Dear team of the online consultation,
My name is Renata Schlittmaier and I am reaching out to you because I am very worried about my libido. For some time now, I have noticed that my sexual desire has significantly decreased. I used to be very passionate and lustful, but lately I have been lacking any desire for sexual activities. This not only burdens me, but also my partnership.
I have tried several things to increase my libido. I have tried to relax more, exercise regularly, and also changed my diet. Unfortunately, none of this has brought any improvement so far. I feel frustrated and wonder if there may be medical reasons for my problem.
I am concerned that hormonal changes or other health issues could be affecting my libido. Are there possible medical treatments or therapies that could help me increase my libido? Are there specific examinations that should be conducted to identify potential causes for my low sexual desire?
I would greatly appreciate your assessment and recommendations on how I can increase my libido again. Thank you in advance for your help.
Sincerely,
Renata Schlittmaier
Dear Renata Schlittmaier,
I understand that it can be very frustrating to suddenly notice a decrease in sexual desire, especially if you previously had a strong desire for sexual activities. It is important that you therefore seek advice from me as a gynecologist to investigate possible causes and discuss suitable treatment options.
There are various factors that can affect libido. Hormonal changes, such as a lack of estrogen or testosterone, may play a role. Psychological factors such as stress, depression, or relationship difficulties can also affect sexual desire. In addition, certain medications, conditions such as diabetes or thyroid problems, and lifestyle factors such as alcohol and drug consumption can negatively impact libido.
To identify possible causes for your low sexual desire, it is important to conduct a thorough history and physical examination. Laboratory tests such as hormone levels or a blood test may also be useful. Depending on the findings, further investigations such as an ultrasound examination of the genital organs or psychotherapy may be considered.
Regarding medical treatments or therapies, there are various options to increase libido. Depending on the cause, hormone replacement therapy may be considered to balance hormonal imbalances. Psychological counseling or couples therapy can also be helpful in addressing psychological factors. In addition, herbal supplements or medications such as Viagra may be used in some cases for support.
It is important not to hesitate to seek help and talk about your problems. Low libido is a common issue, and there are many treatment options available to increase your desire for sexual activities. Please schedule an appointment in my online consultation hours so that we can develop an individual treatment strategy together.
I am here to help and look forward to assisting you.
Best regards,
Sandra Siebert, Specialist in Gynecology and Obstetrics
