When I ask why she has gone off sex she says she doesn't know. She says she doesn't want to hurt me or put me through this. I'm really in a bad way with this as I feel so sick, I can't eat or swallow when I do eat I throw up. I don't know how to get her back or what went wrong.I could do with some help here!thanks

Your partner maybe experiencing the menopause, of which lack of sex drive can be an issue for some women. One of the reasons is that the progesterone hormone levels can drop with the menopause, along with a change in estrogen and testosterone. This can have a major impact on how a woman feels about herself and her sexual appetite. There are solutions such as hormone replacement therapy and a simple blood test at the doctors would identify if she is menopausal.
