One of the common complaints of couples undergoing fertility treatments is that the sexual intercourse becomes dulled and perfunctory. But it doesn’t have to begin to feel like a chore or become too routine.
Here are several ways to keep your sex life enjoyable during fertility treatments:
- Be creative in the bedroom.
- Be as spontaneous as possible. Even if you have to make love at a certain time or day, try to keep the spark alive.
- Don’t stop doing romantic activities together.
- Talk to one another if you feel like the sex is becoming lackluster. Communication is a key to a happier sex life.
- Don’t argue about sex; it will make it difficult to have a good experience.
- Don’t have sex when you’re exhausted; it will feel like a responsibility.
- Try not to use the terms “we HAVE to have sex today”.
In the end, if you begin to focus more on the fertility treatments and less on honing your relationship, it may be time to discuss the situation with your fertility specialist.
