Hey guys so I was wondering, how often does your libido fluctuate? Or is it pretty constant? I remember up until the time I was 26-27 I would be horny 24-7 but now it feels like I can be really horny one day and then the next day be pretty flatlined. I am suspect this might be bcause of some supplements, like ginseng, that I am taking or maybe it is just normal fluctuations? Btw, I am 29. \

P.S. Btw my last T reading was 640

That seems like a normal change in libido as you go through life. I am eight years older than you, and I think you'll find one day of being "flatlined" may go to two or even three days as you get older. Especially if you have a lot things going on. I'm kind of grateful for the fire to die down a little, as I feel a lot more balanced.

Because my PE is going so well at the moment i find that my libido is consistently high these days, before PE it was up and down.

I prefer the 24/7 desire to have sex all the time. Just because its there doesnt make me crazy. It just makes me enjoy life more and feel more drive. Having good sexual libido I think tranfers over into having more drive to just doing things better and more efficiently IMO.

Hi John I feel my libido is quite low I don't get horny very much at all these days, on a rare occasion I might get a spontanous erection seeing a hot woman but it's often weak. I often find that I don't feel horny much during the day and I only really get erections somedays waking up or from watching porn. You could argue it's because I'm older maybe but I feel I'm still fairly young (26) and I should be getting horny more often. I don't think this is normal. I can be around hot women I'm physically attracted to but f feel little response downstairs and no real urge sexually. Just to say I'ts not because I'm gay as I have been getting hardons over women since I was like 9 years old but it seems ever since I injured my dick my libido went down with it too.

I do get days where I feel horny sometimes though but they're not that often.

I feel exactly the same and want my libido to stay at about this level (I am also 37).

I think managing stress, good diet/exercise & avoiding porn are the key things.

I agree with vulcan there. Esp. porn for psychological damage to libido.
I'm 32 and my libido comes and goes, might be flat for 2-4 days then pick up for a few. It normally drops if I've masturbated or had sex. I think alot of this can be psychological - and stress related.
I wish my libido was back to when I was in my early 20's, 24/7. I agree with John too, your sexual energy is directly related to your general energy and gives you more spark for living.
On the flip side, having a high libidio can be VERY frustrating if it is much higher than your partner's. And if this is the case, a lower libido can make things more 'manageable'.
Ideally, my libido would be back 24/7 and so would my partners, but it's not a perfect world is it?
