Causes of Low Libido in Men - Reduced Sex Desire in Male

Low libido (sex desire) now a days is very common, whether in male or female. According to a study of an American agency, 39 % of male (above 30 years old) experience diminished sex desire. We are here to spot a light on various reason of low libido in male.

There are several factors which can affect the sexual potency of a male. Sometimes that may be medicinal, sometimes emotional and sometimes environmental.

Medicinal Factors

1. Testosterone is the hormone, which is responsible for creating lovemaking desire in male. So, a falling level of testosterone, no matter whatever the cause is results in a low libido in male.
2. Though it seems that drinking of alcoholic beverages enhances libido but the consequence prolonged intake of alcoholic beverages is always a low libido.
3. Excessive smoking of tobacco can also decrease sex desire.
4. Going under some kind of medication can also result in low libido. Prolonged exposure to mood stabilizers, tranquilizers, and blood pressure controlling pills results in a low libido in male.
5. There are some sex diseases which can make a person unable to make sex. Erectile dysfunction, premature ejaculation, curved penis are falls into this category.
6. Recurring pain from any diseases (may be sex related or not) makes a person unable to even think of lovemaking.
7. Physical weakness due to some reason or other can also play negative role.
8. Past sexual abuse sometimes could be the cause of low libido.
9. Addiction to drugs like Heroine, Marijuana and Brown sugar makes a man completely impotent in some cases.

Emotional Factors

1. Emotional factors play a big role in love-making as in the process two bodies and soul intermingled with each other. So, one can witness a low sex desire due to some emotional issues coming in between the couple.
2. Sometimes there is a sexual orientation conflict between the couple comes in between as a wall in their sexual life.
3. Unresolved relationship and unfaithful activities of the female partner can also refrain man from lovemaking.
4. Excessive anger also lowers the desire to have sex.
5. Stress, fear and anxiety are three things which have the potency to decrease the libido by a substantial amount.

Environmental Factors

1. Environmental factors are the culprit in most cases of diminished sex desire.
2. Excessive workload in the work place is enough to steal the vital energy from a person, results in low libido.
3. The commitment and duty of a person to his new born baby often draws less attention towards sex as before.
4. Eating habit can also be a culprit. Eating spicy and oily foods can diminish one's sex desire.
5. Ongoing family tension often pressurizes a man so heavily that he has less time and may be no time to think about sex.
6. In some conservative countries where sex is seen as a mean activity, does not allow a person to make sex when ever and wherever he wants.
7. Aging plays a vital role also. As the age progresses the sex desire diminishes naturally.
8. A person deprive of sleep is very less likely to get attracted towards sex.

Sex Tips to Hide Your Virginity

No matter how confident a person you may be, having sex for the first
time is a scary prospect for pretty much anyone. It's like climbing into
a car for the first time and being told to just start driving -- a lot of things
could go wrong, but you don't really understand what they are until you start
going.

There are a lot of things to worry about on your first time. You want
to choose the right person. You're nervous about taking the risk of
actually suggesting that you HAVE sex. (How embarrassing will it be if the other
person doesn't want to?)

And then there's the risk that, well, you'll be lousy in bed.

I received an email recently from a visitor to my website www.FirstTimeSecrets.com [http://www.firsttimesecrets.com]
asking the following question that really tugged at my heartstrings:

Dear Samantha,

Do you have any sex tips that will hide my virginity? I don't want her to 

know it's my first time.

Thanks,
John

I think John's question is one that a lot of people have before their first
time. Nobody wants to look like a beginner -- fumbling around
with zippers, saying the wrong thing, touching your lover the wrong way, making
the whole experience awkward and uncomfortable.

No way! You want to be smooth and confident. You want to hit that perfect mix
where you're kind of taking charge, but kind of just letting the whole experience
happen. Zen sex, you might call it.

So without further ado, here are my top five sex tips for someone who
wants to hide their virginity:

1. Talk. If you can communicate with someone, you can have
good sex with them. If you can't, forget it -- the sex just isn't going to be
good.

