Story of a 52-year-old woman troubled by physical relations: What is the solution and advice?

Disagreements between couples over sex may be a common thing, but when the problem involves health issues and physical pain, the situation becomes even more complicated. A 52-year-old woman has shared her ordeal in which she is fed up with her 58-year-old husband's demands for sex. The woman said that she had undergone surgery on her uterus and ovaries five years ago due to an infection, after which she had no interest in sex. Apart from this, she also has many health problems like diabetes and high blood pressure, which further reduce her interest in sex.
The woman says that whenever she has sex, she has to face a burning sensation and pain for 15 days. Whereas her husband is unable to understand this situation and is always dissatisfied with her. He accuses the woman of not helping him with household chores and is afraid to go out, which makes her feel even more stressed.
This condition is not only harmful to the physical and mental health of the woman, but it also causes a sour relationship between them. The woman is advised to talk openly to her husband and explain to him about her physical problems. Also, some measures such as the use of estrogen cream, which can help maintain hormonal balance in the body, or the use of condoms, which can reduce pain and irritation, can improve the condition.
The woman also needs to understand that the desire for physical relations can vary at every age and it need not be the most important part of one's life. If physical relations are causing pain and discomfort, then she should not take this relationship as a compulsion and focus on the rest of the happiness in her life.
It is also important that the woman explains to her husband about her physical problems, and that a person's sexual desires may decrease after the age of 60. In old age, mental peace, love, and responsibility are more important than physical pleasure in life.
This story teaches us that open communication between couples and understanding each other’s health and emotions can strengthen their relationship.
