Low Sexual Desire

When interest or sexual desire decreases in a sustained way, it is called sexual apathy. It is an experience that can affect personal well-being and life as a couple, and that has very diverse causes.

Common causes: Emotional factors such as stress or low mood, situations in the relationship, hormonal changes, and other health conditions may be involved.

When to seek care? It's advisable to evaluate it when the lack of desire persists over time and generates distress or tension, to identify what influences each person.

Which specialist treats it? Depending on the origin, the sexologist, the mental health area, and the endocrinologist may take part. Discussing it openly with a professional helps address it without taboos and find appropriate guidance.
