Hi Anon,

Thank you for sharing your question with the EmpowHER community.

Perhaps your girlfriend is one of the many women who deal with Female Sexual Dysfunction.   Female Sexual Dysfunction is persistent, recurrent problems with sexual response, desire, orgasm or pain — that distress you or strain your relationship with your partner. It is very common in women and can occur as a result of physical or psychological problem. 

Even though this may be the issue, it has to be properly diagnosed and treated by medical professionals.  Also understand its a topic that many (women and men) are hesitant and embarassed to discuss, so be very sensitive and patience with your girlfriend when talking about it.

As for what you can do as her partner, be sure not to pressure her about it.  Also, don't take on responsibility.  Its not something you can fix for her.  You can be supportive and that sounds like what you are doing.

I hope this helps.

Be well,

~Gillette
