What is a decrease in libido? What are the diseases that cause decreased libido? Anything that affects normal hormone levels, blood circulation, and nerve impulses may cause a decrease in libido. Common ones include:
1. Hyperthyroidism
Annie was diagnosed with this endocrine disease, which is the opposite of Zulinde's hypothyroidism - the thyroid gland secretes too much thyroid hormone. The doctor carefully told her that the disease would cause her to experience many symptoms such as excessive sweating, weight loss and fatigue, unstable emotions, insomnia and restlessness, and shortness of heart and breath after activity. But Anne also had a clear feeling, but shy of speaking up, that her sexual interest had significantly decreased. And this is precisely what the doctor did not mention.
Actually, this is also one of the complications of hyperthyroidism. There is data indicating that in patients with hyperthyroidism, 10% to 20% have excessive libido, generally mild hyperthyroidism patients; 30% to 40% experience decreased libido.
Hyperthyroidism occurs in women, often resulting in menstrual disorders, decreased menstrual blood volume, and even amenorrhea. The menstrual cycle is prolonged, shortened, or becomes irregular. If it occurs in males, there is a possibility of erectile dysfunction.
2. Diabetes
Fang Fang has been plagued by external genital itching for a long time, which she considers to be a common * * disease. But after checking the blood sugar, the doctor came up with a surprising result - diabetes. The increase in blood sugar causes the sugar content in the * * mucosa to exceed normal values, which is a suitable environment for mold growth and causes itching.
If men unfortunately suffer from diabetes, erectile dysfunction accounts for 40%~60%.
3. Genital diseases
For example, inflammation can cause pain, thereby reducing sexual pleasure. If diagnosed with this type of disease, doctors generally recommend using drugs such as dactyline suppositories to treat inflammation. After the disease is treated and improved, sexual desire will return to its previous level.
