Question: Is it permissible for a man to take certain medications to reduce the desire for sexual intercourse?
Answer: There is nothing wrong with that, but it is not permissible for him to take what cuts it off entirely; as for reducing it, there is nothing wrong with it because of the clear benefit in that. The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) informed us that fasting reduces desire, in his saying (peace and blessings be upon him):Sunan an-Nasa'i 3208Sahih (Darussalam).

The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) informed us that fasting reduces desire, in his saying (peace and blessings be upon him):
Whoever among you can afford it, let him get married, and whoever cannot then he should fast, for it will be a restraint (wija') for him.
