Husband always tired and lazy

Hello. My husband and I have been married for 5 years now, have been together for a total of 7 years,  and I notice that as the years go by he is getting more and more tired and lazy. We make plans to do simple things like getting our papers together for our taxes and he just groans and says he will do it later. Only when he sees im upset and going in the office to do it myself, he joins in. We both do the same job and on our days off he sleeps for a while and when he gets up he wants to watch tv all day. I'm the kind of person who likes to have plans on the weekends and sometimes when I ask him what our plans are he says "does there have to be a plan?" Or "can we just watch tv?" We also don't have sex much, probably once a month and I usually have to initiate it. Ive even lost interest in it myself now. i know he masturbates a lot, we had a large bottle of lube and it is already gone. A few days ago he admitted that he might have a problem and that he might have low testosterone. He said he would try and find a doctor but of course on the days that he's off he feels like he shouldn't have to do anything because he's too tired. Could it be low T? I'm 31 and he will be 40 in May.

Hi,
   First of all I think he should go for a general medical check up with a physician and confirm he has no health issues with liver, thyroid, circulatory system etc. If he is giving all his energy to his office, may be he is mentally tired by the time he reaches home, and in that case, some programs for relaxing the body and the mind is required, like visiting a friend's house, going for an evening walk etc. Even if he prefers to watch TV , join him with some home made health drinks and snacks.

When you say he masturbates a lot in preference to sex, reason for the same may have to be thought about. Do you tend to criticize him too often? Find out in which way you can help him and support him. Some kind of combined counseling for both of you with an expert might be helpful.

These are quite common issues when both partners are employed and often mutual understanding and adjustments are all that is required for a happy married life.

Good luck,
Solace

Hi Katie, OK two things that might help him are DHEA a hormone, and Triblus a herb, they both run along the same lines, and will help boost him up, DHEA please read up about this first as it can have the odd funny side effects with the odd person, and Tribulus will take 8 weeks to get to full power, at the end of the 8 weeks cut both back to 5 days out of 7, they both should boost his testosterone, lift his lidido and kick up his enegy levels, now pot him on some Cayenne as well to bring him some heat down below, and clean his blood, it cleans any plaque out of it, this should make him fill better, does me, I take all three, DHEA start low does say two 25mgs a day, morning and night along wirh the Tribulus, see how he goes, now the Cayenne he can either have capsules, or like me I take powder mixed in tomato paste thinned with olive oil, do this to a heat that suits him, as he goes on he can take it hotter, he needs to have 3 small spoonfuls 3 times a day.
See how you go.
Good Luck
