Libido is a person's overall sexual drive or desire for sexual activity. Libido is influenced by biological and social factors. Biologically, the sex hormones and associated neurotransmitters that act upon the nucleus accumbens regulate libido in humans. Social factors, such as work and family, internal psychological factors, such as personality and stress, can affect libido. Libido can be affected by medical conditions, medications and relationship issues, age. A person who has frequent or a increased sex drive may be experiencing hypersexuality, while the opposite condition is hyposexuality. A person may have a desire for sex, but not have the opportunity to act on that desire, or may on personal, moral or religious reasons refrain from acting on the urge. Psychologically, a person's urge can be sublimated. Conversely, a person can engage in sexual activity without an actual desire for it. Multiple factors affect human sex drive, including stress, illness and others. A 2001 review found. Sexual desires are an important factor in the formation and maintenance of intimate relationships in humans.

A lack or loss of sexual desire can adversely affect relationships. Changes in the sexual desires of any partner in a sexual relationship, if sustained and unresolved, may cause problems in the relationship; the infidelity of a partner may be an indication that a partner's changing sexual desires can no longer be satisfied within the current relationship. Problems can arise from disparity of sexual desires between partners, or poor communication between partners of sexual needs and preferences. Sigmund Freud, considered the originator of the modern use of the term, defined libido as "the energy, regarded as a quantitative magnitude... of those instincts which have to do with all that may be comprised under the word'love'." It is the instinct energy or force, contained in what Freud called the id, the unconscious structure of the psyche. He explained that it is analogous to hunger, the will to power, so on insisting that it is a fundamental instinct, innate in all humans. Freud developed the idea of a series of developmental phases in which the libido fixates on different erogenous zones—first in the oral stage in the anal stage in the phallic stage, through a latency stage in which the libido is dormant, to its reemergence at puberty in the genital stage.

Freud pointed out that these libidinal drives can conflict with the conventions of civilised behavior, represented in the psyche by the superego. It is this need to conform to society and control the libido that leads to tension and disturbance in the individual, prompting the use of ego defenses to dissipate the psychic energy of these unmet and unconscious needs into other forms. Excessive use of ego defenses results in neurosis. A primary goal of psychoanalysis is to bring the drives of the id into consciousness, allowing them to be met directly and thus reducing the patient's reliance on ego defenses. Freud viewed libido as passing through a series of developmental stages within the individual. Failure to adequately adapt to the demands of these different stages could result in libidinal energy becoming'dammed up' or fixated in these stages, producing certain pathological character traits in adulthood, thus the psychopathologized individual for Freud was an immature individual, the goal of psychoanalysis was to bring these fixations to conscious awareness so that the libido energy would be freed up and available for conscious use in some sort of constructive sublimation.

According to Swiss psychiatrist Carl Gustav Jung, the libido is identified as the totality of psychic energy, not limited to sexual desire. As Jung states in "The Concept of Libido," " denotes a desire or impulse, unchecked by any kind of authority, moral or otherwise. Libido is appetite in its natural state. From the genetic point of view it is bodily needs like hunger, thirst and sex, emotional states or affects, which constitute the essence of libido." The Duality creates the energy of the psyche, which Jung asserts expresses itself only through symbols: "It is the energy that manifests itself in the life process and is perceived subjectively as striving and desire." These symbols may manifest as "fantasy-images" in the process of psychoanalysis which embody the contents of the libido, otherwise lacking in any definite form. Desire, conceived as a psychic longing, movement and structuring, manifests itself in definable forms which are apprehended through analysis. Defined more narrowly, libido refers to an individual's urge to engage in sexual activity, its antonym is the force of destruction termed mortido or destrudo.

Libido is governed by activity in the mesolimbic dopamine pathway. Dopamine and related trace amines that modulate dopamine neurotransmission play a critical role in regulating libido. Other neurotransmitters and sex hormones that affect sex drive by modulating activity in or acting upon this pathway include: Testosterone – and other androgens Estrogen – and related female sex hormones Progesterone Oxytocin Serotonin Norepinephrine Acetylcholine A
