Low Libido (Passion Fatigue)
What is Low Libido?
Men may find they are no longer interested in sexual activity with their partner. This may result in difficulty maintaining an erection. Sometimes difficulties with erections leads to a loss of libido, as it is easier to avoid intimate situations. Such men notice a return of interest when their erectile dysfunction is treated. Certain medications, recreational drugs or alcohol abuse alter libido. Occasionally the loss of interest results from hormonal changes. The underlying issues usually become apparent during a consultation and appropriate treatment can be offered. Counselling or sexual therapy for couples is often helpful.
