Low desire is not a problem if you think it's fair to hold your partner to monogamy while depriving him/her of your cooperation with it. Building a protective wall around your relationship also implies a commitment to supply the marriage with an internal source of nourishment. The walls of monogamy are a prison cell otherwise. Fidelity isn't just about vowing to avoid sexual contact with others, it's also about not cheating your partner.
If low desire partners are trying not to force semi-celibacy on their spouses but are having trouble with their own body, then why wouldn't they try medication as one part of a possible solution?
