Sex Drive for middle aged men?

Category: 450, Tags: , ,

Scott K asked:


I am 49 years old. I am not gay, I love women and I often fantisize about women that I see that I think are attractive, but when it comes right down to the act itself i suddenly loose interest. Everything works just fine, I mean i could cut diamonds with some of the erections I get but it seems my sex drive has really gone down. Is that natural in men my age?

As we get older, we begin to produce less testosterone, this can have a direct effect on our libido. If you are experiencing a problem, you should talk to your doctor. There are things that can be done to bring things back to normal.

go to your doctor and get your situation checked out– you may need to start taking Viagra or some sort of pill like that.

49 and still pimpin.. you are my hero… i like the other answer you got… go talk to your doc.. i dont think its viagra you need, but maybe it is due to low test levels. the doc may be able to help you.. test levels drop off after 30 and they may be able to help you get levels back up.. there are also herbal products that you can buy over the counter, i dont know if they really work, but the most common is tribulus terrestris. it is a common product used by bodyuilders. it is a natural product that is supposed to boost testosterone production by the body.. also sold as a libido booster.

You should still be functioning at 49. There may be a problem your doctor can treat.
Your sex drive is often related to your testosterone levels.

Yes. It should happen to more of us - maybe there would be less broken homes.

Testosterone levels drop over time, sometimes precipitously at various ages. You can get testosterone shots, but my doctors didn’t recommend it for me because of the side effects.

You’re fine. Work on the quality of your relationships with women. Their sex drives also lessen. It’s God’s way of giving us a break from the driving hormones of the younger years. Enjoy.

At 54, I can say I understand all too well what you are going through. The equipment works… you just don’t care…. :-{

The best advise has been given… go see your doctor. I did about 4 years ago because I was just where you are now. They did a simple blood screen and found out that I was suffering from low levels of Testosterone. A trip to Walgreen’s with my little piece of paper and I walked away with a magic cure… it’s not real cheap mind you, but well worth the expense. Comes in two forms…. a patch…. just like the “quit smoking” things…. or an alcohol based ointment (quick drying) that you rub on your chest twice a day. The drug has to be absorbed through the skin…. Can’t be taken orally because it the body can’t handle large doses of it all at once. Needs to absorb it slowly, so through the skin works best.

Hope this helps…. I feel like a new man… no pun intended… :-}
