It's important to approach concerns about sexual desire with care. Medications like anti-androgens or selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) may be prescribed in certain cases to help reduce sexual drive, but these should only be taken under the guidance of a healthcare professional. I recommend discussing your concerns with a doctor who can provide a personalized treatment plan.

I'm struggling with a porn addiction and I can't seem to stop. I do it about ten times a day and it's really starting to affect my life. I'm worried and I really need some advice from a medical perspective on how to overcome this. Can you help me out?

It's commendable that you're seeking help. Overcoming addiction takes time and support. I recommend talking to a therapist or counselor who specializes in addiction; they can guide you through strategies like cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT). Additionally, setting clear goals and reducing triggers gradually can also help you regain control.
