When burning fat it's believed that the hormones stored in the fat are released into the blood stream. This, sort of, floods your system with a bunch of hormones, and can send your libido into overdrive! This doesn't usually last forever, and evens out after the hormones get regulated again. Can be either good, or bad, depending on your circumstances!
Hope this is the type of info you were seeking!

I asked this question somewhere not long ago! lol
I definitely noticed a difference and wondered if I was really odd - apparently not! Plenty of people posted back stating that they had the same experience... although a lot of them short lived and it evened out after a while.0 -

Protein can also influence hormone balance as well...say increasing protein uptake, increasing Sex Hormone Binding Globulin...binds to serum or "free"/active testosterone/estrogen. Implications in PCOS come to mind0
