What Causes Low Sex Drive In Women?

My wife went through the change several years ago. The last time we had sex she said to my face she never wanted sex again. With me or anybody? We haven had sex in 15 years and she won t talk about it. I feel abandoned. Now at 62 I am diabetic and some heart trouble. I don t tell my wife about my ed for fear she will laugh and make fun of me. What should I do? Is there anything I can do?

Hello,

Low sex hormones in females after their menopause is the main culprit in your case. Estrogen falls after menopause in females and also too much alcohol and cigarettes over an extended period of time can also lead to low sex drive. To overcome low sex drive and regain a healthy relationship with your partner, you must look into the major reasons for low sex drive and how they're affecting you. While it's normal to feel a lack of desire for sex at times, you should seek help if the issue starts to concern you.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Sameen Bin Naeem, General & Family Physician
