Brief Answer: Please follow the tips given below Detailed Answer: Hello thanks for choosing www.healthcaremagic.com This is the most common pattern I have observed after some time of marriage. initially, there is extreme passion and desire to have sex so having sex more than once is common ,but as time passes, it tends to decrease. the reason is lack of adequate arousal and adaptation of your brain to the same routine of sex . you generally indulge in sex in the same way day after day, weeks after weeks so brain gets adapted and there is reduced arousal response with the same sexual cues. Second is the normal physiology . Every sexual cycle is followed by a period of Resolution which includes returning of genital organs to the pre excitation stage. There is a definite time interval, which increases with age and affected by stress, when you will not get erection . I suggest you not to get disheartened by this because this happens with a lot of normal couples. You can enjoy the intimacy with your wife with methods not requiring erection like hugging, massage, talking dirty, sharing your feelings, or oral sex. These are as satisfactory as vaginal sex.
