Generally speaking, the decline in female sexual desire may be caused by aging, bad living habits, hypothyroidism, polycystic ovary syndrome, diabetes, etc. If you experience any discomfort, it is recommended to go to the hospital in time for treatment under the guidance of a doctor. The specific analysis is as follows:
1. Age
With the increase of age, ovarian function gradually declines, which may reduce the level of estrogen and progesterone in the body, leading to a decrease in sexual desire or even disappearance, which is a normal phenomenon. It is recommended to eat a balanced diet, get enough sleep, and relax, which is good for your health.
2. Bad living habits
If you smoke frequently, the nicotine in the smoke may cause vasoconstriction, reduce blood flow in the vagina, reduce the sensitivity of the reproductive organs, and reduce sexual desire. It is recommended to develop good living habits and avoid smoking, which is conducive to relieving discomfort.
3. Hypothyroidism
Hypothyroidism may be caused by factors such as immune dysfunction, improper use of drugs, and surgical injuries. It may reduce the level of thyroid hormones in the body, slow down the body's basal metabolic rate, make the body feel tired and weak, and thus reduce sexual desire. Symptoms such as chills, slow heart rate, and loss of appetite may also occur. Patients can use drugs such as levothyroxine sodium tablets, thyroid tablets, and methylprednisolone tablets to relieve discomfort under the advice of doctors.
4. Polycystic ovary syndrome
Polycystic ovary syndrome may be caused by genetics, obesity, drug stimulation, etc. The imbalance of estrogen and progesterone in the patient's body may affect the function of the hypothalamus-pituitary-ovarian axis, leading to the above situation. It may also be accompanied by symptoms such as abnormal menstruation, hirsutism, and acne. It is recommended that patients use drugs such as levonorgestrel tablets, compound norgestrel tablets, and dexamethasone tablets for treatment under the guidance of a doctor.
5. Diabetes
Diabetes may be related to mental stress, obesity, genetics, viral infection, etc. Continuous high blood sugar in the patient's body may cause neuropathy, causing a decrease or loss of sensation in the genital area, and a weakened perception of sexual stimulation, resulting in a decrease in libido. Symptoms such as skin infection, fatigue, polyuria, and weight loss generally occur. You can follow the doctor's advice to use metformin hydrochloride tablets, glipizide tablets, insulin aspart injection and other drugs to relieve symptoms.
It is recommended to maintain a regular work and rest schedule, a reasonable diet, and appropriate exercise, which is beneficial to physical health.
