I have a fear of sex and a fear of contact with the opposite sex. I have no idea why this is because I am heterosexual. Even when I want to have a relationship with someone, I feel a tremendous amount of tension that blocks me terribly. I do not know what to do? Where to look for help - from a psychologist, psychiatrist, sexologist?

In this case, it is necessary to talk to a specialist, but everyone will treat it differently. The sexologist will check if this is caused by a sexual disorder related to, for example, psychosexual development. The psychologist will look at the personality and relationships with the world, and the psychiatrist will consider where the fear came from and whether it is not the cause of everything. Choose a doctor depending on what seems more likely to you. Or you can go to all three and only then make a decision, which seems more right for you, which you intuitively feel will help you. After such a short description without details, it is difficult to say anything. Take courage. Remember that these specialists talk about such things every day and you will not amaze them. don't be shy so just move - it's a waste of life (also sexual).

Remember that our expert's answer is informative and will not replace a visit to the doctor.
