Dear Gods-Son,

No. Drinking iced-tea will not reduce a person's sex drive. People have different levels of sex drives — some have higher drives and some have lower — and often a person's sex drive can change over time.

A lot of things can affect our sex drives, including stress, how comfortable we are with our partners, past sexual experiences, if we feel safe, if we are attracted to our partners, drugs and medications, and many other factors in our lives.

If someone is really concerned about her or his lack of sexual desire it might be a good idea to talk to a clinician. To make an appointment at the nearest Planned Parenthood health center, call 1-800-230-PLAN.

Hope this information helps!

Take care,
