It is also important to know that many women (probably at least 1/2 - 2/3rds) cannot have an orgasm with intercourse, they need more direct clitoral stimulation (digitally, orally, vibrator) to orgasm. Different positions may help but just more direct stimulation may help too. Often times taking the time for masturbation helps you understand what/where you find most pleasure and then you can direct your partner.
There are a number of medications that have negative sexual side effects and a couple of the most common are birth control pills and anti-depressants (SSRI/SNRI), reviewing your medication list with your doctor may help solve, or at least better understand your present situation. Certainly a big life stressor gets in the way of satisfying sex for women and there are no easy solutions for that, talking it over with your partner certainly is a good idea.
We also encourage women to engage more of their senses in the act of sex. Listen to some favorite music, use massage oils, light an aromatic candle. Adding little things can help a lot!
