problems with sex & possible low T

I've posted before about my boyfriend & I thinking he may have low T...he is going to get tested when he gets ready but this is soooo frustrating!!! He drops hints every night so I know to go ahead & take my sleeping meds (hint u don't need to stay up late) I've finally stopped coming on to him but I don't know how to turn my erges off, not get upset or say anything..I'm 27 & I have the best sex drive now then ever..in a way I feel guilty bc I kno he's embarrassed but I don't know what to do with my self on this issue!

Even if he has a low libido and low sexual desire, it's not you.  There could be nothing medically wrong at all and he just isn't as into having sex as you.  this does happen.  You hear it the other way around, with the woman, more.  But men can be this way as well.

good luck

Well, again, I'm not sure if it is low testosteroe or low libido and I don't know if it is easily fixable.  Some people have low sex drives.  What i would do is tell him this is a 911 emergency because you don't want to stay in a sexless relationship.  But before you say the last part of that, you have to decide if that is true.  If he never wanted sex more----  would you want to be in this relationship?  

It is quite common that a couple has different sex drives.  it can cause problems with the relationship lasting long term.  This is something for you to think about.  

Then he either gets motivated to see if it is medically related with the possibility that it isn't and you two aren't a good match.  That's really the reality of it.

Try having sex first thing in the morning.  Traditionally that is when a lot of men naturally are ready for sex.  good luck
