Sex drive is related to urological health and sexual well-being. Low sex drive is seen in patients suffering from various disorders like obesity, diabetes, obstructive sleep apnea, and chronic kidney disease. Oxidative stress and excessive inflammation related to those diseases are responsible for lower testosterone levels in the body and low sexual drive. Also, endothelin formed due to inflammation is associated with erectile dysfunction and less penile tumescence (spontaneous erection of the penis)
