And it\u2019s not just the economy that took the hit. Many couples are still experiencing the aftermath of the pandemic years in their bedrooms and searching for solutions to get their <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">sexual relationships<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> back on track.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3>The Pandemic\u2019s Effects on Couples<\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For some couples, the lockdowns were a blessing in disguise. Finally, some quality time together! Even if it consisted of simple pleasures, such as walks in the park and kitchen experiments, this was the chance to bond and focus on what really mattered. According to a <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.tandfonline.com\/doi\/abs\/10.1080\/14616696.2020.1836385?journalCode=reus20\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">German study on the pandemic and relationships<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, 20 percent of couples reported positive changes in their relationships.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">While the lucky few made the most of the extra time under one roof, for many, the <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">effect of COVID on relationships <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">was not as rosy. The pandemic caused job insecurity, killed businesses big and small, and put huge pressures on families. All this translated into more daily stress and <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cnbc.com\/2022\/01\/21\/covid-has-put-pressures-and-strains-on-relationships.html\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">arguments between partners and spouses<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A happy relationship starts with two happy individuals.

The never-ending demands of remote work, homeschooling and having the kids home all the time, the lack of social connections, and dealing with mortality were reflected in our bedrooms. Even today, when many of us have forgotten the obligatory face masks, some sexual relationships still haven\u2019t recovered.\u00a0<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.edrugstore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/2.jpeg-1.jpg\"><br \/>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Check if any of these applies to your own intimate relationship:<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.edrugstore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/2.jpeg-1.jpg\"><br \/>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Lost libido. <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you or your partner lost interest in sex during the pandemic, you\u2019re not alone.
