I think this is a more common issue than most people realize, especially in long-term relationships. My wife went through a similar change after she hit menopause. It turns out, hormonal shifts can significantly impact a woman’s physical sensitivity and even her desire for certain types of intimacy. For her, oral sex just didn’t feel the same anymore, and it wasn’t as pleasurable as it used to be.
We ended up speaking to a healthcare professional about it, and it opened my eyes to how complex female sexuality is. For her, a combination of hormone therapy and experimenting with lubricants made a big difference. She started enjoying oral sex again, but it took patience and a willingness to adapt on my part.
Another factor we considered was the technique. Over the years, what used to work perfectly for her wasn’t as effective anymore. We treated it as an opportunity to explore new ways to connect and bring her pleasure. It was almost like rediscovering each other all over again, which turned out to be really exciting for both of us.
The key takeaway for me was not to take it personally. It’s easy to feel rejected when your partner pulls away from something you both used to enjoy, but understanding that it’s likely about her changing needs can help you stay supportive and open.
