Attachment Anxiety and Sexual Health

Complementary research conducted mostly with cisgender sexual minority men suggests that those who are high on anxious attachment-those most worried that people will not love them or find them good enough-are generally more likely to have anal sex without using a condom (Starks et al., 2017; Starks & Parsons, 2014). In other words, guys who are worried that a boyfriend or partner will think they are not good enough are more likely to agree to have sex "bareback."

Life Extension's bestselling Testosterone Elite is a non-hormonal dietary supplement that encourages healthy testosterone production in men using clinically studied proprietary ingredients-and it's recently been updated to include Bio-Luteolinâ„¢, which is up to 14x times more bioavailable than regular luteolin supplements* and has been shown in a clinical trial to promote healthy testosterone levels.
