Low libido on GLP-1s?

Hong Kong Yanpep International
Mine went the other way - libido actually picked up a few months in. Could be the weight, the blood sugar, just feeling better. Everyone reacts differently. Is the dose timing something you've adjusted?
 
the libido moving in the wrong direction for both partners simultaneously is the worst case version of the GLP-1 relationship dynamic - the reward circuit suppression that quiets food drive can extend to sexual drive for some people, and if both people in the relationship are on the medication, that effect compounds. it's worth raising with a prescribing doctor explicitly, since there are dose adjustments and supplemental approaches that can help
 
Yes, definitely affected, drive fades progressively until it's essentially gone. Another side effect involves increased irritability and anger most of the time, which in turn kills the partner's interest too, so both people end up affected by reduced intimacy.