For good sex, you'll need to be able to tell the other person how you're feeling,
what you want, what you don't want. Imagine if you couldn't!

Sadly, this is often the case -- we're afraid to talk, so we suffer through 

sex that just doesn't feel good. My advice? Do whatever you have to do so you
feel comfortable with the other person first. I don't want to sound old-fashioned
here, but dating is a pretty good place to start. 

Often we're so wrapped up in our own thoughts that we forget to think about 

the other person. Don't make that mistake -- it will make you a bad lover, trust
me. Think about them and their needs -- and maybe they'll do the same for you.

2. Consider telling the truth. If you want to hide your virginity,
you're starting your sex life based on a lie. Lies tend to kill intimacy and
make things difficult.

How bad would it be if she knew the truth about you? Or to put it another way...
how would you feel if you found out later that it was HER first time and she
lied to you about it?

People like it when you have the courage to tell them the truth, even if you're
embarrassed about it. Sharing something like this about yourself can bring you
closer together -- and that's what you're looking for, right?

3. Ask questions. One of the biggest mistakes a lot of people 

make early in their sex lives is to assume that being a good lover is all about
THEM. Here's a tip: good lovers don't put on a big show -- they pay a lot of
attention to THEIR lovers.

If you're worried about looking like a beginner, the worst thing you can do
is to try strutting into the bedroom and putting on a big show of how confident
you are. Trust me: try that and you'll look like a fool.

Instead, be a considerate lover. Try asking a few questions. Here are a few
to get you started:

• Are you comfortable?


• Is there anything you want to talk about before we do this?


• Are you nervous about anything?


• Can you show me how you want to be touched?
• 
  

4. Take turns. This is a great game to play, whether you're
experienced or not. Suggest to your lover that you take turns inviting each
other to try something sexual -- she goes first.

Both of you have the right to refuse any invitation at any time. If she turns
you down for something, don't take it personally! She's just taught you something
about what she likes and doesn't like. Pay attention to these signals, because
this is how you'll progress from lousy lover to great lover!

To keep things safe and comfy for both of you, you should only do things you're
comfortable and happy doing... and see where it leads!

For example, she might invite you to kiss her neck. Then you invite her to
run her fingers slowly up your spine. This is sexy, it's fun, and it's relaxing.
Sometimes it leads to sex, sometimes not -- just go with it, be respectful,
and enjoy!

This game can also be a great way to relax together and establish your boundaries.
It doesn't have to lead to full-on sex, or even to anything particularly heavy
-- it can be just as much fun with your clothes on.

5. Get skills. Yes, having sex is an instinct -- but have
you ever watched the Discovery Channel? Well, those animals are having sex by
instinct -- and generally, it ain't pretty.

If you want to be a good lover and have sex that's safe, comfortable, and totally
hot for both of you, there are two ways to do it.

The first way is to jump in, try doing it, and have awkward, weird sex until
you figure out how to do it right. That's how most people do it, and it's really
a shame.

The second way is to get some skills! The more you know about how to touch
your lover's body and handle different sexual situations, the more fun it's
going to be for both of you. Shameless plug: My Guide
to Losing Your Virginity is a good place to start -- it's an instruction
manual that takes the guesswork out of having sex. you can pick up a copy on
my site and try it risk-free.

In the end, why lie and hide the fact that it's your first time? Instead of
trying to fool her, try to wow her -- by being the best lover you can be. If
you can do that, everything else will fall into place.

Heart Disease and Sex

There is a lot of speculation among heart patients whether sex is advisable. Having a heart attack or undergoing a heart surgery is not the end of the world, let alone to a satisfying sex life. In fact resuming sex can make one feel secure and happy. The only thing one has to do is to check with the doctor for some guidelines.

