Suggest Treatment For Low Libido In A 22 Year Old Woman

I am a 22 year old woman who s never had a sex drive or any feeling in the genital area. I ve also never had romantic feelings for anyone. I ve kissed people and get lubricated but that s it. I first asked a doctor about this when I was 16 and she said it was psychological. Then I worked with a therapist and she said it isn t, it s medical. I took Addyi but it didn t work. What do I do this is distressing

Hi,

Low Libido in females can be due to
1. Infections
2. Diabetes, hypertension
3. Hormonal disturbances- Low testosterone, low levels of thyroid, high levels of prolactin
4. Obesity
5. High cholesterol
6. Chronic disease
7. Drugs
8. Anxiety

Need to do vaginal examination by a Gynecologist to rule out local infection, USG Pelvis to rule out Pelvis infection and ovaries and uterus abnormalities, Thyroid checkup Free T3 T4 TSH, Lipid Profile to know cholesterol level, Blood Pressure, RBS.

If all the things check out negative, you need to start experimenting and explore yourself or with a partner and find which way you can get an orgasm (will take time), considering your age won't be an issue.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. S.R.Raveendran, Sexologist
