How important is cortisol in male libido?
Just been reading through Wikipedia and it lists cortisol alongside estrogen and testosterone as the three main hormones responsible for sexual desire.

I'm interested in an easy explanation of this subject as well, opeing someone does not cut and paste pages of information.

What Iv found so far its the fight flight and stress hormone, high levels of cortisol lower dopamine and serotonin, also causes paranoia, loss off libido / zero libido, interestingly anti depressant SSRI medications significantly increase cortisol which explains why SSRI's kill libido, I can successfully raise my hand to displaying all of the above symptoms.

Good question.
Like all things hormonal it's not just all about one hormone but a healthy balance across all pathways and serum levels.
Generally speaking; Cortisol is best mid range...too high or too low and it's a bad place with many neg sides.

How closely would you guys link loss of libido to erectile dysfunction?, I would have thought of them as been quite separate like your penis just reacts to feeling horny., thinking about trying cialis for long term use, impotence is no fun feel like I'm missing out on my main biological purpose/drive in life.

I think libido is very separate from ED. Most men who think they have ED is more just loss of interest be it chemical/hormone related or situational such as environment being in a bad or uninterested marriage. I have never suffered ED (thank god) but I have had loss of libido do to no interest in someone because of emotional situations. Cialis and Viagra will do nothing to fix libido especially if it's a physiological issue.
Point in case take most any 80+ yr old male who has been married for 40+ years who says they have no interest in sex and take them to a strip club and buy them a few table dances from some hot little 18yr old hard body and see if he has any interest/libido at that point.

LOL, no I honestly got to know one pretty well and she was not P4P and one night after hooking up with one of her friends they decided to call a 3rd over for to add to the fun. It was mid cycle so I had no problem staying involved and they needed a 3rd for help.
I have had a couple over there who were fine with sharing. Not so much with my current one though, she keeps a sharp knife under her pillow. lol
I even have a couple who are still FB friends.
Now these were a little different. Thai and I $20 for the taxi ride home in the next morning. lol The 3rd one is taking the picture. I didnt think about getting a picture with all 3.Last edited by lovbyts; 07-17-2012 at 05:57 AM.

LOL, I'm just trying to help out fellow members who are having libido issues. Yeah nothing like a nice new young hard body female rubbing on you to cure most any libido issue.
This one is my best picture (besides the videos and nudes I cant post) so far. I would frame this one but the wife would kill me.

Looks like it's time for a vacation to give you a boost. Trust me a trip to Thailand or Philippines will do you wonders.
Another example, this is what I looked like 1 week before my 1st trip to Thailand.
This is what I looked like less than 3 years later.
Unfortunately it's not exactly accurate for current but not that far off especially considering 2 eye surgeries and 1 shoulder surgery in the last 1 1/2 years + a lot more STUFF...Last edited by lovbyts; 07-18-2012 at 06:50 AM.

^^^Sucks when medical and injury keep you out of the gym!
Shit lovebyts, I just finished up a killer half sleeve last Friday night and the healing on the inside of my armpit is not done yet enough to hit the gym the past few days and it's already killing me!
If you look even 75% of that 2nd pic you're killing it man
