&lt;h1&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #ff99cc;&quot;&gt;Low Libido (Low Sex Drive) in Men - Cause, Diagnosis, and Treatment&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h1&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;It is not uncommon for someone to lose interest in sex, but long-term low libido might be just the reason why, and having low testosterone, getting poor sleep, depression, stress, and substance use are the possible causes. If you are concerned that this might be your case, we highly recommend you &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;text-decoration: underline;&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.pulse-clinic.com/sexual-health-counseling&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;consult a professional&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt; near you.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;Low libido, or reduced sex drive, is a common issue affecting up to 1 in 5 men or individuals assigned male at birth (AMAB) and an even higher percentage of women or individuals assigned female at birth (AFAB) at some point. It&#39;s normal to experience fluctuations in sex drive multiple times throughout life. However, some conditions or lifestyle choices can contribute to decrease in sex drive.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h3&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;text-decoration: underline;&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.pulse-clinic.com/testosterone-levels-the-basics&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Low Testosterone&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400; color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;Testosterone is a crucial male hormone and is mostly produced in the testicles. It helps develop muscle and bone, stimulates sperm production, and influences sex drive.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;Normal testosterone levels fluctuate. However, according to the &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;text-decoration: underline;&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.auanet.org/guidelines/testosterone-deficiency-guideline&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;American Urological Association&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt; (AUA) guidelines, adult males are deemed to have low testosterone or low T if their levels dip below 300 nanograms per deciliter (ng/dL). Therefore, as testosterone levels decrease, so does sexual desire.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400; color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;If your testosterone is decreasing, it is a normal part of aging. However, a drastic testosterone drop is not normal, and your body might be signaling a health condition.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;text-decoration: underline;&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.pulse-clinic.com/testosterone-replacement-therapy&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Testosterone replacement therapy (TRT)&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt; is a method used to treat low testosterone, and testosterone injections are another option available for you.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h3&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #cc99ff;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Me&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;strong&gt;dications&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400; color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;Certain medications can reduce testosterone levels, potentially resulting in decreased libido. For example, blood pressure drugs like ACE inhibitors and beta-blockers might prevent erections and ejaculation.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400; color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;Other medications that can lower testosterone levels include:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot; aria-level=&quot;1&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400; color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;Chemotherapy or radiation for cancer&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;

&lt;li style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot; aria-level=&quot;1&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400; color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;Corticosteroids&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot; aria-level=&quot;1&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400; color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;Opioid pain meds (e.g., morphine, oxycodone)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot; aria-level=&quot;1&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400; color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;Antifungal medication called Ketoconazole&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot; aria-level=&quot;1&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400; color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;Cimetidine (Tagamet), is used to treat heartburn and GERD&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot; aria-level=&quot;1&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400; color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;Anabolic steroids, used by athletes to increase muscle mass&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot; aria-level=&quot;1&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400; color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;Specific antidepressants&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400; color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;If you are taking one or more of these medications and are experiencing the effects of low testosterone, you may need to consult a doctor for appropriate diagnosis and treatment.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h3&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #cc99ff;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Restless Legs Syndrome (RLS)&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;Restless legs syndrome (RLS) is a strong urge to move legs. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;text-decoration: underline;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://academic.oup.com/aje/article/177/10/1097/101065&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Research&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt; shows men with RLS have higher chances of &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;text-decoration: underline;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.pulse-clinic.com/erectile-dysfunction&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;erectile dysfunction&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt; (ED). Those with frequent RLS episodes, especially, are at greater risk of impotence.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h3&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #cc99ff;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Depression&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400; color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;Depression alters every aspect of life, diminishing or eliminating interest in previously enjoyable activities, including sex. Experiencing low libido is also a side effect of taking antidepressants, including:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot; aria-level=&quot;1&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400; color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;Serotonin-norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors (SNRIs), such as duloxetine (Cymbalta)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot; aria-level=&quot;1&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400; color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;Selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs), like fluoxetine (Prozac) and sertraline (Zoloft)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400; color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;However, bupropion (Wellbutrin SR, Wellbutrin XL), a norepinephrine and dopamine reuptake inhibitor (NRDI), has not demonstrated a decrease in libido.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400; color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;Consult your doctor if you are on antidepressants and experiencing low libido. They can manage side effects by adjusting their dosage or switching medications.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h3&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #cc99ff;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Chronic Illness&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400; color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;When dealing with the impact of a chronic health issue like chronic pain, sex often becomes less of a priority. Some conditions, like cancer, can also lower sperm production.