To dispel the fear of having another heart attack during intercourse, an interesting study was carried out in the US. ECG electrodes were attached to many patients who suffered heart attacks.
The ECG was recorded throughout the day, including during the period of intercourse. The study revealed that at the time of orgasm, the heart rate went up to 120 beats per minute and after 2 minutes it came down to less than 100 beats per minute. More than 80 percent of patients did not have a problem in having sex.

How long to wait?

How long should one wait after a heart attack or bypass surgery? It is difficult to give a general answer to this question because each one has to be evaluated individually.
On an average, it takes about 6-8 weeks for healing. This period is the minimum recommended time for staying away from sex with one's partner. A stress test is done a couple of months after a heart attack, to give a fair idea of the recovery of the heart and how much stress it can bear.
But it is safe to say that you can have sex again when you can resume your other daily activities. If you can walk up two flights of stairs without any discomfort you are probably ready to have sex again. This can be substantiated by a stress (Treadmill) test to give you reassurance.

Medicines

Many medicines given to heart patients like heparin, tranquillizers, anti-hypertensive and antidepressants can take away one's interest in sex. If such a thing happens and you wish to resume sex, discuss the subject with your doctor. He will help you to lower the dosage of the medication.

Coupling with angina

There are some people who have never suffered a heart attack but have the problem of angina (chest pain due to heart disease). How safe is it for them to indulge in sex? In such situation, the evaluation has to be done by a physician/cardiologist.
A stress test is recommended, as there is a likelihood of having anginal chest pain during sexual activity. The patient should keep his tablets close by and can take if he/she develops a chest pain.

Safety tips

• Take it easy: After a heart attack or surgery, the first time you have sex, be careful and do not attempt intercourse. If there is no chest pain and breathlessness for a couple of days, you can proceed.


• Avoid sex when tired: Many men will find that the best time to have sex is first thing in the morning. Alternatively, have a short nap and they try having sex.


• Have sex in familiar surroundings like your own bedroom.


• Keep the room temperature comfortable.


• Do not have sex immediately after meals as it puts additional strain on the heart. You should wait for at least 2-3 hours before having sex.


• Do not drink alcohol as it might stimulate the heart.


• Use positions which are comfortable and you have no trouble breathing. If you develop breathlessness, rapid heartbeat, a feeling of extreme fatigue, giddiness, irregular heartbeat or chest pain, consult your doctor the next morning.


• Avoid sex with someone other than your regular partner or spouse. It makes extra risks.


• There are no standard rules even after clearance by your doctor and after taking proper medicines. If you are not comfortable with the sex act for any reason, which may even, be psychological, avoid it.

Sex is not all
In spite of the doctor's reassurance some couples may not be able to overcome their fears and resume sex. 
It is important to remember that expressions of sex can range from the pleasure of being near someone, to touching and holding, to embracing, caressing and that satisfaction comes not just from sexual intercourse.

For Men Only: 3 Tips for Great SEX

Sure, sure sure - you already know everything there is to know about how to have great sex. Are you really sure about that? Well keep an open mind and see if you learn anything new. Believe it or not, great sex is incredibly subjective and might not be what you think it is for your partner.

I have yet to meet a man who hasn't thought - or told me - that they are the next best thing since slice bread when it comes to making love. Interestingly enough, I often hear a very different story from their partner - but I will leave that subject for another day. The point of the story however; is these men are not lying, they actually believe what they are thinking or saying is true. The problem here is that great sex for you might not be considered great sex for someone else.

Why? Because great sex is truly in the eye of the of the beholder. Some men think they are Casanova because they can "last" for over 5 minutes or they bring their partner to multiple orgasms (which, hey, I must admit is not a bad thing). But the key to having great sex with your partner is knowing what exactly your partner wants, needs and likes. And it might be very different than what you believe is great sex and what you think they want, need and like.

Great Sex Tip # 1: Use your mouth - not only for kissing and other forms of sexual arousal but for communication!! That's right guys - ask your partner what they want and like - be open and try not to have preconceived notions of what you think you know about your partner's sexual preferences. You might be very surprised to hear the information your partner shares with you about her sexual pleasures.

