Brief Answer:
Some investigations are needed.

Detailed Answer:
Thanks for writing your query.
Decrease in libido can be due to many causes. It can be due to some medicines or some underlying disease.
I would suggest some investigations like:-
1. Thyroid profile.
2. Blood sugar levels.
3. Lipid profile.
4. Testosterone levels.
You should not feel guilty. You should rather discuss your condition with your wife as she may be of help in curing your symptoms.
An opinion from a psychiatrist may also be helpful.
I hope this is helpful to you. If you have any further query, I will be happy to help. Thanks
