MALE LOW LIBIDO | LOW SEX DRIVE  

About Male Low Libido ( Low Sex Drive ) and Free On-line Questionnaire

Low libido is also referred to as having: no libido / no sex drive / low or no interest in sex / no or low sexual desire. The condition can be more disturbing for some men, than other sexual issues due to a societal expectation that men are ‘always up for it’ and the view that men have this uncontrollable desire for sex. On the other hand, many men may not be concerned about the issue at all but their partners may be. For some, the lack of sexual desire may be interpreted as their partner not being interested in them. This can cause relationship issues and a deep sense of resentment particularly as some people see sexual engagement as a way of illustrating love. Note that a lack of libido should not be confused with erectile dysfunction.

Male Low libido may be categorised as either:

  • Lifelong – the individual has never been interested in engaging in sexual experiences

  • Acquired - interest in sex has existed in the past but it has now reduced (current relationship issues, family-of-origin belief systems and values, previous conditioning, personal expectations, attitudes towards sexuality or past traumatic events)

  • Situational – interest in sex presents on some occasions and with some partners but not in others

  • Generalised – the person has no interest in sex in all situations, thus has a low sex drive in general.

There are many contributing factors that are known to either cause and / or maintain the dysfunction such as:

Some medications
Alcohol
The use of illicit drugs
Aging – increases with age
Obesity
Low testosterone levels
Some major illnesses such as diabetes
Depression
Stress / anxiety
Pressure / overload from work or home
Relationship issues
General life dissatisfaction
Fatigue
And a range of other emotional / psychological issues
