I am HIV pos. and have been for four years. In the past six months I have not been very active. We are both getting Frustrated. Lack of sexual desire is fairly common among those living with HIV infection. There are multiple causes, starting with the stress or fear of transmission of the virus.
Some medications also result in low sexual drive or frank impotency too.
I'd certainly speak to your physician about these symptoms. Experts appearing on this page are independent and are solely responsible for editing and fact-checking their material.
