Why my sex drive is decreasing?

Question

Hello doctor,

I am a 38-year-old woman, and I have no sex drive at all. My husband always wants it from me; we are both still sexually attracted to each other. I love him deeply. This was started about four years ago. What is going on with me?

Please suggest.

Thank you.

Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I can understand your concern.

This is a common and treatable concern. At your age, hormonal changes, stress, fatigue, or medications can significantly impact desire. The first step is a consultation to discuss your health, lifestyle, and relationship. We may check hormone levels like testosterone and thyroid function.

Management is personalized, often combining lifestyle adjustments, counseling, and sometimes hormonal treatment. Bringing your husband into the conversation can also be very helpful. Please schedule a visit so we can explore this together and find a solution that works for you both.

I hope this helps.

Kindly follow up if you have more concerns.

Thank you.
