Question : My wife ( Age =33 Years ) has Stopped sexual life for more than a year. Will it affect the thyroid level ?
Brief Answer:
thyroid level affects sex life but reverse is not possible
Detailed Answer:
Hello Mr. XXXXXXX
Thanks for writing to us.
Hypothyroidism(low thyroid level) is one of the causes of low libido. Probably that is the reason your wife has no interest in sex.But with treatment this thing can improve.
However stopping the sex life does not affect thyroid level at all. No need to worry.
Hope I have answered your query, I will be happy to help further.
