Hello everyone. I want to ask some questions.

I felt low libido after one stressful period of week and one day I wanted to try myself.

I FAILED! After that day I didn't get any morning wood for 6 months.
I masturbated to check myself obsessively because there is no spontaneous erection during the day.
I accepted the situation and for one month, I am getting morning woods.

But I have LOW LIBIDO problem. My test. level is 520 and there are some 50 years old men with the same level. I don't know what is the reason of my libido.

Do you think having a low libido because of my performance anxiety or it is because of test.level?

I have no real good and love ingredient sex for 2 years. Maybe I should try to have sex and after gaining my self esteem my libido may turn back to these good days?

What do you think? Should I take the risk of failing again or wait for my libido back?

Your t level is fine. It will improve if you get a good nights sleep.... every night. And add some fat to your diet. The nighttime and morning wood will then surprise you. It seems more stress and anxiety to me. Once the anxiety subsided, your normal erections return . I'm going through the same thing.

You may want to get a thorough checkup with the doc and do compete blood work up ( incl. prolactin level) to rule out anything else.

I monitored all of the things in my blood but not hormon panels except for the testosterone.

Cholesterol, glucose and such things.

Do you think that having a fear of failure can prevent/block sexual desire that I am expected to feel?

Can it be a cause of low libido? I will try to have a sex to regain my self esteem so my libido can turn back. What do you think?

Stress and anxiety kill libido, that is common knowledge.

What do you think of my question for having sex with GF to beat this anxiety?

Do you think my libido may come back after increasing self esteem by doing this?

Yes, and stop worrying and relax.

He wants not a solution but only to magnify the problems he does not have. How sad. He needs professional help for his brain. We will never help him.

You are always beating me :(
you don't know what does it mean to live in a Muslim society and not being able to share such things easily with someone.

I am lucky to know English and I am writing to you.

:( Sorry for my anxiety

Don't be sorry for your anxiety; correct it. All the post you've made, all the help that members try to give you won't help unless you help yourself. It has nothing to do with a Muslim society or a Christian one or Jewish one or whatever. It has to do with your mind and your mind alone!

I will meditate. Ok, calming down. Last thing: You say 520 testosterone is normal?
