Sexologist answers queries on intimate urges and post-marriage blisters
People's bodies and feelings change as they grow up, and sometimes they have private questions about them.
Some people write letters to a special doctor, called a sexologist, to ask for help.
One young woman who was 22 years old said she had very strong feelings about being close to someone.
She wondered if she should be with a friend and if her future husband would ever know about it.
The doctor said she should think carefully about whether she could handle what happens next.
He suggested doing active things like sports, music, or helping others to keep her mind busy.
Another woman, who was 28 and just got married, found small bumps on her body and her husband's body.
The doctor said these were probably not a sickness, but caused by rubbing during close times together.
He told her to see a doctor and to wait until the bumps healed before being close again.
He also said a special safe cream could help their skin feel better.
A 22-year-old unmarried woman asked Dr. Narayana, a sexologist, for advice about strong sexual urges and whether to have casual sex with a friend.
The sexologist advised her to decide whether she could handle the consequences of casual sex and suggested diverting thoughts through vigorous physical activities or creative pursuits.
A 28-year-old woman married last month noticed pimples and blisters around her vagina within a week, and similar marks appeared on her husband's penis.
The sexologist said the blisters were in all probability not due to disease but caused by excessive friction to the genital skin during intercourse without adequate lubrication.
He advised getting examined by a doctor, avoiding sexual intercourse until the blisters disappear, and using an artificial lubricant like K-Y jelly if necessary.
