Male weight loss causing sexual apathy

Patient's question:

I have already weighed less than 250 pounds, because severe high blood pressure and high blood sugar have reappeared. Therefore, it has been about four months since I started, and I have been losing weight through running and controlling my diet. But I noticed that since the start of the diet, I have again experienced a lack of interest in sex. I would like to understand what should be done about a lack of interest in sex caused by male dieting?

Doctor's answer:

If men overeat, they may consume too much body fat in a short period of time, which can easily lead to malnutrition again. Moreover, sexual activity itself is a moderately intense activity. If the body is already weak due to rapid dieting, the quality of sexual life will be reduced. Over time, it may lead to a lack of confidence and an increased risk of sexual apathy. In such cases, it is necessary to control the speed of dieting and moderately manage diet to ensure nutrition. At the same time, it is important to stay active to maintain physical fitness. Additionally, if you have high blood pressure or high blood sugar, it is necessary to undergo re-examination, as these conditions are also common triggers for erectile dysfunction and premature ejaculation.
