Hi Nitin,
It is unlikely that your symptoms have anything to do with Creatine. Creatine can cause stomach pain, nausea, diarrhea, and muscle cramping. In large doses, it might be associated with weight gain as well. But it is not known to cause decreased libido. We should be looking at mainly psychological causes for this. Please speak with a psychologist in this regards
Hope this helps