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400; color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;Additional chronic conditions that may affect your sex drive include:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li aria-level=&quot;1&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;text-decoration: underline;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.pulse-clinic.com/diabetes&quot;&gt;Type 2 diabetes&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot; aria-level=&quot;1&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400; color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;Obesity&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot; aria-level=&quot;1&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400; color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;High blood pressure&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot; aria-level=&quot;1&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400; color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;High cholesterol&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot; aria-level=&quot;1&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400; color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;Chronic lung, heart, kidney, and liver failure&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400; color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;If you are dealing with a chronic illness, you should discuss intimacy options with your partner as well as seek support from a marriage counselor or a sex therapist that could be beneficial.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h3&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #cc99ff;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Sleeping Problems&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://jcsm.aasm.org/doi/10.5664/jcsm.6832&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;text-decoration: underline;&quot;&gt;Research&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400; color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt; published in the Journal of Clinical Sleep Medicine suggests that non-obese males suffering from obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) have reduced testosterone levels, resulting in diminished sexual activity and libido. The study also revealed that nearly one-third of men with severe sleep apnea experienced decreased testosterone levels.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h3&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #cc99ff;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Aging&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400; color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;Libido is typically highest in late teens when testosterone levels peak. As men age, reaching orgasm, ejaculation, and arousal might take longer. Erections may weaken, and arousal may be delayed. Medications can aid in addressing these concerns.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h3&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #cc99ff;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Stress&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;High-pressure situations or distractions can diminish sexual desire by disrupting hormone levels. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;text-decoration: underline;&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.pulse-clinic.com/stress-treatment-and-therapy&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Stress&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt; narrows arteries, reducing blood flow and potentially leading to erectile dysfunction (ED).&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;A &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;text-decoration: underline;&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.semanticscholar.org/paper/Psychological-impotence%3A-Psychological-erectile-and-Rajiah-Veettil/dcaed2b288bad2f6e8c008adc45b66e6ef2c32b7?p2df&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;study&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt; in Scientific Research and Essays backed the idea that stress directly impacts sexual issues in both genders. Avoiding stress is challenging. Relationship conflicts, divorce, the death of a loved one, financial concerns, new parenthood, or a demanding work setting are among the life events that significantly impact sexual desire.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400; color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;Methods for managing stress, like deep breathing, meditation, and therapy, could be beneficial.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;For instance, in a &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;text-decoration: underline;&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/and.12129&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;study&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;, men who were newly diagnosed with ED notably enhanced their erectile function scores following an 8-week stress management course.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h3&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #cc99ff;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Low Self-esteem&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400; color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;Low self-esteem, lacking confidence, and negative body image can negatively impact emotional health and well-being. If you are feeling unattractive or undesirable, it can dampen sexual experiences. Disliking your appearance in the mirror might even lead to avoiding sex entirely.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400; color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;Low self-esteem can trigger anxiety about sexual performance, potentially causing erectile dysfunction (ED) and diminished sexual desire. Over time, self-esteem issues may escalate into more significant mental health issues like depression, anxiety, and substance abuse &amp;mdash; all associated with reduced libido.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h3&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #cc99ff;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Alcohol &amp;amp; Drug Use&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400; color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;Excessive alcohol consumption, defined as over 14 mixed drinks per week, has been associated with reduced testosterone production, which can diminish sex drive over time. The Cleveland Clinic suggests that men who drink more than three or more alcoholic beverages regularly should consider drinking less.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400; color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;Apart from alcohol, the consumption of tobacco, marijuana, and illicit drugs like opiates has also been linked to decreased testosterone production, leading to a decrease in sexual desire. Moreover, smoking has been associated with adverse effects on sperm production and motility.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #ff99cc;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Side Effects of Low Libido&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400; color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;It can be very unsettling for men to experience a decreased sex drive. This condition can lead to a negative cycle of physical and emotional side effects, including ED &amp;mdash; the incapacity to sustain an erection for a sufficient duration to engage in satisfactory sexual activity.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400; color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;ED can cause a man anxiety around sex that can lead to serious tension between their partner getting less sexual encounters and more relationship problems. The inability to perform because of erectile dysfunction (ED) can evoke feelings of depression, low self-esteem, and negative body image.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400; color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;Treating low libido typically involves treating the root cause. If an underlying health condition is to blame, medication adjustment may be necessary. Alternatively, if psychological factors are at play, seeking therapy, possibly relationship counseling, could be beneficial for you.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt;In the meantime, you can try &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.pulse-clinic.com/natural-ways-to-increase-libido&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;text-decoration: underline;&quot;&gt;natural ways to increase libido&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: 400;&quot;&gt; to get a better result during your treatment from your doctor.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #ff99cc;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;How Will Doctors Diagnose Low Libido?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;Low libido is usually just one of many symptoms of other health conditions. Doctors might ask you for some medical history and run some tests based on your condition. You might have to get &lt;span style=&quot;text-decoration: underline;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.pulse-clinic.com/body-builder-lab-test&quot;&gt;some blood tests to check for testosterone levels&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt; in your body, or you might need to have a talk therapy with mental health professionals to help with the psychological cause of your low libido.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
