“My libido has left the planet” is how one of my clients described her sex life. When we hit perimenopause and menopause there’s a lot going on… hormonal changes can be the tip of the iceberg.
The drop in oestrogen and androgens (our “male” hormones) can certainly impact us physically on many levels…but how about the fact that we’re simply exhausted. Sometimes we’re lucky enough to have the energy to walk the dog, let alone jump around in the sack.
It’s also not uncommon for our self confidence to take a hit… if we’re not loving what we’re seeing in the mirror it definitely affects how we might be feeling about ourselves right now. When that waistline is ever expanding, it doesn’t always lead to “let’s get naked!”
Today we talk about the physical, mental and emotional aspect of how our libido can be impacted and a few simple steps we can take to start feeling sexy again.
