Before you book
Common, and usually explainable
Falling estrogen around menopause thins vaginal tissue, which causes dryness and pain with sex. Low desire can follow hormones, medications, mood, sleep or relationship strain, often several at once. A provider sorts out which, so treatment targets the cause rather than the label.
When to book
When changes in desire or comfort bother you.
- Vaginal dryness or pain with sex
- Low desire that is new or distressing
- Recurrent urinary symptoms after menopause
- Sexual changes alongside hot flashes or poor sleep
What commonly sits behind low libido and dryness
More than one is often at work.
Hormones. Estrogen and testosterone both change around menopause.
Medications. Some antidepressants and other medicines lower desire.
Sleep and mood. Both affect desire and are part of the evaluation.
The options
Vaginal estrogen. A low-absorption cream for dryness, painful sex and recurrent urinary symptoms.
Systemic hormone therapy. Estradiol and progesterone when broader menopause symptoms are part of the picture.
Testosterone cream. For distressing low desire after menopause, once other causes are addressed.
PT-141. A peptide used for libido, available as a vial or nasal spray.
How a visit works
