			[[Hypoactive sexual desire disorder]] (HSDD), also known as low libido, is a condition characterized by a persistent or recurrent lack of interest in sexual activity, leading to personal distress or relationship difficulties. It is one of the most common sexual dysfunctions, affecting individuals of all genders, though it is more frequently reported in women. HSDD is classified in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-5) as a type of sexual dysfunction, and its diagnosis requires careful consideration of psychological, physiological, and relational factors.

			{{H2\|Definition and Classification}}
⚫	== See Also ==
			[[Hypoactive sexual desire disorder]] is defined by the DSM-5 as a deficiency or absence of sexual fantasies and desire for sexual activity, lasting at least six months, and causing significant personal distress. It is further categorized into two subtypes:
			- Lifelong HSDD: When the condition has been present since the onset of sexual activity.
			- Acquired HSDD: When the condition develops after a period of normal sexual desire.
			The disorder is distinct from other sexual dysfunctions, such as erectile dysfunction or female orgasmic disorder, and is often influenced by factors like hormonal imbalances, mental health conditions (e.g., depression), relationship issues, and lifestyle factors (e.g., stress, fatigue, or substance use).

			{{H2\|Causes and Contributing Factors}}
			The etiology of [[Hypoactive sexual desire disorder]] is multifactorial, involving biological, psychological, and social components:
			- Biological factors include hormonal changes (e.g., low testosterone in men, low estrogen in women), neurological conditions, and side effects of medications (e.g., antidepressants, antihypertensives).
			- Psychological factors may encompass anxiety, depression, trauma, or negative self-perception related to sexual performance.
			- Social and relational factors include relationship dissatisfaction, lack of intimacy, cultural or religious stigma, and communication barriers.
			Research suggests that HSDD is often a symptom of an underlying condition rather than an isolated issue, necessitating a holistic approach to diagnosis and treatment.

			{{H2\|Diagnosis and Assessment}}
			Diagnosing [[Hypoactive sexual desire disorder]] requires a comprehensive evaluation by a healthcare professional, including:
			- A detailed medical history to identify potential physical or psychological causes.
			- A sexual history to assess patterns of desire, arousal, and satisfaction.
			- Laboratory tests to rule out hormonal imbalances or other medical conditions.
			- Psychological assessments to evaluate mental health and relational dynamics.
			The DSM-5 emphasizes that HSDD should not be diagnosed if the lack of desire is due to a situational factor (e.g., a recent life stressor) or if the individual is in a relationship with a partner who has a sexual dysfunction.

			{{H2\|Treatment and Management}}
			Treatment for [[Hypoactive sexual desire disorder]] is tailored to the individual and may involve a combination of approaches:
			- Psychotherapy: Cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), sex therapy, or couples counseling can address psychological barriers, improve communication, and enhance intimacy.
			- Medications: Hormonal therapies (e.g., testosterone replacement for men, estrogen for women) or FDA-approved drugs like flibanserin (for premenopausal women) may be prescribed.
			- Lifestyle modifications: Managing stress, improving sleep, and addressing substance use can support overall sexual health.
			- Relational interventions: Strengthening emotional connections and fostering open dialogue with a partner are critical for long-term improvement.

			{{H2\|Impact on Quality of Life}}
			HSDD can significantly affect an individual’s self-esteem, relationships, and overall well-being. It may contribute to feelings of inadequacy, relationship strain, or isolation. However, with appropriate treatment, many individuals experience improved sexual function and quality of life. Open communication with a healthcare provider is essential to explore options and address concerns effectively.
