Each of us has periods when nothing want — libido is at zero. This is normal, when everything, what you can do in bed, is to wrap up in a blanket, Munch on some biscuits and watch your favorite TV series.
But what if the extinct passion is not returned? The days turn into weeks and those into months, and you feel that cookies are still interested in you more than sex. Perhaps it’s not just your mood? That can kill your sex drive, although you don’t even know it?

If you feel that your libido is something wrong, discard the traditional binge drinking on Friday.
