At times, decrease in sex might indicate a sign of some other issues. Thus, it is imperative to acknowledge there is this decrease in sex before the doctor diagnoses the condition as problematic. Prior to giving up on your sexual life, it is advisable to ask yourself the below-mentioned questions:
- Is furiousness the reason for decrease in sex among both of you?

It is the time to take intimacy to a completely new and deeper level, which needs willingness from the both the partners. This will in turn help to flood the dry sex spell out of your life.
Bottom line is that decrease in sex or lack of sexual intercourse is a sign of serious problem, which needs immediate attention. In case you are not able to recall the last time you guys had sex, then I would suggest you to make a checklist of all the stuffs that hold you back from having sex such as work stress, lack of enough time, etc. and then start finding apt solutions to the same.
Nevertheless, the most vital step to find a happy conclusion is to be open and discuss the problems with your partner without hesitation.
