It is a common misconception that only women suffer from low libido, but the truth is that about 1 in 5 men suffer from low sex drive and push sex into the background compared to other activities.

Low male libido causes
Aging is the main causal factors of low male libido; however, it is not the only reason for this condition. All men are different and although many maintain their sexual desire throughout life, others suffer a break at certain times and due to various causes. The main causes can be:

Psychological causes: Stress and anxiety present in the day-to-day problems in relationships, depression and its treatment, can affect sexual desire.

Medical problems: Health problems such as diabetes, obesity, high blood pressure or high cholesterol, also influence sexual desire, as well as some anti-AIDS drugs and hair loss.

Hormonal causes: Testosterone is the hormone in both male and female, is responsible for sexual desire. In some chronic diseases, due to some medication or after andropause, testosterone levels can undergo breakage, having negative consequences on the male libido. Sexuality can also be affected by low levels of thyroid hormone or prolactin produced in the brain.

Dopamine: Dopamine is a messenger substance in the brain; with this your body is closely linked to sexual desire. Low levels of dopamine, common in people with depression or other neurological diseases, are proven to interfere with sexual desire.

Let yourself be carried away by the moment: If your partner or partner wants to have sex and your will is not much, just do not say no. Give in to her advances and lose yourself in the moment. The most certain is that the dormant sex drives awakens in the middle of stimulation and can take pleasure.

Sleep well: Sleeping well increases the production of testosterone during the night, which will allow more constant levels during the day and the increase in sexual desire, especially in the morning.

Evaluate other sexual dysfunction: Erectile dysfunction can shake male confidence, which in turn has an impact on sexual desire. The inability to achieve erections sufficient for penetration needs some professional care; your condition should be properly evaluated and may require the taking of oral treatments for impotence, to help eliminate this concern.

Have sex elsewhere: The mind-set that will have sex in the same bed and in the same room can always be demotivating. Consider other rooms such as bathroom, kitchen or living room in the house, which can further stimulate your sex drive simply by being different.

How to Improve Sexual Performance

Our Western culture has focused - sometimes in excess and with concern - on penis size. The pornography industry shows dimensions that are not found in the vast majority of men. This concern about the penis size also existed in other periods of history; however, cultures like ancient Chinese, they were focused on strengthening the penis and erections as a way to increase the sexual pleasure of the man and his partner and reduce unnecessary anxieties.

Taoist sexual practices are specially designed exercises to cultivate vital energy, including sexual, and improve sexual performance of men and women. The following exercises can be helpful to have a harder erection throughout the intimate relationship as well as to enhance your male sexual energy and your level of sexual desire.
As part of your program of sexual empowerment, remember to eat healthy and do physical exercise - including Kegel exercises, which will help to strengthen the pelvic muscles. Moreover, visit your doctor if you had any symptoms or condition of major health that needs to be treated. Start with few repetitions of each exercise and gradually augment your endurance level. The idea is to mobilize energy and also enjoy playing without producing exhaustion.

Massage testicles to cultivate sexual energy
This exercise allows you to generate and retrieve male sexual energy. Through this massage, boost testosterone level, a sex hormone which is produced in the testes. It serves to revitalize the sexual energy, stronger erection and relieve any pressure in the testes that might feel after intercourse. The Taoist Master Mantak Chia suggests the following steps:

·        First, rub your hands to warm and mobilize the healing energy on them.
·        With your index finger and thumb hold one of your testicles and massage gently but firmly at once, for one or two minutes. If you feel any pain continue with gentle massage until it disappears. Pain is a signal lock and massage helps bring energy and blood to that area, thereby prevent blocking. Then do the same with the other testicle.
·        Then, lift your penis and using middle finger gently tap your testicles for two minutes. This massage invigorates and increases sperm production.

·       Finally, hold your base of your penis and scrotum between your thumb and forefinger, and thrust forward, while pushing your pelvic muscles back. Then pull to the left as you run the pelvic muscles to the right, and vice versa. Finally pulling your penis and scrotum down, while directing your pelvic muscles up. It is recommended to repeat this sequence of exercises 9, 18 or 36 times. It also helps maintain healthy sperm ducts.

Hold weights to increase strength
This exercise is to hold small weights with an erect penis to increase their strength. Attach two objects to your penis with a string of 10-12 inches: one at the base of the penis and another near the glans. Both objects must weigh a total of about 120 grams. It is suggested to do this weight lift for 20 to 40 times a day. You can increase a little weight as you increase your strength, but do not overdo or strain yourself too much. This is not a competition.

Achieve an iron-like erection

The following exercise is based on a practice engaged by Buddhist monks to strengthen their hands and to break bricks and wood with them. To make your penis stronger, fill a container with dry and soft sand. Cover your penis with a condom and then – once erect - dip it in the sand. Do it gently but firmly while avoiding rapid jerky movements that could cause injury to your penis. Start with 20 repetitions daily and increases gradually to perform 100 repetitions.
