How
To Know If A Woman Has A Low Sex Drive
There
is a new test released this month from The Journal of Sexual
Medicine, which may help you to determine if you have a low
sex drive. The
entire test consists of the following questions that women answer
with either a Yes or No:
-
In
the past was your level of sexual desire or interest good
or satisfying to you?
-
Has
there been a decrease in your level of sexual desire or interest?
-
Are
you bothered by your decreased level of sexual desire or interest?
-
Would
you like your level of sexual desire or interest to increase?
-
Please
check all the factors that you may feel may be contributing
to your current decrease in sexual desire or interest:
-
An
operation, depression, injuries or other medical condition
-
Medication, drugs or alcohol you are currently taking
-
Pregnancy,
recent childbirth, menopausal symptoms
-
Other
sexual issues you may be having such as pain, decreased arousal
or orgasm
-
Your
partner’s sexual problems
-
Dissatisfaction
with your relationship or partner
-
Stress
or fatigue
If a woman
says “No” to any of the questions in 1-4, then she does not
qualify for the diagnosis of generalized acquired low sexual
function.
If the
women answers “Yes” to questions 1-4 and “No” to the factors
in question 5, then she may have generalized acquired low sexual
desire.