Great Sex Tip # 2: Remember your sex life has nothing to do with porn sex. Do not make the mistake of thinking great sex with your partner is going to be "life imitating art". In other words, "Debbie Does Dallas" does not have anything at all to do with great sex in your relationship. Zip, Zero, Nada, Nothing!! So don't think great sex has to look anything like an x-rated movie.

Great Sex Tip # 3: Do not believe all the "locker room" talk you hear about the subject of sex. Research shows most men think their sex life is missing something that everyone else's has and/or that other men are having more frequent and more passionate and crazy sex! Guys - you tend to over-exaggerate (if not downright lie about) your sexual lives to other men. Do not believe what I call the "locker room" talk about sex most men engage in. They belong to the category of stories told that start with: "You should have seen the size of the fish that got away". Got it? So don't believe all this locker room talk and definitely do not compare your sex life to these fictitious stories. Every other couple besides you is not living on the "Love Boat" - having frequent and explosive sex all the time. This is just not true.

So ladies, pass this article on to the one you love. These guys might not admit it, but my bet is they might feel a little relieved to get this information. After all, if we are honest with ourselves, nobody really wants to believe anybody is having any better, or more frequent sex than everybody else.

So hopefully this article will take some pressure off all the couples out there who are not having sex swinging from the chandelier.

Hidden Health Benefits Of Sex

I do not recommend sex before marriage (sorry for that) but I believe sex if used in a good way is quite beneficial for health. If you think sex is just for pleasure or a gesture of love, think it again. Benefits of sex extend far beyond the bedroom. Do you know sex is a form of both mental and physical exercise? As you read this you will find out more health benefits of sex than you have ever known.

This may surprise some people, but it is true, there are several proven health benefits of sex and doctors also recommend having sex at least thrice a week.

Sex reduces stress:
Sex relieves stress as it reduces blood pressure. Research shows us that people who are active in sex respond well to stress and are less nervous when given what is thought difficult tasks such as speaking in public. They show better results than those who are less involved in sexual intercourse.

Improves cardiovascular health:
There are some old believes saying that the tiresome efforts during intercourse can result in a heart stroke. But this is not true; it is found that frequent sex is not associated with stroke. Instead, regular sexual intercourse reduces the risk of fatal heart attacks. So, next time you feel aroused, give it a warm hearty welcome.

Sex heals pain:
Studies show that various pains such as headache, arthritis pain or PMS symptoms begin to improve well after having sex. This is because of the oxytocin hormones released during sex increases endorphins which in turn decline pains.

Strengthens pelvic floor muscles:
Here is another reason to thank sex. Women doing some 'kegel' or pelvic floor muscle exercises during sex can have the benefits of minimizing the risk of incontinence as it strengthens the area. It also gives you more pleasure.

Immunity booster:
Regular and normal sex of at least twice a week has been linked with good levels of antibodies called immunoglobulin A or IgA. These antibodies protect you various health problems like colds and infections.

Burns calories:
It is believed that some 20 to 30 minutes of sex can burn more than 85 calories. Assuming this, we can say that sex is a good form of physical exercise.

Protects from prostate cancer risk:
Studies showed that frequent ejaculations of about five or more times a week in men who are in their 20s are less exposed to prostate cancer in their later lives than those having less or no ejaculations.

Sex is also better than taking sleeping peels as it helps you sleep better naturally. According to researchers, the oxytocin released during orgasm promotes better sleeps. As mentioned above it is also a good form of mental exercise as it boosts self-esteem to make us feel good and proud of ourselves.

The oxytocin released during orgasm is also called love hormones. As the level increases it helps us bond and build love with a feeling of generosity.

For women, there is also a reason to rejoice. The next time you have your periods; do not be afraid of any side effects. Some people in the past believe that sexual intercourse during menstrual periods can have negative effects to one's health. But, doctors have proved that sex during periods is safe and enjoyable as long as adequate precautions are taken.

