Low libido is one of the most common things women mention in my practice — and one of the most dismissed.

‘It’s just stress.’ ‘It’s normal after kids.’ ‘It’s just your age.’

Sometimes, yes. But often it’s hormonal.

Testosterone, estrogen, progesterone, and cortisol all influence desire, sensation, and energy. When any of them are imbalanced, libido is one of the first things to go.

You deserve to feel like yourself again.

These symptoms are so common they’ve become normalized — but common doesn’t mean inevitable. Each one on this list can be a sign of a hormone imbalance that is identifiable and addressable. If 3 or more resonate with you, a comprehensive hormone evaluation is worth pursuing. Your quality of life depends on it.

One thing many women don’t realize is that menopause hormone therapy isn’t just about relieving symptoms.

You DON’T have to be suffering from hot flashes or night sweats to be a candidate for estrogen.

Estrogen is FDA-approved to help prevent osteoporosis in postmenopausal women.

That means protecting your bones can be a reason to consider menopause hormone therapy—even if you’re not experiencing bothersome menopausal symptoms.

Strong bones today can mean fewer fractures and greater independence later in life.

Talk with a healthcare provider to determine whether hormone therapy is appropriate for your individual health history.
