India is slowly seeing an alarming rise in obesity specifically within the youth and middle-age group.
While obesity can be linked to many metabolic disorders, one of the main physical disabilities it causes is sexual dysfunctions.
How does obesity affect your sexual desires:
1. Body Image - if looking into the mirror makes you feel less desirable, imagine how your mind reacts when your making love.
A unfavorable body image, creates a subconscious complex, which leads to decreased sex drive and poor sexual performance.
2. Diabetes - The biggest demon of modern life-style is diabetes. It's not only the sugar levels that increase in your blood that matter.. The blood vessels all over the body including the ones in your penis are affected. This eventually decreases blood supply to the penis, leading to decreased sexual performance.
3. Hormonal changes - Changes in weight can also mean changes in hormone levels, which can affect sex drive. All men convert testosterone (male sexual hormone) to another sex hormone called estradiol in our fat. And men who are overweight can get increased conversion. A decreased testosterone level further decreases sexual desires.
4. Stamina - Over-weight people have less stamina. As the blood requires more time to travel through the layers of fat, the sexual stamina decreases.
5. Sexual Stress - Even one episode of poor sexual performance can increase the stress in your mind by 200 times. A constant failure due to over-weight can create non-stopping restlessness and trigger a stress-cycle that further decreases sexual drive.
