I believe we know that many people will experience frigidity in certain situations, but what exactly causes frigidity? After understanding it, I learned that this is related to some drugs. So, what exactly are these drugs?

5 kinds of drugs may cause frigidity

1. Diuretics: hydrochlorothiazide, methiazide, chlorthalidone, furosemide, diuretic acid, spironolactone, etc., can cause loss of sexual desire and lack of sexual excitement.

2. Anti-tumor drugs: cyclophosphamide, nitrogen mustard, melilan, vincristine, procarbazine, methotrexate, etc., can cause loss of sexual desire and suppress ovulation.

3. Hormone drugs: cortisone, prednisone, dexamethasone and other glucocorticoids and androgens such as methyltestosterone, testosterone propionate and nandrolone propionate can cause loss of sexual desire and abnormal ovulation.

4. Anti-allergic drugs: diphenhydramine, phenergan, chlorpheniramine, chlorpheniramine, etc. and dopamine blocker fluphenazine, etc., can cause loss of sexual desire, reduced sexual excitement, vaginal dryness, and sexual intercourse. Pain, inhibition of orgasm.

5. Antihypertensive drugs: methyldopa, guanidine, hydralazine, reserpine, plasmid, mecamylamine, clonidine, fazosin, etc., which can cause loss of sexual desire and sexual excitement. , loss of orgasm.

Five diseases are also the root causes of frigidity

1. Diabetes

Diabetes causes frigidity, mainly due to complications. For example, diabetic vascular disease reduces vaginal secretions and lubrication, resulting in dryness and pain during sexual intercourse; neuropathy weakens the sensitivity of nerve endings in the vaginal wall, making it difficult to stimulate orgasm; vaginal and urinary system infections in diabetic women It is also relatively common and will have a negative impact on the patient's sexual life.

Experts suggest that women with sexual dysfunction should undergo diabetes-related examinations.

2. Thyroid disease

The thyroid gland is an endocrine organ that secretes thyroid hormones and directly regulates the secretion of female testosterone. When thyroid function is low, thyroid hormone secretion decreases, and testosterone also decreases, causing sexual enthusiasm to decrease. During hyperthyroidism, thyroid function is enhanced, thyroid hormones increase, norepinephrine, dopamine, 5-hydroxytryptamine, acetylcholine, etc. will change, weakening the ability to regulate regulatory expression; at the same time, too much thyroid hormone inhibits the secretion of pituitary gonadotropins, Menstrual irregularities or even amenorrhea may occur, leading to sexual dysfunction. Therefore, women with frigidity should go to the hospital to check their thyroid function in time.

3. Clitoral adhesion

The clitoris is the most sensitive erogenous zone in women. In some women, the outer skin of the clitoris is too long and covers the entire clitoris, which is called clitoral adhesion. This causes the head of the clitoris to be unable to receive stimulation and induce sexual excitement. In addition, the outer skin of the clitoris is too long, and secretions accumulate between the outer skin of the clitoris and the head of the clitoris, inducing inflammation and weakening "sexual interest." Therefore, if you find unexplained low sexual desire, you should go to a gynecologist to check the clitoris in time and provide reasonable treatment.

4. Premature ovarian failure

Premature ovarian insufficiency means that a woman’s ovaries lose their ovulation function prematurely, leading to varying degrees of hot flashes and sweating, vaginal dryness, decreased sexual desire and other symptoms similar to menopause. The results of ovarian biopsy can be divided into two categories: Follicle depletion type and normal follicle number type. The causes of follicle depletion include: congenital low follicle reserve or hereditary diseases such as galactosemia; follicles are attacked and destroyed by physiological and chemical factors such as chemotherapy, radiotherapy, surgery, and environmental toxins; and have suffered from viral infections, such as mumps, etc. . Most patients with premature aging who have a normal number of follicles have underdeveloped follicles and reduced sensitivity to gonadotropins, leading to premature ovarian failure. For premature ovarian failure, you should receive formal treatment from a specialist as soon as possible.

5. Depression

According to statistics from psychologists, the rate of potential depression among sexually frigid female patients can reach up to 26%. Therefore, it is also necessary to get checked for depression.
