A short educational YouTube video by Anne Truong MD (uploaded Aug 30, 2022) explaining common reasons for low sexual desire — stress, overwork, relationship issues, painful sex, and limited sexual education. The speaker emphasizes that pain during sex is a major cause of avoidance and low desire, and suggests education can improve self-perception and sexual wellbeing.

I believe that most of low desire is really something else. It's either you're stressed, you're overworked, the relationships on the rocks, you're having bad sex to begin with. You have pain with sex. I saw a lady, she's like, I have pain with sex, and I have low desire. I'm like, no, you just have pain with sex. You never desire painful things, right? You don't desire putting your hand on a hot stove. You're gonna avoid it. That's neuroscience. But I find that most people's stress with sex is just a basic lack of education about the stuff. And once you educate them, they certainly start feeling a little better about themselves.
