Low sex drive, sexual arousal disorder, Hypoactive Sexual Desire Disorder (HSDD), or low libido, is a lack of interest in sex and intimate relationships. Both men and women might experience that. Although your change in sexual desire can occur at any age, both men and women may experience a decline in libido around age 40.
What causes a low sex drive in women?
Women experience a decrease in their sex drive around age 40 due to changes in estrogen hormone levels.
However, many women go through life with low libido or an inability to get aroused for many reasons. These conditions are known as hypoactive sexual desire disorder (HSDD) or inhibited sexual desire (ISD) and characterized by a lack or absence of desire for sexual activity or sexual fantasy.
What many women don’t realize is that these are common problems, and treatment is available to improve sexual desire and health.
What causes a sexual arousal disorder in men?
Like women, men experience a decrease in sex drive around age 40 due to changes in testosterone levels. If your low sex drive lasts three or more months, the experienced physicians at Balanced Medical Solutions recommend you schedule an evaluation. Your low libido may be a sign of an underlying health issue that shouldn’t be ignored, including medical conditions such as atherosclerosis or hormonal changes.
