My advice is to just do it. You don't have to show it to anyone ever, you can even delete it immediately when you're done. You're embarrassed because it's tricky to get yourself past those ingrained inhibitions the first few times. But the more you do it, the easier it gets. And when it gets a little easier, you can start to have fun with it, and when you're having fun with it your readers probably will too.

There's no rational reason why sex should be more inherently difficult to write than anything else the characters do. Some writers struggle with dialogue. Others have trouble with battle and action scenes. The answer to all of that is practice, practice, practice! And study writers who do it well, with an eye to figuring out how they do it so well. Pacing, word choice, what they emphasize, what they de-emphasize or leave out, etc.
