What can be done to increase libido in men?

Question

Hi doctor,

My partner and I are having issues in our sex life due to our differences. I have more experience and am more open and experimental than him. It has been almost two years and while he has tried a few different things a handful of times, he is not comfortable experimenting or getting rough with me during sex no matter how much I beg. If I try to get rough or talk dirty he has performance issues. So I have had to make all the compromises in our sexual relationship. We do talk very openly about these issues and I have been very clear as to what I want from him and he has said he will try. However, when it comes time to try he is uncomfortable and unable to follow through. It is like he has a mental block. So I just shut down and play along to be sure he gets satisfied while I get left unfulfilled. I do not know what else to do to fix our problems. The rest of our relationship is perfect, it is just our sex life that is suffering. Any advice you could offer would be helpful.

Thank you.

Hi,

Thank you for stopping by!

I am here to provide an expert opinion on your medical issues.

You can talk with him again while both of you are in a relaxed state and discuss the problems you are facing. If things persist even then, I suggest consulting a counselor. This should help to resolve the issue. Herbal supplements containing Yohimbine, L-arginine, etc. can be used for him to improve his sexual desire.

I hope this information will help you. Please revert in case of further queries.

Thank you.
