A member asked:

How does high blood pressure decrease levels of testosterone in your body and limit your sex drive?

No: Hypertension does not affect your testosterone level, whether it can affect sex-drive is more speculative.

High blood pressure: does not directly affect levels of testerone. On the other hand, testosterone does influence blood pressure. See this article: http://innovativemen.com/testosterone-and-high-blood-pressure/
