In summary, there are medicines available to slow down the libido, but they may produce side effects. Cold showers have also been suggested as a solution. However, chemical castration using medication is not recommended. It is best to consult with a veterinarian for advice on how to address this issue with a pet.

Cold showers used to work. Take one as often as necessary.

Welcome to the PF.

Sorry, but your reply makes no sense. Do you have a reference link you can post to describe what you are saying?

Wait, is this about your cat? (I just saw your other thread in the Medical forum)

If so, you need to talk with a veterinarian about this, not to get advice on an Internet forum about how to medicate your cat. Thread is closed.
