Hi @shashana11 that must be so frustrating to lack the desire in order to have the active sex life you and your wife want. I'd like to share this article from Mayo Clinic that discusses some causes of low libido: https://mayoclinichealthsystem.org/hometown-health/speaking-of-health/lets-talk-low-libido

I also would like to share this thread that discusses the difference between libido and erectile dysfunction as you may be able to find some helpful information: https://connect.mayoclinic.org/discussion/ed-versus-libido/

@shashana11

I am really interested to know if there are any legitimate, Male Enhancement/Libido raising/ supplements on the market?? There are literally thousands of them I noticed, and I imagine most are worthless and a waste of money .I am a 70 year old man, pretty healthy. I also had a urologist check me out recently, and was told my testosterone levels were pretty good for my age ,and that my prostate was SLIGHTLY enlarged, but nothing of concern right now. So I don`t know what the problem is . I have very low desire, ,but use Viagra or Cialis for help to get and maintain an erection. They DO work , when I use them, but the " horniness or desire" is actually not there normally until my wife initiates intimacy, and slowly coaxes me to take a pill, and then gets me to the point of erection after a while. We would BOTH like to have a more active sex life............. it`s come down to maybe once a a month....IF lucky. All her doing BTW. Am really frustrated ............please help ??

Hi there,
Some medications including Antidepressants, some Seizure meds Antacids, Diuretics, various heart medications can lower libido or cause ED as can the aging process and certain medical conditions like Diabetes, Heart Disease, Stress, anxiety and a major cause is Depression. Emotional and relationship issues also cause libido problems. Libido problems unfortunately cant always be fixed.
I hope you get the help you need,
Jake

Thank you for your reply Leonard. FORTUNATELY I have NONE of those conditions or diseases. I am not depressed. ( Not that I know of.Have no reason to be. Have a beautiful wife I love dearly, a great , stress free life. (retired), no money problems. good health, great family ) I don`t smoke. ( never have ) I don`t drink , except for an occasional glass of wine or two socially. I also do not take ONE single pill for anything, other than a VERY occasional Motrin for VERY rare headaches. I am basically healthy as an ox except for the low libido problem. When I take a Viagra, or Cialis, they DO help, however the desire that was as an 18 year old is way gone.... lol. Maybe that`s considered normal for most men. I don`t know. Just looking for something that may just kickstart the "horniness" into gear when needed. Hoping to find an answer soon.
