Hi again immscared,

Can the issue of sex and sexuality get anymore confusing? I believe that one can overcome sexual aversion with the help of a therapist, a sex therapist, or even perhaps on one's own.

I haven't an aversion to sex. I just lack any interest or enjoyment in it whatsoever. I have been this way for about 4 years now and have no idea as to why.

As for testosterone, I did have my levels checked and did learn that my levels were quite low. I am now on a bio-identical testosterone cream that is applied once daily. I also have low progesterone which is replaced with bio-identical progesterone cream.

I do know that my endocrine system is not "right". However, I have no idea if this causes my total disinterest and total lack of enjoyment. Never in my life did I think that I would have this issue as I used to enjoy a very healthy sex life and would daydream about sex and enjoyed the anticipation of fun times to be. Now, I feel like I am in total lack and somewhat of a freak of nature.

Obviously, I have total sexual disfunction. I am hoping that the testosterone cream will work but I have to admit that I often forget to apply it so I have a little bit of work to do in that area. Otherwise, I will never know if the testosterone will bring me back to life, so to speak. The endocrinologist told me that it takes as long as 6 months to know if the dose is working.

Here is to hoping that we both find our answers and peace with ourselves.
