Answer:

Experts say the answer lies not so much in what your sex drive is, but whether or not it has reached its potential.  While everyone¡¯s level of desire is individual, it can also differ with each partner, and vary within a relationship, increasing or decreasing over time. 

Age can also alter sex drive, in men and women, and is usually linked to a decline in sex hormones. Moreover, there are a number of emotional and physical conditions, as well as medications, including some antidepressants, that can put a damper on desire.

If a physical problem causes sex drive to plummet -- such as erection difficulties in men, or painful intercourse in women -- and treatment is received, desire usually increases. If emotions are getting in the way, talking to a counselor or sex therapist can help. And sometimes, sex drive will recharge on it¡¯s own, as circumstances in your life change ¨C including the introduction of a new sex partner.
