I too don't understand in what context the question is being ask. Did you want to decrease your (or her) libido? Or has it decreased and you're wondering why?
All of things above can decrease libido. Self-image, hormones, weight gain or loss, illness or stress and any number of medications. If you want to know, ask.
If you're looking to decrease your libido, I'd have to ask why? Is it because you don't want to masturbate while having active sex with a partner? It's very rare for two people to have exactly the same sex drive and need sex exactly the same amount. It's perfectly normal for one or both partners to masturbate while in a relationship, even daily. So long as it's not interfering with the actual sex life, it's not really an issue. Or is there some other reason?
Really, the most effective means of taking care of your libido is to just take care of it. I have not yet in my life met someone who is so busy that they can't take 20 minutes out of their day and I know some extremely busy people. What better reason for a 20 minute study break than your own sanity by way of jerkin the gherkin? It relieves stress, helps you relax, feels good, gets your mind off of your problems briefly, feels good, takes care of your desires (instead of just suppressing them) and feels really good. Don't you owe it to yourself?
