The short answer is that I don't know whether there's a way to get past this sudden gag reaction, or why it's happening now. I do, however, have some follow-up questions that might help. Did absolutely anything else change at the time that you abruptly went from easily swallowing to immediately gagging? Your stress levels, diet, or environment?

Upon a sparse table lay a mannequin with its smooth Ken doll gooch exposed. In that valley of white plastic was a crude bandage. Next to the mannequin was a laptop running a slideshow about premature ejaculation. On one slide, a couple in black and white sits disgruntled. The woman has her arms crossed, displeased. The man sits despairingly with his head in his hands. This particular slide's accompanying text read "Premature ejaculation is the #1 male sexual dysfunction."

If I'd thought my job was done after only one talk, my very shy, introverted daughter would never have come to me during a very scary time. She felt off 'down there' and told me. I knew that she had a new partner and I knew they were probably having sex; I was having sex at her age. So while she was a little vague, I knew that she'd come to me for a reason.

No one warns you about erotic grief. We hear about and live menopause, testosterone changes, cancer treatment, chronic illness, and the slow, steady realities of aging-but almost no one prepares us for this part: One day, desire may not be as effortless as it once was. It may not rise on command. It may go quiet, or slow down, or disappear for stretches. And that shift can break your heart a little.

She's happy, healthy, and everything we could've hoped for. I had a vaginal birth at 36 weeks with just a bit of tearing, nothing too major, thankfully, and recovery has been going pretty well so far," she prefaces in her post on the Mommit subreddit. She notes that she's missing "intimacy" with her husband, noting the last time they had sex was when she was 32 weeks pregnant.

I love when my partner climaxes, but when he does, something really annoying happens-and I have to spend literal days dealing with the repercussions. When we have sex, I end up "dripping" cum for 24-36 hours after. I wish I was kidding. I always use the bathroom immediately after and sit for a bit to let it fall out, and of course a shower the next morning.

In many ways, taking a break from sex is an act of self-care, says Naomi Zelin, APCC, a sex and relationship therapist at Humbly Elevated. There are plenty of reasons to say no, whether it's due to something physical, mental, emotional, or all of the above. If it isn't making you happy, or if it's complicating your life, it makes sense to step away.

When it comes to having morning sex, the early bird catches the... I'm not even going to finish that one. We'll stick with this: It's time to rise and bang. There's much more than double-shot espressos and yoga routines waiting on the other end of an early wake-up call. Morning sex has so many perks, you'll forget why it was ever tempting to hit snooze.

An apparent lack of a sex drive could mean so many things, from low testosterone to stress to an identity crisis to ... stuff I don't even want to speculate on that I'm sure you've already worried enough about it as it is.

"Working from home doesn't just mean joining meetings in your pajamas and pretending to be productive while online shopping - it also means that spontaneous sex is just a hallway away."

Peyronie's disease, a condition in which built-up scar tissue can cause a bend in the penis, may require a urologist's evaluation to prevent worsening symptoms.

Consulting with a different medical team might provide fresh ideas about treating your cervix.

I began doing restoration exercises about four months ago. I love it. My glans is already more sensitive and the skin expansion/growth is boosting my soft-size, which is a nice little confidence builder.

High pornography consumption is associated with an increased (and false) belief that sexual choking is safe.

Gen Z believes that if we can have breaks for cigarettes and mental health walks, why not sex? It could be a morale booster.

"Each time," Sanjay said mournfully, "I failed." This repeated experience led to significant distress, culminating in a disconnection from his personal interests and social life.

When most people feel hot and sweaty, they start to get cranky and uninterested in physical touch or closeness, especially true for people not used to hot climates.

"You'll be in transit from one country to another; therefore, the risk is even more complex than when traveling within a single country."
