[QUOTE="madman, post: 75269, member: 13851"] Neurotransmitters play a strong role in libido especially dopamine. Dopamine has a positive effect on libido where as serotonin dampens libido. An imbalance in neurotransmitters whether due to genetics or drug abuse can kill the sex drive. Dr. Marino has an article stating that on trt in the beginning/honeymoon period there is a surge of dopamine in the brain which increases ones drive/libido but eventually as one reaches a steady state testosterone blood levels it actually desensitizes dopamine receptors over time as oppose to when one produce testosterone naturally with the peaks/valleys which also causes dopamine/other neurotransmitters to increase/decrease keeping the receptors sensitive to the natural highs/lows of testosterone. Dopamine is a neurotransmitter that you cannot keep constantly elevated as it will down regulate after some time due to the constant surge. I need to find article. I think balanced neurotransmitters play a strong role in one having a healthy libido. [/QUOTE]
