In advertisements, we most often hear about ways that will make us perform better in bed and we will feel like having sex more often. However, not everyone has such a problem, because some persistent thoughts about sex do not give peace. What should men do who would like to reduce their desire for sex?
The most important way is to avoid the stimuli that make us think about sex. People who watch the so-called “adult movies”, they may think about sex all the time, but not necessarily because their libido is too high. Therefore, it is worth for such people to engage in activities that do not evoke such emotions. Although it is difficult today, because the “tempting” content can be accessed all the time on the phone, it is worth to start practicing sports, cooking, meeting friends or catching up with work, instead of indulging in entertainment that stimulates sexual excitement.
Arousal on demand
Another thing to consider if you want to reduce your libido is to avoid stimulants like caffeine. So let’s give up energy drinks and coffee. On the other hand, it is good to limit the stimulants that dull consciousness. Although alcohol or drugs can interfere with the appearance of an erection and thus distract from sexual activity, it is better to stay away from them. After such stimulants, we have less control over our behavior, we are more relaxed and people with too much libido may experience fits of erotic thoughts or behaviors that may provoke an increased desire for caresses.
Calm down
Just as it is worth avoiding stimulating the body, it is also good to take care of its calming and calming down. In the evening, instead of beer or coffee, it is worth reaching for tea with honey, chamomile or teas with a calming effect. It is also good to prevent boredom in the evenings, because it is the greatest ally of compulsive thinking about sex. That is why it is worth going for a walk or a bike, so that the body is tired in the evening and it is easier to calm down.
When to see a specialist?
People who, despite the above recommendations, are unable to control their excessively exuberant libido, which interferes with their everyday life, should consult a psychologist or sexologist. With therapy or pharmacology, such symptoms may be reduced. However, it is worth remembering that sex drive is a natural human reflex. Therefore, if it interferes with our lives a lot, it may be worth considering the reasons for our approach, instead of trying to force it down.
