[QUOTE="Mountain Man, post: 193609, member: 14411"] You have no sex drive due to the psychotropic medications and the low range testosterone. Those are quite a few medications. Whoever is prescribing them should have suggested a good therapist and some cognitive behavioral therapy. This is more than likely what’s killing your libido. A PCP or even a psychiatrist should have started there with you rather than all those medications. That’s where you need to start, weaning off some and hopefully all these medications while adding some CBT interventions. Do not come off these alone, as it is dangerous. Have a psychiatrist help, one that believes in psychotherapy. There is no magic pill for you and throwing testosterone into this mix of psychotropic meds is not the answer. You will need to commit to a program that includes CBT, solid sleep, good diet, and exercise. You’re at an age where you are settling into the habits that can make or break the rest of your life. Do this now and don’t short change yourself or your wife by taking the lazy way out and throwing more meds into the mix. Get off everything and see what your baseline is. Judiciously add meds as a last resort. Meds, and even TRT, should not be the go to strategy. [/QUOTE]
