A loss of sexual desire is usually psychological or hormonal in origin. Because Viagra is designed primarily to improve blood flow to the penis, it is unlikely to be of much help in firing up the libido.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n

Viagra and the other erectile dysfunction drugs known as PDE5 inhibitors were developed to treat ED caused by insufficient blood flow to the penis, which accounts for roughly 80 percent of all male impotence diagnoses.<\/p>\n

Sexual desire, which plays a critical role in the sex lives of every man and woman, is most often a psychological phenomenon and, as such, is not affected by Viagra or similar drugs. Without sexual desire, neither men nor women have much motivation to engage in sexual activity.<\/p>\n

Testosterone Plays Key Role<\/h3>\n

Testosterone, the primary male sex hormone but present in both men and women, does play a key role in regulating sexual desire. Some medical professionals theorize that a deficiency of the hormone can lead to a decline in sexual desire. In such cases, testosterone replacement therapy might be considered as a possible treatment, at least in men.<\/p>\n

However, Viagra and the other ED medications have no real effect on hormone levels and will not help to replenish testosterone in men whose T-levels are abnormally low.<\/p>\n

Because ED itself can lead to psychological issues, such as depression and anxiety, taking Viagra to overcome ED symptoms could ease those psychological issues and thus help to fire up the sex drive, albeit indirectly.<\/p>\n

Psychological Counseling<\/h3>\n

The most widely prescribed course of treatment for a low sex drive is psychological counseling, which can hopefully identify the underlying factors behind the loss of interest in sex. Once those factors have been pinpointed and addressed through counseling, the patient\u2019s sex drive should begin to return to normal.<\/p>\n

Unfortunately, the use of medication in treating psychological issues connected to a loss of interest in sex may not always produce the hoped-for results. Certain antidepressants and tranquilizers themselves can make it difficult to get and keep an erection, so patients should immediately communicate such problems to their therapist. In some cases, alternative medications can be prescribed.<\/p>\n

Relationship and Workplace Problems<\/h3>\n

Other widely diagnosed causes of reduced sexual desire may be such external factors as relationship problems and difficulties in the workplace. If troubles in your intimate relationship seem to be at the heart of your problem, couples counseling might be the wisest course of action. If you\u2019re having difficulties with coworkers, you might need to seek the assistance of a supervisor who could mediate the problems or, if all else fails, transfer you to another part of the operation where the risk of conflict might be lower.<\/p>\n

While Viagra might not be able to fire up your libido in and of itself, it can overcome problems of vascular compromise so that you can perform at your very best sexually.<\/p>\n
