How can I cope when my libido is much higher than his?

Question - (7 July 2010) 3 Answers - (Newest, 8 July 2010)
A female South Africa age 36-40, anonymous writes:

He is 35 and I'm 23! Sex when we do it is so mind blowing, problem is I am more sexual than he is, it's like I want it all the time, with him we can go a week but I can't do it that way, I'm now sexually frustrated... honestly if I start kissing or touching him he pushes me away, there is nothing that hurts like being turned off, I'm really not happy at all sexually, everything else is great, it's just our sex life. Could it be his age? I'm thinking of telling him how I feel but I'm afraid to ofend him... What should I do?

Also, progesterone supplementation should be short term, like 30 days, or until his thyroid is working properly.

I forgot to mention to test for prolactin as well. It can be another sign of hypothyroidism. If prolactin is high, he won't feel like having sex.

A male reader, anonymous, writes (8 July 2010):

If he hasn't always been like this, ask him to check out his thyroid with a blood test: TSH, T4, cortisol, testosterone, estradiol, DHEA, HbA1c, cholesterol, iron, vitamin D3.

The test may point out other things, but if he is hypothyroid (even if TSH is on the higher end of the range) or just has highish cortisol (both are common problems), ask him to try 10mg progesterone cream each day, and increase his DHEA (if lowish) by folowing Dr. Norman Shealy's protocol of 2g vitamin C, 1g MSM, 6mg beta glucans, and transdermal magnesium chloride.

If nothing else is physically off, then optimising his hormones may do the trick.
