Low Libido
Low libido refers to a reduced interest in sexual activity or a noticeable decline in sexual desire. While sexual desire naturally varies from person to person and can change throughout life, a persistent decrease in libido may affect confidence, relationships, emotional well-being, and overall quality of life.
Experiencing a temporary drop in sexual desire is common and can be influenced by stress, lifestyle changes, health conditions, or relationship challenges. However, if low libido becomes ongoing or distressing, it may be worth exploring the underlying factors.
