libido

Adam had already tried finasteride, which left him feeling anxious, depressed and low in libido.

Byerley, 34, touted benefits of the medicine, but later felt emotionally numb, had brain fog and a loss of libido, she said.

Dr Naseem said creating a trusted space to discuss topics such as vaginal dryness, itching or loss of libido was also crucial.

After about 50 years of service, some of it fruitful, most of it futile, I decided to put my libido away, once and for all.

But for some, a loss of libido is common after life-changing events, such as pregnancy and childbirth, according to the NHS.
