chome4 Posted June 6, 2007 Share Posted June 6, 2007 Happened to me me, mostly as a result of bad lifestyle, bad diet and mega-stress in my work life. I'm from the UK so it's not difficult be non-randy here!!!! Even when I'm in Thailand, I don't really have an interest in sex. I'm 43 and should still be as rampant as hel_l. I too have experience looking at someone who should set my pulse racing and my blood pressure rising - but, like you, NOTHING. It's probably psychological if you're in OK shape. Wouldn't hurt to go and have a quick check up. I've improved slightly and quite happy to not be like a 'permanently erect' eighteen-year-old. But I'm sure it's mental. Maybe a bit more experimentation in your private life. Good luck anyway. Good health to you.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ronthompson Posted June 6, 2007 Share Posted June 6, 2007 Being a diabetic blood pressure medication and certain other drugs will really put a halt to sex drive, After I arrived in Thailand my B/P returned to normal and I stopped medication, Sex drive improved quickly. Now I too find it decreassing but in my case I believe it to be releated to age for I am 66. If I was younger I would seriously consider getting checked out in a Bangkok Hospital I have been very happy with Bangkok Nursing Hospital amd the price is very reasonable Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Otherwise I am baffled...... dont smoke, not overweight, one beer a day, take vitamins etc. I am rather old. But that shouldn't be the cause. Men can have good sex into their 80s.

John K Posted June 10, 2007 Share Posted June 10, 2007 Luckydog. Let me make sure what you are saying here. Libido as in desire and not the ability to get an erection.

I seem to have lost the desire that I used to have in abundance......thats given rise to Impotence. Cant understand it? Ok to start off with you need to understand a few things that can be hidden unless you look for them. Like women, men also have a regular cycle. The older a man is the more he becomes aware of it. That cycle is tied to desire. For myself my cycle seems to be about 50 days. For about one week my sexual desire is near zero. Then about 10 days later I can’t seem to get enough. To best describe it for me it would look like a heart beat on a EKG with a significant period between each pulse. The length of the cycle is not the same for everyone. To find your cycle all you need is a calendar and a pencil. You should mark days with desire without sexual activity. The same for days with sexual activity along with anything else like your ambient stress level. That should be enough information to find the length of your cycle. For the short term you can indulge in aphrodisiacs. One of the most potent I have found in Thailand is Ginseng tea. The strongest Ginseng root is from Korea and you can find that at Tokyu at MBK. That works fast in about 10 minutes but does not last long perhaps an hour, but by that time most people are done with sexual activities. Also a sudden change in your diet can lead to this. Certain vitamins and minerals are directly related to sexual activity and desire. Zinc and vitamins E and B come to mind without getting out my books. Prolonged exposure to heat can also reduce your sex drive. A teacher who is teaching in un-air-conditioned class rooms as an example. Wearing boxers would be better than briefs in that case. That would be the first things I would do. If the problem persists then I would look deeper at other possible problems. If you have not had a physical in a while then get one with full blood work and get your testosterone level checked. Other possibilities include a virus, stress, or even an insect bite. I am a bit concerned in that I have had an unusual high number of men in the past 3 months contact me on this. I am beginning to wonder if there is some unknown in the environment, a virus, or just a generally higher stress level. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JimsKnight Posted June 10, 2007 Share Posted June 10, 2007 Been a randy Sod all my life. But now, quite suddenly, I have gone off sex!When I first came to LOS I was like a kid in a Chocolate Factory. The Fems really turned me on. But now I look at them and .......NOTHING! Has this happened to anyone else? THis could be due to the novelty of LOS wearing thin. The thai men, if you notice, are very chilled out around good looking thai women, so maybe its getting used to the whole scene as well take, as you say, a kid in the chocolate factory being the guy just back in LOS and then getting used to it all (again!) and you see where I'm coming from. I've had a reduced desire before, and decided to go bike touring, after a few days of roving adventure my desire returned. I think being in one place for too long (for me anyway) starts to erode not just my sex drive but my zest for doing new things and creativity. Take a break from any excess habits like boozing, smoking and sex. Jerking off should be relented as well as too much of this will leave you drained (mentally and physically). Exercise is a good tool for being proactive and keeping fit, undoubtably this will also get your love needle back in the groove Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luckydog, I agree with all the above, but since you mentioned an enlarged, inflamed prostate, go and get it checked. John, maybe the high number of men you have seen has more to do with their age and declining sexual function than a virus ? Tim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
expatwannabe Posted June 10, 2007 Share Posted June 10, 2007 I have an enlarged inflamed prostate so maybe it is that.......Taking antibiotics for it. Saw Palmetto is something you can take to help address an inflamed prostate, and it's safer than antibiotics. You can get supplements easily enough through the Internet. Some nutritional or vitamins stores in LOS might carry it too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John K Posted June 10, 2007 Share Posted June 10, 2007 Tim so far the youngest has been 37 and the oldest 63 so a virus is still a contender. Desire is tied to hormones and the natural decline as one ages is normal. Staying sexually active naturally keeps the hormone level up. A person who is not sexually active in their late 30's may have less hormones than a sexually active 60 year old. I did however completely miss what he said about his prostate being inflamed. That however is more tied to ejaculation and not desire. To know about a inflamed prostate requires an examination so I am curious as to how that was diagnosed unless it is difficult to urinate. The exam requires a rubber glove ,a tube of KY and about 10 seconds of holding on to the end of the exam table. Testosterone is primary produced in the testes. Your testes are slightly cooler than the rest of you body and move up and down like a thermostat to keep the temperature constant. Men with low sperm counts are told not to wear briefs for that reason. It stands to reason it can effect the level of testosterone produced too. Once all the reasons above in my posts have been ruled out and perhaps a few more then the next logical step is move on to the primary sex organ known as the human brain. Only then is hypnotherapy introduced. Psychotherapy is much less effective as desire comes directly from the subconscious mind. It is simply one of the therapies that hypnotherapy is the first best and probably the only logical choice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am beginning to wonder if there is some unknown in the environment, a virus, or just a generally higher stress level. John, I never heard of this "regular cycle" for men. Mine is still as high as it was when I was 14, if not higher, so my cycle must be about 59 years long, or longer. I'll agree that many men (not I) lose their libido with age, that many men have very low libido, etc. I never heard of aphrodisiacs that work, but maybe they exist. I taught in hot classrooms which did nothing to decrease my drive. Anyway, I'll go for the inflamed prostate in Luckydog's case, or smoking, medications, booze, etc.You never know, though. Your next climax might be your last. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t have the exact information handy but you should get an idea about the male cycle and how it applies.
