Although guys like to make out that they have a firm red penis that is always erect and ready to go at the drop of a hat, the truth is that there are times when every man’s libido is at a “low ebb.” Sometimes this is temporary; other times it can be longer lasting. One study indicates that about 15% of men experience some extended form of decreased interest in sex, so it is not an uncommon occurrence. Learning how to handle periods of low sexual interest and how to restore libido is part of appropriate penis care. The following tips can help.

Causes

There are any number of reasons why a man may experience periods of or continuing low libido. These include:

– Stress (whether due to work or personal causes)

– Low self-esteem

– Erectile dysfunction

– Depression

– Medical conditions (e.g., hypertension, diabetes, cardiac issues, etc.)

– Alcoholism

– Medications

– Relationship issues

Boosters

The cause of the sexual disinterest usually impacts what steps can be taken to raise libido; for example, depression may require psychotherapy and/or medications designed to alleviate feelings associated with depression. Alcoholism, of course, may require extensive treatment to enable a person to rid himself of a dependency on alcohol.

Because different causes require different treatments, there is no one way to address low libido (other than consulting one’s doctor as a first step); however, many men find that the following help to provide libido boosts that can be very helpful.

– Get moving. Exercise is important for overall physical (and mental) health, and it definitely plays a role in libido repair. Regular exercise helps to improve blood flow, which is important in male sexual issues. Some exercises can also play a role in delivering testosterone into the bloodstream. (As always, consult a doctor before beginning a new exercise routine.)

– Meditate. Meditation is especially good for helping relieve stress, so if stress is a possible factor in one’s diminished sex drive, meditation is one way to get that active red penis back.

– Go aphrodisiacal (in a natural way). There is debate about the effectiveness of foods that are considered aphrodisiacs – but many men swear by them. The list of supposed “sex foods” is long and varied, but among the most commonly cited are oysters, figs, bananas, avocados, chocolate (especially dark chocolate), chilies, garlic, pomegranates, walnuts, and asparagus. Dig in, men!

– Talk. Often the cause for sexual disinterest is a lack of honest and open communication with one’s partner. A man may be keeping things bottled up that then express themselves in decreased sexual desire. Getting these issues out in the open and dealing with them can often result in more interest in bedtime activities.

– Lose weight. Obesity can have a dampening effect on sex drive and performance, as well as increasing the likelihood of diabetes (which also can diminish libido). Even losing a little weight can often make a big difference.

– Herbalize. Some men find that gingko biloba or yohimbine can have significant libido boosting effects; however, it’s a good idea to check with a doctor before trying these, especially if blood pressure is an issue.

– Keep the penis healthy. How a man feels about his tool can influence his libido; a member that has dry, flaky skin or that carries a rank odor is not going to help boost libido. Using a superior penis health cream (health professionals recommend Man 1 Man Oil) can help improve the well-being of a guys’ manhood. To get that healthy red penis, look for a cream that includes a knock-out duo of moisturizers, such as shea butter (a high end emollient) and vitamin E (a top notch hydrator), which can address dry penis skin issues. Penis odor can be diminished if the cream also contains vitamin A, which is blessed with anti-bacterial properties that attack the source of that odor.
