I've actually been wondering about castration for a while. The main thing I want to know is somewhat with sex drive. Now I actually haven't done much research on the topic but does anyone know a relative way to describe your overall decrease in sex drive, as well as could it possibly increase your desire to be alone for the rest of your life, relationship wise?

Surgical castration involves the removal of the testes, so you'd no longer produce either sperm or most of your male hormones.  It is permanent.  The reduction in testostorone will eliminate your sex drive.  Other sides effects include growth of breasts and hips, night sweating, chronic body pain, and osteoporosis.  It's not a step that should be taken lightly.  It's not like you'll just stop wanting sex.  You'll look different and feel different and you can't change your mind once it's done.

It sounds like your man has low testosterone. This is very common for a guy his age. He can get a blood test by his doctor to see if he suffers from low test. This can be caused by lack of exercise, bad diet, overweight, lazy, and just age. He could try over the counter natural formulas to get him back in the saddle again like enzyte. It’s nothing to be embarrassed about. Many young people in their upper 20s are going through the same thing now days. I would get him started with finding out what is causing the lack of wanting sex before trying to get new positions established.

I have a better solution... why not deplete the testosterone out of all males under the age of 25... then put it back when they marry and vow to remain monogamous.\n\nAll your solution does is allow more free sex... resulting in more STDs,etc...

I wish people would quit looking at the disabled like they shouldn't be allowed to have a sex drive or a relationship. They have the exact same desires as the rest of us and if your best friend hasn't been laid in a while...I think it's a great idea!

Was he like this when you first got married? Has his sex drive dropped or stayed the same? Some men don't have a very active libido. It's usually hormonal.\n\nIf it isn't satisfying to you, try to suggest seeing a medical doctor.\n\nA person's sex drive is an individual thing. But for the record, your husband's does seem rather low for a newlywed guy. I had a friend who's husband was the same. He got help--against his wishes--but it worked.\n\nYou can't compare yourself with other couples, really, but  the average is about 3 times a week. We do it more often because my husband is a horn dog. As he ages, it is lessening though. We've been married for 20 years.

LOL umm are you getting more exercise and eating better? have you seen more hot girls on tv or out? exercise increases testosterone..and libido. have you stopped or slowed down the amount of sex you've been having? Images and health are the only things I could think of.

I know the feeling. For me, it is just a part of my lifestyle. I just take all the energy that might be used in expressing myself (sexually) and put it into different areas of my life. For example, volunteering, expressing yourself artistically (through music, song, poetry, drawing, etc.). After a while, it's really not that hard. I do have to admit that at first (right after I got saved and choose to be celibate) it took alot of energy trying to mentally keep myself from (lusting) after men.\n\nYou can do it!

i've dated a guy like that.  he was very shy, but very sweet.  I helped him break his shell, and then ripped his heart apart when we broke up.  I still feel guilty to this day and wish I would of kept him. he was a sweetheart, i was young and flighty.  i learned my lesson, and he had enough experience to move on and find a very nice wife and just started a family. i'm very happy for him.  can't say this will happen but if i had to do it again i would. we both benefitted in the long term.  as for the masturbating, all guys do it, and all to different degrees whether they have had sex or not. it's not so much sexual as a tension release for them or something to clear their minds.  like a journal but they only get as far as sharpening the pencil.

Feel lucky you have such a great sex drive! As long as you are not participating in unhealthy behaviors like having multiple partners without condoms and your masturbation and sex drive is not interfiering in your day to day life, you have nothing to worry about!  Your one of the lucky few!!! I've had an abnormally high sex drive like you since I was 16 and still have it and my husbands friends and my friends husbands are always very envious of our relationship. Many many women loose their sex drive as they get older!

You probably feel ashamed because of how you were raised.  I believe that single people should masturbate to their hearts content as long as they are not doing it in public. Now I guess I am a hypocrite because I feel that while you are married you should only masturbate with your partners permission. I know this sounds weird but I think that is something two people who are in a commited relationship should discuss.

I've been on the ring for about 3 years.  I love it.  I actually chose not to get my period at all so I cange it the 1st of every month.  My OB said it was fine to go without getting my period at all or I can go every three months...at the end of my third month I would take it out for a week then put a new one in on the 1st as usual.  But I had stopped using it back in April since my husband and I had decided to try to have another baby.  I noticed that my sex drive has increased a bit since I am no longer using it...I had realized during the 3 years of using it, that my sex drive had slowly decreased,  I thought it was because I had a baby and I was tired and stressed with work, my daughter and keeping up the house.  But I think now that the birthcontrol had a little to do with it too.  But other then that the Nuva-Ring was GREAT...at first my husband felt it...but after a few times he didnt even notice it.  Good Luck!

Has anyone ever used the word masturbation in your presence?\nGoogle it, you are ultimately responsible for your own sexuality, not your wife!

Sadly.. it does have this effect... my wife and I struggled for a while... didn't speak... spilt up... then started to speak... she stopped with the injections.. we got back together.. I had a vasectomy [drastic].. sex life took off again and is now beter than ever..\n\nLoss of sex-drive is an awful side effect of a quite wonderful contraceptive.. is it worth the possible damage to your relationship for the lack of periods? Only you can answer that!\n\nPersonally I would talk about it with your partner and your doctor and see what alternatives you have..\n\nGood luck

19 with two little kids and a boyfriend of 5 years, yep my sex drive would be gone too. Being tired or over burdened or even giving out a ton of love and affection to children all day can make it feel like theres nothing left at the end of the day. \nThat combined with the fact that youre still young could kill a sex drive.

I use to think i was sick and asked my Dr. if i was normal to have such a strong drive that it drove me crazy and i seemed  to want more all the time. He said, it is a natural and normal feeling and some people have stronger drive than others. I started experimenting to try and learn how to control it better so not to drive me so batty. Don't be so concerned this is natural and your blessed to have orgasm's and a good strong healthy drive and desire for love. It's called life. Some people wish they could do what your able to accomplish. Masturbating is healthy and normal. The fact that you can help yourself while he's away keeps you out of trouble and satisfied. Learn to teach yourself and him how to turn you on more. Foreplay is a very wonderful way to teach and learn from each other. It will turn you both on to do this to one another and share idea's and curiosity's and fulfill each others fantasies and make some up as you go. I have personal experience and can tell you honestly that this really works as long as you are both willing and able to open up and share with each other. Good luck hope i helped

i don't know exactly what casues it. it might be different for each person. but for me it was becasue i was rapped and then the first time that i had consentual sex he didn't know what he was doing and he went to fast and hurt me too much. so i think that is why now i have no sex drive. but it might in her case not be that drastic. some people jsut don't like having sex. there is no reason to be concerned. or maybe she just hasn't found what she likes yet.
