6. Depression
In conformity with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, it has been found that one in 20 Americans over 12 years old has a form of depression. Although this can develop in people at any age, it also has an impact when it comes to romantic lives.
Women can feel insecure and less worthy, which can lead to intimate problems, such as physical factors that can make “bedroom time” less enjoyable, even painful or unpleasant. In addition to that, having lower levels of estrogen means that the process of natural lubrication can be affected as well.
When it comes to men, depression can make them feel anxious and insecure, with low self-esteem. According to the National Institute of Mental Health, men that have depression are more likely to develop ED and also, they can lose interest in certain activities, including intercourse.
