As men age, many suffer a decrease in sex drive. This isn’t as natural as you’d think; in a study conducted by the American Association of Retired Persons (AARP), men still on average feel as much sexual desire as they did in their middle age. There’s more at play here than simply getting older.
So, find out why you’re just not up for it like you used to be. There are many factors that could be to blame, both physical and emotional. Most cases of low libido are mental rather than physical. Stress is the number one cause behind a low libido – while sex is a great way to get your mind off of things, you’ve got to be ready for it in the first place. Any other negative feelings, like guilt or depression, can also be at work.
