A healthy sex life can be incredibly elevating. But lately if you’ve been experiencing problems related to your sex life. Here are a few factors that could dampen your spirits.
A stalled libido could be due to a number of physical, emotional and psychological reasons ranging from conflicts with your partner, stress, depression, refraining from intimacy for a long time, grooming related issues, physical problems or simply not keeping well.
Fatigue and sleep deprivation: If you’ve been sleeping six hours or less than that, you are bound to experience low sex drive. According to sleep experts, chronic sleep deprivation which occurs even if you sleep for six hours a night can lower the levels of testosterone (a sex drive hormone in both men as well as women).
Snoring: As funny as it may sound, but if your partner snores loudly not only will it disturb your sleep but will also lower his/her sex drive. Sleep apnea is a condition that causes abnormal breathing throughout the night and not only does it lead to lack of sleep, weight gain and can affect your sex life. Consult your doctor to treat this problem.
Stress and depression: Constant stress and worry resulting from pressure at work or otherwise can wane your sex drive.
