Help them Get Help

You may want to get them to see a medical professional that will help them get over their issues. Programs like Craft Mens Clinic offer a lot of services for men with low testosterone. These services may be very helpful.

Educate yourself

So, your partner is feeling low, miserable, irritable and they seem to have no sexual interest whatsoever. It’s difficult not to blame yourself and worry that it’s you that’s the problem. But this is when anger and emotions run high and the medical reasoning behind your partner’s attitude becomes lost. Educating yourself on the symptoms of low testosterone and why they have the impact that they do will help you to understand why your partner is feeling this way. It can help you sympathize and place you both on the same page. When you know what they’re going through, you can help them more.

Go to relationship therapy

If you’re struggling to come to terms with the changes in your relationship, then all is not lost. Speak to a counsellor or head to relationship therapy instead. Speaking your mind in a controlled environment will help both of you vent any frustrations and create a level of understanding on both sides.

Communicate

Now is not the time to bottle up your frustrations and your feelings. Getting things out in the open will help you both through this tricky period. Take some time each week to talk candidly about your feelings and check in with each other. You’ll both feel great afterwards.

Experiment sexually

Your partner’s libido is currently suffering, which means you can also feel a little lonely. Instead of being frustrated at your partner, try something new instead. Being intimate with each other doesn’t always mean having sex. It can mean massages, kissing, touching or even enjoying deep, heartfelt conversations that will bring you closer together and strengthen your relationship even more.

Show your support

Doctors visits, hospital appointments, and therapy sessions. Simply being present at any appointments and showing your support will go a long way in strengthening your relationship and helping your partner through this difficult time.

Conclusion

Being supportive of your partner can make a big difference in their journey of low testosterone. Try these tips to help.
