What are the components of libido?

I know that testosterone is one, but what are the others? I am a 38 y/o male. I took Anavar (Oxandrolone) twice for 3-4 day increments and it destroyed my libido. It has not come back in over a year. My testosterone is normal. My SHBG is a little low, but that's normal for me. It is not psychological or psychosomatic. I barely enjoy sex. This is not normal. Please somebody help. Please.

Projesterone is also necessary for libido. It is a female harmon. Testesteone and projesterone both are needed in the right proportion to get enhanced libido.For incresing libido there are exercise mostly based on breathing. you may google to fond the techniques. One of the popular and effective exercise is male deer exercise.

Sure, but I'm not necessarily talking about hormones. I'm asking what else effects libido besides testosterone?

Hormonal treatment is a tricky subject. Doctor who are handling such cases can do the treatment well. Besides medical you can do exercises as an adjunct therapy. Male deer exercise, kegel exercise, sag kriya. Abdominal exercise.Google these exercises. practice it for a long time.Research on sexual exercises. Google Breathe to orgasm. you will find many websites.It will take time to show the results.
