She makes me feel bad for wanting to have sex or some kind of physical intimacy. I am high earner and take care of all the finances at home, trips, nice dinners and anything else needed for her comfortable stay. She’s reluctant for HRT since it has cancer risk. I would like to know what are the chances of her drive to improve from HRT or is it a dead end for us?
The difference is:
- the ring, the promise/ lifelong-commitment it represents, and children.
Your libido-less girlfriend has none of those. And now she has taken your sex-life off the negotiating table? Dump her.
Dump her and find someone younger with an intact libido.
However, my answer would be the opposite for a married wife, especially if there are innocent children involved.
In that case, yes: HRT and specifically low-dose testosterone (or “T”) will fix most peri and menopausal wives’ disappearing libido problems.
T also works wonders for menopausal fatigue and brain-fog symptoms.
