Decreased libido

What is decreased libido?

Decreased libido, or low sex drive, refers to a lower interest in sexual activity than is considered average. Both men and women can experience low libido for a variety of reasons, including:

• Hormonal changes - Fluctuations in testosterone, estrogen, and other hormones can affect sexual desire.


• Medical conditions - Conditions like diabetes, high blood pressure, and thyroid disorders can impact libido.


• Medications - Some prescription drugs, like antidepressants, can lower libido as a side effect.


• Psychological issues - Stress, depression, and problems in a relationship may diminish sex drive.


• Low energy - General fatigue, from lack of sleep or other lifestyle factors, can make people less interested in sex.

Some key signs of decreased libido include:

• Not having interest in sexual thoughts or activities


• Never or rarely initiating sex


• Finding it difficult to become aroused
