Many experience a sharp decline in self-assurance; their masculinity feels compromised, and social interactions become daunting.

The struggle with self-worth can severely impact their ability to engage romantically, leading to feelings of hopelessness. 

We delve into essential discussions about relationships, intimacy, and self-esteem in the face of physical disabilities. Our experts offer valuable advice not only for those directly affected but also for healthcare professionals seeking guidance on addressing sexual health in the context of disability.
