If you are not happy with your sex life, you are not alone. Experts have named major “passion killers,” as well as ways to deal with them.
Cold Feet
It may seem surprising, but one of the simplest methods to increase libido in women is to wear warm socks to bed. Researchers from the University of Groningen found that 80 % of women reach orgasm when wearing socks, and only 50% with bare feet. It turns out that socks allow you to relieve anxiety and fear, which you need to relax in bed.
Hair Loss Remedies
Men suffering hair loss often take a very effective drug – finasteride – and its derivatives. It lowers testosterone level, which can help preserve the hair. But the lower the amount of testosterone, the lower the libido. Therefore, you’ll have to choose one of the two.
Stuffy Nose
There is a growing body of scientific evidence that libido has a smell. And those suffering from anosmia (lack of smell) have significantly fewer sexual partners than their peers, distinguishing smells. 83% of allergic people complain that this disorder often causes a stuffy nose, which has a negative impact on their sex life.
Bedroom TV-Set
Italian scientists have found out that couples who have a TV-set in the bedroom are 50% less likely to have sex than those who do not have it.
Bleeding Gums
Men with bleeding gums are 3 times more likely to suffer from erectile dysfunction caused by the same risk factors: aging, smoking, diabetes, and cardiovascular disease. If you have bleeding gums and impotence, it may be caused by poor blood circulation.
Alcohol Intake
A little alcohol enhances libido but too much – kills it. It is partially because alcohol reduces skin sensitivity.
Birth Control Pills
Studies have shown that sometimes birth control pills reduce women’s sexual desire. Those who take hormonal contraceptives are particularly affected.
Excess Weight
Maintaining healthy weight is vital for sex life. Obesity lowers testosterone levels, and obese people can hardly excite anyone aesthetically.
Hypertension
Some hypertension pills adversely affect libido. Choose drugs from the group of angiotensin-receptor blockers, which, on the contrary, act like Viagra.
Antidepressants
Selective inhibitors of serotonin (a class of antidepressants) may reduce sexual desire. Resort to other medications to increase libido.
Mess in the Bedroom
Unmade bed, a dirty ashtray on the bedside table, dust on the carpet and furniture – all this mess in the bedroom does not fit well with the romantic setting that is needed for sex. Take a broom and a vacuum cleaner!
