For men, sex is indispensable, a gas station in their lives, and an important source of joy in their lives. However, many men have a significant decrease in their sexual desire due to various factors. So, what are the factors that affect men's sexual desire?
In medicine, we generally follow a standard for judging male hypolibido, which is that adult males experience a lack of sexual interest or lack of sexual requirements for at least three consecutive months. In fact, the requirements of normal men for sexual life vary from person to person, and there are great differences. Just like drinking wine, a good drinker can drink 1 jin of Baijiu, and a poor drinker can drink 1 liang of wine, which may lead to a loss of drinking power. Therefore, whether the sexual desire is reduced can only be compared with himself, not with others horizontally. There are many factors that affect male sexuality, the most common of which are the following.
Certain organic diseases. The occurrence of decreased libido should first be ruled out in a regular hospital for some organic diseases. It is possible to investigate reproductive hormones, including androgens and prolactins, to rule out diseases such as hypogonadism, microcystis, hyperprolactinemia, and hypopituitarism. In addition, there are some diseases that can cause decreased libido, such as liver cirrhosis, tuberculosis, and reproductive system tumors.
Some drugs may cause decreased libido. Such as cold medicines (containing diphenhydramine, pseudoephedrine, etc.), sedatives (such as barbital, etc.), hypnotics (such as diazepam, etc.), and antihypertensive drugs (reducing heart rate and blood flow, which may affect the blood supply of sexual organs).
