Through the test results, we came to know that the patient was suffering from Hypoactive Sexual Desire Disorder, the cause of which was a low level of the hormone testosterone in the body of the patient. Testosterone is the primary sex hormone found in males, which is responsible for sexual drive and libido.

We asked the patient to undergo a comprehensive therapeutic treatment program. We provided the patient certain Ayurvedic pills that could restore the normal hormonal balance in him. We also provided to him a diet chart and recommended to him certain foods that would help boost his libido.

She being an experienced lady understood that the problem is something else and she took an appointment with us for her son and daughter in law. She convinced her son to meet us at least once.

When they met us Anushka is the one who spoke the most. Then we talk to them separately. We found Anushka is all well and she loves her husband a lot. She is making best possible effort to make her look gorgeous in front of him and play a perfect role of mother, wife and dedicated professional. When we talk to Rohit he opened up about the real fact. He is under severe stress because he missed the chance of getting promoted as his boss preferred his relative for promotion. He could be at par with Anushka if he gets promoted.  He is feeling low and de-motivated in front of his wife.

We found that stress of Rohit is working on the relation badly and he is losing interest to have sex with his wife.

We shared the fact with Anushka in front Rohit and clearly said that they need to work on Rohit’s stress.
