Common mistakes
Not natural: I have many libido.
Better: I have a high libido.
Use high or low to describe libido; many is used with countable plural nouns.

Not natural: The medicine made my libido to drop.
Better: The medicine made my libido drop.
After made plus an object, use the verb's base form without to.
Made के बाद object आए, तो अगले verb का मूल रूप इस्तेमाल करें; उसके पहले to नहीं लगता।
