JAKARTA - A good quality sex relationship not only affects pleasure, but also helps strengthen the emotional bond of husband and wife. Therefore, it is important for husbands and wives to build good habits every day so as not to worsen performance in bed.
"There are many things that clearly contribute to a decrease in sexual desire, such as too much stress and too little sleep," said clinical sexologist, Lawrence Siegel, quoted from Huffpost, on Saturday, December 13, 2025.
Some daily habits that can reduce sexual desire are as follows.
1. Playing the phone too often
Playing too often or a lot of cell phones like scrolling through social media every day turns out to lower the passion for sex. This is because this habit makes it difficult for someone to feel connected to their own body.
Playing too much on the phone with everything that can be accessed can make a person socially isolated, as well as at risk of experiencing stress and anxiety. This will make the urge and desire to have sex plummet.
2. Too much sitting
Minimal physical activity every day and too much sitting can get various diseases such as heart problems and diabetes. However, this habit is also related to sexual desire.
"Research shows that there is a correlation between increased physical activity and improved health and sexual function. In addition, inactivity can have a negative impact on mood, self-esteem, and partner perceptions," explains sex therapist and clinical psychologist, Kelifen Pomeranz.
3. Drinking less water
Water is the main source of hydration for the body. Sexual desire is influenced by the smoothness of blood flow which is also directly influenced by the level of water intake in the body.
"Hydration is the most important part of arousal, function, orgasm, and pleasure," concludes sexologist, Goody Howard.
