According to your symptom (lack of sex
drive), it seems that you might be
experiencing frigidity. It doesn’t seem
likely that frigidity is your greatest
problem, however. The greatest health
problem you seem to be experiencing right
now is diabetes and overweight. Diabetes
and overweight increase the risk for
cardiovascular (heart attack) and
cerebrovascular diseases (brain insult).
Lack of sexual drive could be one
consequence of these two serious
conditions. Further, reproductive age has
an impact on sexual drive. You can try to
decrease your body mass and control blood
sugar by asking for anti diabetic therapy.
You can also check your blood pressure and
blood fats at your GP's (general
practitioner) office.
