I read all the time and different authors handle SEX differently. Laurell K. Hamilton and Christine Feehan use descriptive sex in their novels. James Patterson (I mostly read the Alex Cross series) uses it some, but it is done tastefully.

I leave out the steamy sex scenes, prefering to leave it up to my readers imagination. However, you can utilize the build up before in creating the mystery before your reader turns the page. This will help your reader to visualize what might be happening behind the scenes.
It is your decision to write what you are comfortable with, but remember sex sells. It always has and always will no matter how you choose to portray it. There are markets for all levels of sex, including the behind close doors variety.
