Men have a strong possessiveness, and for most men, it is impossible to experience a decrease in sexual desire. However, for some men, they often lack interest in sexual activity, which seriously affects the relationship between couples. What are the reasons for male decreased libido? Next, let the editor of the Men's Channel popularize this knowledge of sexual health care for everyone.
1. Nutrition: Nutrition is the material foundation of sexual activity. Malnutrition can cause amenorrhea in women. The research results indicate that the lack of important trace elements such as protein and zinc can lead to decreased sexual function. Adequate and complete nutrition, especially eating foods containing high-quality protein, multiple vitamins, and zinc, can maintain normal levels of sexual function. However, it should also be noted that overnutrition will lead to obesity, while severe obesity is prone to decreased libido.
2. Emotions: When a person is in a bad mood, their sexual desire is easily temporarily reduced, especially in severe states such as sadness, terror, indignation, sadness, depression, and despair. Sexual desire can be significantly affected and even completely lost. As negative emotions subside, sexual desire will also recover, but generally the recovery time is slower than the disappearance of negative emotions.
3. Addiction to smoking and alcohol: Women who drink excessively are prone to sexual dysfunction, reduced vaginal secretions, causing pain and lack of pleasure in sexual activity, thus leading to a decrease in sexual desire. But the effects of smoking and alcohol on sexual function are reversible, and most people's sexual function can gradually return to normal levels after quitting smoking and alcohol.
4. Medications: Long term or excessive use of certain medications can lead to decreased sexual function and even cause female sexual apathy. There are many types of drugs that affect sexual function. Among them, the main and common ones are: reserpine, Rauwolfu, propranolol, chlorpromazine, ibuprofen, and some anticancer drugs. After receiving radiation therapy for a long period of time, it can also lead to a decrease in sexual desire.
5. Living conditions: Living in a disorganized, poorly ventilated, and overcrowded environment can not only cause poor mood, but also lead to insufficient oxygen supply to the brain due to insufficient indoor fresh air, affecting sexual function and reducing libido. Especially for generations living in the same room or sleeping in the same bed with their children, it can cause invisible pressure and easily lead to decreased libido. When living conditions improve, this decline will quickly return to normal.
6. Age: This is an important factor affecting sexual desire. Women's sexual desire only reaches its peak at the age of 30-40 and gradually decreases after menopause. A considerable number of young women do not have strong demands for sexual life itself, and even lack initiative. This is not surprising, as their sexual desire needs to be awakened by their husbands.
7. Seasons and Temperatures: In winter and spring when the temperature is low, most people have strong sexual desire, especially in spring, which is known as the courtship season. However, in sweaty summer, sexual desire often temporarily weakens. Some women's sexual desire is closely related to their menstrual cycle, often increasing a few days before the onset of menstruation, while others become stronger around a week after the onset of menstruation.
8. Stimulation, inducements, and sexual history: Sexual desire is actually a conditioned reflex, and in addition to internal reasons, external stimuli are also important.
9. Emotion: The relationship between marital emotions and sexual desire is very close and quite subtle. This is not surprising, because unlike other animals, the generation of sexual desire is not simply a biological instinct, but is often triggered by love.
Therefore, there are obstacles in the relationship between couples, especially when it reaches the level of rupture, leading to mutual aversion and a decrease in sexual desire. Moreover, some couples may appear calm and never argue, but they may not trust each other and harbor mutual suspicion. This seemingly detached couple can also cause a decrease in sexual desire due to their bad mood. So, the harmony of sexual life between couples stems from the emotional harmony between them.
10. Health status: The impact of health status on sexual desire is both important and complex, as only physically and mentally healthy individuals may maintain normal sexual desire for the long term. However, there are indeed some patients with severe illnesses who maintain strong sexual desire just like healthy individuals. So, for this issue, different situations should be distinguished and analyzed specifically.
The above introduction is about the reasons for male decreased libido. There are many factors that can affect the sexual life of couples, but both parties must strive to overcome them and maintain a good attitude.
