Yes, it can. PCOS can affect self confidence, libido and your mood. Based on your physical changes and hormonal fluctuations, you may not feel inclined to having sexual relations as often as you used to. It may also affect what your feel your partner thinks of you. It is best to talk this out with your partner to understand what may work out for the both of you. Additionally, taking steps to manage symptoms can help bring back some confidence which can also improve your sex life.

Hi there, Yes, PCOS is likely to affect your sex life, as it may lower your libido. This is probably attributed to mood swings, weight gain ( sometimes), irregular periods, absence of ovulation which can affect the way you perceive sex. You may not feel like engaging in an act because of the hormonal roller-coaster your body has been experiencing. Hence, you as Doc Frank mentioned, you need to have an open conversation with your husband, and explain things to him, accordingly. If this doesn't help, it's best to see a therapist who would help you in understanding your emotions better :) he/she can explain the same to your husband as well. I hope this helps:) take care.

13785At its core, the connection between Ayurveda and Women health is rooted in the balance and harmony of the female body. The ancient Indian practice of Ayurveda recognizes that each woman has unique needs, and through mindful practices such as yoga, diet and lifestyle, it seeks to empower women to embrace their natural cycles.Ayurveda works to achieve balance by addressing the three doshas, or subtle energies that govern our bodies. These doshas are known as vata, pitta and kapha. Each dosha is associated with the elements of wind, fire, and water respectively and serve to regulate the physical body and the mind. When our doshas are in balance, we are healthy, vibrant and radiating peace.At a deeper level, Ayurveda looks at the physiological changes that happen in the body during our menstrual cycle. On a vata dosha day, for example, a woman may experience feelings of restlessness or anxiety. On a pitta day, she may have an increased appetite or feel irritable. And on a kapha day, she may be proneto fatigue or have difficulty concentrating. By acknowledging these nuances and adjusting her diet and lifestyle accordingly, a woman can learn to identify which foods will best nourish and restore her balance during the different phases of her cycle. Ayurveda Priests or holistic health practitioners are also available to guide women in developing a meaningful relationship with their menstrual cycle. Through such practices as yoga, meditation, massage, and breathwork, these professionals help women understand not only their body’s response to their monthly fluctuations, but also how to intuitively respond to them. Ultimately, Ayurveda provides a safe, holistic space for women to honour and celebrate their cycle as an important part of their emotional and physical wellbeing. By becoming more mindful and aware of the subtle changes that occur each month from one dosha to another, women are able to learn how to better nourish and care for their bodies .more
