After recovering from Covid-19 for nearly 4 months, he still can’t “close” his wife, many men are frustrated because “have not gone to the market, they have spent all their money”
Negative Covid-19 but positive for “bored love”
Recently, Hanoi Hospital of Andrology and Infertility has received many cases of patients visiting for symptoms of decreased libido and erectile dysfunction after contracting Covid-19.
Mr. H. (35 years old, Hanoi) although he has been cured of Covid-19 for a month, he still does not want to be close to his wife. Although the respiratory symptoms are not many and the recovery time is only 1 week. But the sequelae brought by Covid are not necessarily over. Mr. M. feels tired, less focused at work, no longer has the same desire as before.
After examining and doing tests, the results showed that his testosterone level was only 7.9 nmol/L (the normal range for Testosterone levels in men ranges between 10 – 28 nmol/L).
The man who lost his “sex” feeling after recovering from Covid-19
In the same situation, Mr. Minh (Thu Duc, Ho Chi Minh City) has been negative since the end of December 2021 but now has to face a new disease, which is “fear of love”. Specifically, he and his wife and two young children had COVID-19 but had mild symptoms, only fever, cough and sore throat. His wife and children became F0 first, he was later.
After 10 days of recovery, he found his body normal. However, in the following days, the couple’s sex life began to appear problems. He constantly fell into the state of “haven’t gone to the market, spent all the money”, “above told the bottom did not listen”…
Warning about hypogonadism in men after Covid-19
Men are 6 times more likely to have short-term or long-term erectile dysfunction after being infected with COVID-19, according to a study by American medical experts. Studies have also recorded many cases of men after being infected with COVID-19 affected their ability to have sex such as: Inability to have or maintain an erection, testicular damage, testicular pain or swelling, inability to achieve orgasm, low testosterone levels and mental health problems.
Men at high risk for sexual dysfunction after contracting COVID-19 are usually older men or those with high blood pressure, obesity, diabetes, and heart disease. There are many reports of young men experiencing sexual dysfunction after contracting COVID-19.
According to the American Urological Association’s definition, a testosterone level below 10 nmol/L with signs of decreased libido… is a typical manifestation of hypogonadism and requires an indication to use drugs to regulate testosterone hormone. Low testosterone, if not treated in time, will affect the whole body: mental sluggishness, fatigue, fat gain, muscle mass loss, osteoporosis, sexual dysfunction, reduced fertility…
Post-Covid-19 causes fatigue and decreased libido in men
Post-Covid-19 sequelae, if not paying attention to early examination and treatment, will also have many consequences, both in terms of mental health, sexual health and reproductive health. For those with pre-existing erectile dysfunction, it is more likely that the erection will be worse, along with the decreased sex drive. Even in previously healthy individuals, sexual dysfunction can occur. Over time, this condition affects the spirit, causing fatigue, frustration, depression, apathy, and even broken relationships.
Although there are no long-term studies, the SARS-CoV-2 virus has been found in sperm. It is hypothesized that the virus will reduce the density and total sperm count, decrease the survival rate, and increase the percentage of malformed sperm, thereby reducing the ability to conceive.
Therefore, if there are any symptoms such as decreased libido, decreased need for sex, poor erection, the patient should quickly go to the hospital to be examined, tested for post-Covid-19 sequelae to sex and reproductive.
