I found this on the web. Perhaps it is a partial explanation.
The Chemistry Behind Sex
The orgasm pleasure is fascillitated through stimulation of the endorphins/opiate receptors. The libido itself is stimulated by dopamine and noradrenal receptors (Provigil boosts libido) and inhibited with serotonin receptors (SSRI's can inhibit libido). Things that can increase libido are NA-Agonists, Zinc, P5P and B12. Things that can reduce libido are SSRI's and anything that can clog NA receptors such as heavy metals and H2S (hydrogen sulfide caused by fermentation of sugar in gut by bad yeast or bacteria). Things that make H2S worse and therefore reduce libido are bad bacteria or yeast in gut, and the sugar they ferment. Therefore, less sugar consumption, in some people with this condition, boosts libido.
