Sexual Weakness Treatment

Sexual Weakness

What causes sexual weakness?

Many causes have been identified as contributing to the diminishment of sexual desire. They include:

• Medications (SSRIs, anti-androgens, 5-alpha-reductase inhibitors, opioid analgesics)
• Alcoholism
• Depression
• Fatigue
• Hypoactive sexual disorder
• Recreational drugs
• Relationship problems
• Other sexual dysfunction (fear of humiliation)
• Sexual aversion disorder
• Systemic illness
• Testosterone deficiency
• Stress
• Lack of time
• History of sexual abuse
• Hormonal problems such as hyperthyroidism

What are the symptoms of sexual weakness?

The person that lacks sexual desire won't want to initiate the sexual relationship. If the action is initiated, sexual weakness can also present itself as the inability to attain an erection. If the patient experiences a first episode of erectile dysfunction without any previous sexual symptoms and adequate nocturnal erection, the cause is probably psychogenic and the problem is not the erection. It is also important to specify if the sexual weakness is new in onset or if one has always felt this way about sexual relations.
