Hi,

Your spouse has decreased libido because of heavy alcohol drinking habit, obesity and high cholesterol. Your spouse's blood pressure also need to be checked. He can have metabolic syndrome problem. All that has to be corrected with medication.

Anti lipidemic drugs needs to be prescribed. Regular exercise and yoga will be beneficial in such case.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
