Reviewed: Dr. Gromatzky
Symptom #5: Libido Loss
Sex is one of the most natural acts there is and is performed throughout the animal kingdom. Studies have shown that sex is an important part of a relationship, helping to form and maintain bonds between partners.
If you are not getting enough sleep, though, your desire to have sex is likely to fall. Studies in men showed that a lack of sleep leads to a decrease in testosterone levels. This will, in turn, have a negative effect on their libido. A lack of sleep is likely to affect the libido of women as well.
