Low sexual desire disorder

[Justin Bieber]

Low sexual desire disorder (sexual desire/interest disorder) is lack of interest in sexual activity and sexual thoughts.

Depression, anxiety, stress, relationship problems, past experiences, drugs, and, less often, hormonal changes can reduce sexual desire.
Improving the relationship and the setting for sexual activity and identifying what stimulates the woman sexually can help.
Psychologic therapies, particularly mindfulness-based cognitive therapy, may be recommended.

A temporary reduction in sexual interest is common, often caused by temporary conditions, such as fatigue. In contrast, low sexual desire disorder causes sexual thoughts, fantasies, and desire for sexual activity to be decreased over a long period of time and more than would be expected for a woman’s age and the length of the sexual relationship. Low sexual desire is considered a disorder only if it distresses women and if desire is absent throughout the sexual experience.
