Ways to Reduce Sex drive
Posted: 11/1/2007 6:28:48 AM
OP....I use to work out every day, seven days a week. I had the same thing happen to me. My sex drive went through the roof. This is due to many factors. The increase in blood flow, heart rate, adrenaline, and testosterone are contributing factors.

Although I didn't feel the need to act on it, there were times that I had to learn how to settle it down a bit. After a good work out, I added to the "cool down" routine, and then did some relaxation/meditation techniques afterwards, for at least one hour. I found that it helped to lower my body's response rate, and thus, got my libido back to almost normal.

Aweeee, ....maybe to those with healthy sex appetite so think twice when choosing serious partners for love and marriage too. Make sure they have the same appetite as you so it will never be an issue.

Get some beta sisterol from gnc. Start taking 150mg twice a day. It'll kill your libido.

Fair play to you. You sound like any person's dream -you praise your wife, happily married etc...breath of fresh air honest!

I've sometimes felt like that..the way you do...
Personally I've found though when I stopped helping myself eventually it would go away...normally however I'd be in trouble when not in a relationship though my last serious relationship my ex seemed completelt disinterested..thats another story...

Hmm see if you're getting regular sex then that keeps the drive going...so the only thing I can think of is be thankful that you're life and wife are that good that you're "suffering from" a high sex drive?

Only thing I can recommend is be like my ex and smoke pot...pot should definately help tone it down a bit!

you could try controlling yourself.

Which I am doing. I'm just trying to see if someone knows a way to bring your desire down a bit. It's not like I am sitting in a corner playing with myself all day or my sex drive is going to make me end up on Jerry springer or something.


I meant "controlling" your desire so that it is not a force which burns you up inside. Not necessarily having anything to do with orgasming, but rather achieving a greater inner understanding of libido itself. Meditation would probably help.

Easy enough. Start smoking a pack a day and drinking a 6 (canadian beer of course) every night,, that should cure your "dillema".

Seriously dude, don't even complain about that because some day you may get your wish and then you'll be complaining about something a whole lot worse. Can you say Viagra?

Your young .... don't worry about it .... you could take estrogen ... but then you might develop breasts. Though who knows ... you might like that too.

In the zone .... you mean you get a hard on 2 times a day ... big deal. most young guys get hard about 50 times a day..... just suck it up and control yourself ... or go jerk off and don't worry about it.

i dk what you're eating, but i know certain foods can make you pretty horny. chocolate and bananas are a couple i know of, of course oysters, maybe avoid eating foods like that? probably won't help out that much, but thats the only reasonable suggestion i have aside from talking to your wife. i applaud you on being sensitive to her needs and not wanting to fix something that isn't broke, but you might be surprised. maybe she'd like to be waking up the neighbors a bit more as well.

Ever considered castration?

How about a chastity device? Mr S Leather has some real nice ones. Just don't lose the key.

Tell a Doctor to check your Free and Bound testosterone. ( many do not know about this test) Free testosterone is what increases the libido. Most testosterone test do not check the 2 different types. If your Free testosterone is high a doctor can help regulate it.

Dude,

Learn to relax and enjoy it. There are worse problems in life that too much wood. Tell your wife its all her fault - see what you do to me - and have fun....

Happens to everyone, you're not alone.

I had a husband that "cycled". Had times of high desire. We just worked with it and it would get better. Be honest with the wife and ask for her suggestions, help. Most wives will be happy to help you (NOT just having sex, but coming up with suggestions). MD might be able to help, but you might just have to ride it out.

I can still remeber being 14 and in Math class...

Anyway's thanks for all the response's. I've decieded I'm just going to beat myself in the gym. I hate doing that though because it makes going not neer as fun but if that doesn't work I'm gonna try that Monks root stuff and i've been toying with the idea of getting into some kind of yoga for flexibilty also so we will see.

I'll post whatever worked for me in a month or so.

Well I'm not sure what might work for you but for me the main things that reduce my sex drive are as follows:
1. Not getting dinner first.
2. Explaining I'd rather just talk, then two minutes later hearing the guy next to me snoring, (that one will make me not want it for at least a week.)
3. Telling a man I don't feel up to screwing then hearing him ask me to give him head.
4. Going over for a movie and snuggling and halfway through a movie I haven't seen the guy starts getting naked and wanting to get frisky, that really turns me off.
5. Text mesages like "Wanna cum over? hehe" or "My penis is lonely..."
6. A man saying something like "So I have to warn you, it's been a while and I have bad aim."
7. A guy saying on the first date "So when do you get to that point in dating when you get to have sex?"
8. Wearing lingerie and having a guy ask if the dog can sleep in the bed tonight.
9. A guy saying "Sure, we can do it, but you be ontop."
10. Any type of request involving any of the following: strap ons, my best friend, my sister, my mother, midgets, or hot wax.

Yep, there's apparently plenty of ways a man can reduce a woman's sex drive, I'm not sure if you can apply any of this to your life, but I figured- wft- why not share my misery with others? :)~

All of those understandable with the exception of numbers 3 and 9

I don't see why 3 would be a issue if it has been awhile and the deed was done quickly and for number 9 what if he has a hurt back?

Does anyone know of a real way to reduce your Sex drive.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Luvox. My shrink put me on it to try to help me with my obsessive compulsive disorder. Well, it totally killed any desire for sex. I couldn't even have thought I could go two weeks without masturbation, but I did. Not only that, but I wasn't able to finish doing it after I tried to. After two weeks!

Some courts and legislatures have suggested "chemical castration" for sex offenders. All they'd have to do is make the guy (I don't know how it affects women) take Luvox. The guy wouldn't be able to do anything even if he wanted to.

Needless to say, I stopped taking it. It was also making me paranoid.

Not having sex very often seems to do the trick, the more I get it the higher my sex drive gets till I just dont have any energy left to act on the impulse

When I'm not getting any then after a while I'm less bothered about it as a result

So I've never needed to reduce it

If I was dating someone who had a much lower sex drive, or even a much higher one than me you'd be sexually incompatible anyway so there wouldnt be any point wasting any more time on them anyway really which makes the questiona bit of a moot point really

Well giving head is a gift, one I only bestow on a man when I feel he's earned it or when I'm just feeling particularly generous. To ask a woman to give you head after she has turned you down for sex says to her "I only want to use you for the physical release of orgasm and if I can't **** you then I would like you to service me." Sex should be something special, mutually enjoyed by both parties. Not something someone uses another human for, granted we're all guilty of making it into nothing more than a quick fix for a stressful day but in an ideal situation wouldn't we all rather it be better than that? As for number 9, there was nothing wrong with his back, but after five years of that now I wonder if I'll ever be able to cum with a man ontop. I got so used to sex being just something I did to get mine I'm not sure if I can actually have truly involved, emotionally connected sex with another human being. An aside from that, nothing makes a woman feel more wanted than saying something like, "I want it but I don't want to be ontop." If your lust for someone doesn't even motivate you to spend 20 minutes exerting some energy then the relationship just sucks.
