Sexual Counselling in India – How it is Important for Indians

MUMBAI, India - Oct. 26, 2015 - PRLog -- October 26, 2015 | Mumbai: The continual stress from work and lifestyle is leading to an increasing number of couples needing sexual counselling in India, says SexologyConsultant.com, a leading provider of expert medical advice on sexual health and wellness. The website reports that incidence is on the rise as despite advancements in societal norms and India becoming a more free-thinking society, discussion on sexuality is still taboo in the country.

Any reference to the subject is met with censure both at home and in popular culture, leading to increased psychological problems besides general misconception on the subject. For instance, a recent study by the website found an increased prevalence of sexual contact among young adults coupled with a lack of knowledge on even basic information. The study found a disturbing increase of 4.9% in sexually transmitted infections among individuals in the 10-24 years age group. The rampant surge of STD can be gauged from the fact that one of every three people suffering from AIDS in the country is an adolescent.

Dr.DebrajShome, the internationally renowned facial plastic surgeon, says, “Reproductive health is unnecessarily made a matter of embarrassment or shame, for a person to disclose a condition or willingly seek medical help.” He added that a lack of sexology experts in the country is adding to the woes. The stigma associated with sexual activity is so strong that most patients do not approach a doctor, making the speciality quite non-lucrative even among doctors who are keen to help heal their countrymen.

SexologyConsultant.com is expected to help Indians get over their unnecessary embarrassment and talk to experts for their medical problems from the privacy of their homes. The website allows patients to seek expert opinion online and get proper guidance from a doctor instead of relying on misinformation given by pseudo-experts and quacks. The doctors help people out on safe sexual practices, queries on infertility, conceptualisation, and many other related subjects. http://www.sexologyconsultant.com/
