Understanding Low Libido: Causes, Effects & Treatment
A healthy sex drive is an important part of overall well-being and intimate relationships. When you notice a decline in libido (sexual desire), it can feel concerning or even frustrating. At Evolve Medical, we help patients identify the underlying causes and create personalized treatment plans to restore vitality and confidence.
What is Low Libido?
Low libido, or reduced sexual desire, refers to a persistent lack of interest in sexual activity. It’s normal for sexual desire to fluctuate with age, stress, or lifestyle, but ongoing loss of interest may point to a medical or psychological condition.
Common Causes of Low Libido
There are many factors that can influence sexual desire, including:
-
Hormonal changes – Low testosterone, thyroid imbalances, or estrogen decline.
-
Stress and fatigue – Work, family responsibilities, or chronic stress can lower sexual energy.
-
Medications – Certain antidepressants, blood pressure drugs, or birth control methods may impact libido.
-
Mental health factors – Depression, anxiety, or unresolved relationship issues.
-
Lifestyle choices – Poor sleep, lack of exercise, smoking, and excessive alcohol consumption.
Symptoms & Effects
Low libido may present as:
-
Little or no interest in sexual activity
-
Reduced arousal response
-
Frustration in intimate relationships
-
Decreased overall sense of vitality and well-being
Why It Matters
A decline in libido isn’t just about intimacy—it can be a sign of broader health concerns like hormone imbalance, mental health issues, or chronic illness. Addressing the root cause is key to restoring both physical and emotional wellness.