The Culprits of Sex Addiction

The Society for the Advancement of Sexual Health estimated that about 3% - 5% of the United States population is suffering from sexual addiction or sexual compulsivity. That's 15 million to 18 million Americans out of control with sex. And this is only a conservative estimate based on individuals who seek treatment. The number of people struggling with sexual addiction is growing at frightening rates with the availability of Internet pornography. No longer does the sex addict have to risk discovery by buying pornography in public. Today, a sexual fix is just a few clicks away. Sexual addiction has existed back as far as we have recorded history. However, our more modern understanding of this problem has developed only in the last two to three decades as huge number of lives and families have been affected by this addiction. Sexual addiction is a reality happening now in our society. The sex addict could be a co-worker, a friend, a partner, or a loved one that carries their dependency alone and in secret, hiding the shame, guilt, and fear of rejection in a lonely and isolated emotional existence. But, who or what is to be blamed for this rampantly growing social problem? Or do we just normalize sexual addiction as one of the inevitable issues that occur naturally in a man's life? Let us examine the possible culprits.

The sex addict

Yes, some would blame the sex addict for his own addiction. Certainly he is responsible for his own behavior, but did he raise his hand one day and say "Sign me up for a sex addiction!" Not very likely. A sex addict is one who has lost the ability to control his or her sexual behaviors and instead indulges sexual fantasies and a near constant search for a sexual "fix." He often seems powerless to resist the obsession even to the point of destroying his or her life, marriages, and other relationships. Sex addicts have little comprehension of the risks they take. Patrick Carnes, in his study about sexual addiction, found that sex addicts don't necessarily enjoy sex. Contrary to enjoying sex as a self affirming source of physical pleasure, the addict has learned to rely on sex for comfort from pain and for nurturing or relief from stress. The addicts themselves may not be able to understand why they are acting out sexually or why constant thoughts either of having sex with someone or compulsively masturbating fill their minds. Sex becomes the most important thing in their lives much like alcohol dominates the life of an alcoholic leaving little time for anything else.

The family

Studies reveal that a large percentage of sex addicts come from dysfunctional families. Patrick Carnes' research indicates that 87% of the families of sex addicts included more than one addict in the home and a majority of them grew up with some experience of physical, sexual, and or emotional abuse. The child grows up much like an adult in a little child's body only to become like a little child in an adult's body later in life. The future sex addict learned to self soothe as opposed to soothing with the comfort of a caring and consistent care giver. They learn to adapt to their life experience and to find comfort in sex. Sex addicts simply come from families that failed to meet their emotional needs and may have left them a family legacy of dysfunction. Thus, the family plays a critical role in the development of sexual addiction.

The Media

Should we not consider media as one of the triggering forces that lead one to sexual addiction? The media bombards us with images sexualizing men, women, and even children, espousing the concept that sex unleashes the full potential of a man or a woman. A study by The Center for Media and Public Affairs' found that sexual content is featured once every four minutes on network TV and that 75 percent of prime time television in the 1999-2000 seasons included sexual content. Substantial numbers of sex addicts point to their overexposure to sexual materials as a contributing factor to their sexual addiction.

The Internet

The Internet has become the most rapidly growing form of sexual acting out for many sex addicts. The Internet is a one-stop shop for the sex addict where he or she can access sexual content of an endless variety and engage in cybersex or view pornographic materials in isolation, with secrecy, and instant accessibility. In a study conducted among 932 sex addicts, 90% of men and 77% of women said pornography was significant to their addictions. More frightening is the impact the Internet is having on our children who are increasingly exposed to this content. The first generation of men and women raised with the Internet are now entering adulthood. This is a generation of people who were significantly exposed to age inappropriate sexual content at very early ages. It is a little scary.

Now, can we really blame the family, the media or the advent of the Internet for the rise in sexual addiction? There are many culprits that lead to a person becoming dependent on sex to get high, numb out, or escape in fantasy. These are some of the more important ones but unfortunately there are many more.
