Low libido recently despite regular training and decent diet is this normal?

Male, 65 kg, training regularly (5–6 days lifting + ~8k steps daily). Diet is mostly clean with enough protein (~120–130 g/day) and calories around maintenance/slight surplus.

I’ve noticed my libido feels lower than expected recently. No major health issues otherwise.

Trying to understand possible reasons:

Can calorie level (maintenance vs slight deficit/surplus) affect libido?

Does training frequency or fatigue impact it?

Can carb intake influence libido?

Is this something people experience during recomposition/early training phases?

Also im taking vitamin d3 60k IU per week, and 150 mg elemental magnesium daily at night.

Looking for inputs from people who have experienced something similar.
