Rejuvime Medical • September 30, 2024

In this informative video, Amy Patterson breaks down the important connection between hormones and libido.

Hormones and libido, what you need to know. Hormones play an essential role in your health, especially when it comes to libido. Let’s explain how hormones influence your sexual wellness. Hormones like testosterone, estrogen, and progesterone are central to regulating your libido. These hormones control everything from desire to arousal to sexual satisfaction. Testosterone is often linked to libido for both men and women. However, estrogen and progesterone can also affect libido, especially for women. They can affect both mood and physical readiness. When hormones are out of balance, it can lead to changes in libido. This might manifest as decreased desire, difficulty with arousal, and other sexual health issues, like vaginal dryness and erectile dysfunction. Common factors that lead to hormonal imbalance can be age, stress, and then lifestyle. Symptoms can include low energy, mood swings, and decreased sexual interest. Now, here’s the good news. This can be treated with HRT. Here at Rejuvime Medical, we specialize in hormone health. Our personalized approach ensures that your treatment plan is personalized to your unique needs.
