JAKARTA - Not only are you tired or busy at work, even in your free time you never think about making love with your partner because you are not passionate. You may not have a problem with that, but what about your partner? Psychotherapist, Dr. Jenn Mann, as quoted by WomanTalk, Thursday, November 25, suggests doing this if you're always feeling down.

Remember the beginning of the relationship

“When I asked a female client in her late 20s whose libido was on the decline, what to do while getting ready for a date when she and her partner first met, she gave me a long list. However, the thought made him excited because he finally thought of some sex positions that he had never tried," said Dr. Jenn.

Get in the mood

Can be done by reading erotic novels or watching porn, then taking time to fantasize. A recent study reports that readers of erotic novels have sex 74 percent more often and are more satisfied with their sex than those who don't.

Do the sex

It might sound like coercion if sex is done when you're not passionate. However, when you do it, you will realize that you are still passionate about having sex with your partner. When you don't have sex for a while, testosterone levels drop while it's a big contributor to sex drive. So, don't be lazy to try to keep making love with your partner even if you don't feel passionate.

Check with the doctor

Finally, if all these methods don't help, Dr. Jenn suggested seeing a doctor. “Once a young couple came to my office struggling with their husband's low libido. I suggested testing her hormone levels and when she did, she was diagnosed with low testosterone. After being prescribed testosterone injections, his arousal returned to high," she said.
