Dopamine, serotonin, and oxytocin all play a role in libido, too,” explains Justin Houman, M.D., a urologist in Los Angeles who specializes in men’s sexual and reproductive health.

Psychological factors like stress and anxiety can lower a person’s libido, no matter how robust their levels of testosterone, estrogen, or any other biological element may be. So can social factors, like relationship troubles.
If you’re not jazzed about your partner, or how things are going between the two of you, then even if you’re biologically pristine you may not have as much desire for sex as you used to. Even personal beliefs or values about sex and relationships can have a top-down effect on our bodies. If, say, you believe sex outside of marriage is a dire sin and you’ll be damned to hell if you pursue it, your raging hormones may not matter all that much.

The effect of any of these factors, much less the interplay between them, within any unique body and mind, is hard to calculate. Stress and anxiety are big libido killers for many people, for example, but for others, they lead to a spike in sexual desire—and we’re not entirely sure why.

Libido is very complex, and definitely poorly understood,” stresses Sun. So it's often far harder to treat sex drive issues than banner ads for testosterone treatments often seem to suggest.
