Anaphrodisiac
An anaphrodisiac is something that makes the one who uses it less aroused. This can be a medicine,[1] a food or a procedure.[2] It is sometimes used to treat hypersexuals.[3] It is also used for an animal that is in heat.[4] Pills that lower the libido are sometimes called antaphrodisiacs.[5]
