What Causes Lack Of Sexual Desire Post Hernia Surgery?

My husband had this hernia surgery a year and a half ago and has had a serious lack of labido since, we have only had sex once since the surgery, he says he just doesn t have the urge anymore and is very unhappy about this. There were no complications with the surgery or his recovery but he does sometimes get a numbness around his scar , he is 43 yrs old and has never had any other serious health problems, and our sex life before was very healthy. Is there anything that can be done please ?

HI
He needs his testosterone levels check since low libido can be from low testosterone

Other things to be checked out would be depression and low thyroid
