In this segment of her YouTube video, Dr. Anne Truong MD outlines the primary contributors to low libido. She explains that low sex drive can stem from a range of lifestyle and mental‑health factors such as distraction, anxiety, depression, over‑working, fatigue, and especially poor sleep. She emphasizes that when sleep‑deprived or mentally strained, individuals are less likely to feel sexual desire. Dr. Truong also notes that, beyond these behavioral influences, low testosterone levels represent a physiological condition that can further diminish libido. The overall message links mental, behavioral, and hormonal domains as key drivers of reduced sexual drive.
