Sexual health concerns get dismissed more than almost anything else in midlife care.
Low desire is usually the first thing waved off as "just stress." But it's rarely just one thing. Hormones, sleep, stress, and medications often shift together, which makes it easy to blame the wrong one.
Pain during s*x gets dismissed too, usually as "just age." It's often connected to declining estrogen, which makes vaginal tissue thinner, drier, and less elastic.
None of this is something to just live with, and you don't have to figure it out alone. Concierge Medicine of Cincinnati is here when you're ready.
