Dr. Luo Yong
The primary causes of low libido in men fall into three categories:
1. **Underlying medical conditions**: Disorders such as endocrine imbalances or hypothyroidism—or conditions like erectile dysfunction—can significantly reduce libido. Men experiencing such symptoms should promptly consult a physician to evaluate potential hormonal abnormalities.
2. **Excessive psychological stress**: High levels of mental or emotional stress can negatively impact sexual desire, leading to diminished libido.
3. **Marital or relationship discord**: Frequent arguments and poor marital harmony may also contribute to loss of sexual interest.
