Invisible assassin of low sexual desire in men? What are the methods for men to increase their libido

Sexual activity not only maintains a harmonious marriage, but also greatly contributes to health. But many men are prone to the dilemma of low libido after marriage. The causes of male low libido are complex, and all severe systemic diseases, chronic diseases, and excessive fatigue can reduce sexual excitement and lead to low libido. Below is a specific introduction to the reasons and countermeasures for men's low libido.

How many invisible killers do you know about men with low libido?

1. Low androgen levels

Androgens not only maintain male reproductive function and secondary sexual characteristics, but also enhance the excitability of the cortical sex center, stimulate sexual desire, and generate sexual responses. Low levels of androgens can directly lead to decreased male libido, sometimes accompanied by erectile dysfunction. For such patients, we need to conduct corresponding sex hormone measurements and, if necessary, provide androgen replacement therapy to restore normal sexual activity.

2. Medications

Various drugs are directly related to low libido, such as antipsychotic drugs, antihypertensive drugs (reserpine, propranolol, etc.), hormonal drugs (estrogen, antiandrogenic drugs), etc. If necessary, communicate with relevant specialists to adjust the type and dosage of drugs.

3. High mental and psychological pressure

Modern life has a fast pace, intense competition, high work pressure, and complex interpersonal relationships, which cause extreme psychological pressure on adult men, especially for those with fragile and tense psychological qualities, resulting in a psychological disorder state of anxiety and depression, which repeatedly exists, interfering with the function of the cerebral cortex and leading to low libido. For such patients, we need to provide more mental care and emphasize the positive role of female spouses in treatment.

4. Personal lifestyle habits

Long term alcoholism can lead to chronic liver poisoning, causing an increase in estrogen levels in the blood and a decrease in androgen levels, leading to decreased libido. In addition, insufficient sleep, malnutrition, etc. may also lead to low libido. Improving bad habits can lead to improvements.

5. An overly refined staple food

Eating too much pasta and other refined carbohydrates can quickly increase blood sugar, leading to an increase in estrogen and a decrease in testosterone, thereby weakening sexual desire.
