How to increase libido after menopause

After menstruation stops, different changes will occur in women's bodies and men's bodies. Women's physical fitness will become weaker, and their body functions will gradually decline, which may even affect their sexual desire. They will no longer feel more pleasure, and on the contrary, they may become sexually apathetic. So if you want to increase your sexual desire after menopause, you can do this.

1. Emotions: When people are in a bad mood, their sexual desire is likely to decrease temporarily, especially in bad states such as extreme sadness, terror, depression and despair, their sexual desire will be significantly affected or even completely lost. In view of this, when your lover is in a bad mood, the first thing to do is to help him or her eliminate negative emotions and take good care of mental health. You should not have sex at this time. If your lover just tries to cope with it reluctantly, it will not only fail to arouse pleasure, but will also easily lead to sexual indifference and damage the relationship between the couple.

Nutrition is the material basis of sexual life. Research results show that the lack of important elements such as protein and zinc can cause sexual dysfunction, especially in men. On the contrary, adequate and complete nutrition, especially eating more foods containing high-quality protein, multiple vitamins and zinc, can maintain normal levels of sexual function.

3. Smoking and drinking: Long-term and heavy smoking is more likely to cause impotence than non-smokers. Long-term alcohol abuse can cause sexual dysfunction and decreased libido. According to research, heavy drinking can cause vasodilation, lack of blood flow and pleasure to the penis, leading to a decrease in sexual desire. However, the effects of tobacco and alcohol on sexual function are reversible. After quitting tobacco and alcohol, most people's sexual function can gradually return to normal levels.

Long-term or excessive use of certain drugs can lead to sexual dysfunction, and even cause impotence in men and frigidity in women. There are many types of drugs that affect sexual function, among which the important and common ones are: reserpine, Rauwolfia, propranolol, chlorpromazine, profenofibrate and some anti-cancer drugs. Long-term radiation therapy can also lead to a decrease in sexual desire.

5. Living conditions : Living in a messy, poorly ventilated, and overcrowded environment will not only cause bad moods, but also lack of fresh air indoors, leading to insufficient oxygen supply to the brain, affecting sexual function and reducing sexual desire. Especially when several generations live in the same room or sleep in the same bed with their children, invisible psychological pressure will be created, which can easily lead to a decrease in sexual desire.
