Sometimes it's just TOO much of a good thing.

Does your partner want to have sex all the time? There are natural remedies to help curb his sex drive. A group of herbs and essential oils called anti-aphrodisiacs will get the job done.

Anti-aphrodisiacs work in the limbic system of the brain causing chemical changes in the hormones which may help your partner decrease his addiction to sex. The essential oils can just be inhaled to produce their effects. It takes less than 30 seconds for the therapeutic properties of essential oils to take effect.

So, how do you get your partner to smell these scents? One of the easiest ways is to wear them. A little dab on your pulse points will be enough to trigger his limbic system to desire less sex. Another way is to put a little essential oil on a cotton ball and put it under his pillow or anywhere he likes to have sex.

Herbs, if taken on a regular basis, will reduce your partner's sex drive as well. If you can get your partner to drink a tea, that is great, but it might be easier to have him take it in the pill form. The herbs take a little longer to work, but are well worth the wait. Here are five anti-aphrodisiac oils and herbs:

1. Camphor essential oil.

Monks use this scent to keep them from desiring sex when they are trying to be chaste. One easy way to use this is to rub a "cold and flu" chest rub on you.

2. Marjoram essential oil.

In some studies marjoram essential oil has been shown to decrease the libido in mice.

3. Chaste tree berries.

These berries will reduce testosterone in men, whether taken in a tea or pill form. In the Middle Ages, European monks would drink a tea made with these berries to decrease their sexual desire. The downside is that chaste tree berries need to be taken for six weeks for their full effect to manifest.

4. Hops.

In a tea or in beer, hops decreases libido in men by increasing their estrogen levels for short periods of time. It takes about three beers to start decreasing their sexual desire. Less than three will not do the trick. So, try brewing a hops tea or place a small bag of hops under your partner's pillow to help reduce desire.

5. Saw palmetto berries.

The hero in the battle against enlarged prostates, these berries work by decreasing testosterone and increasing estrogen. This shift in hormones will make a man less likely to want to have sex and more likely to come home and cuddle.
