Low Sex Drive Treatment

Natural Treatment for Low Sex Drive in Women

At some point in almost every woman’s life she will experience a “low sex drive”. When this is temporary or only very occasional it usually isn’t anything to worry about. But when lack of libido is prolonged, it can seriously impact a woman’s relationship with her partner and her own quality of life.

There are numerous causes of lack of interest in sex. Some underlying reasons of low libido are physical while others are psychological. Loss of sex drive can also be due to medical issues or be the product of lifestyle factors. But regardless of the cause, the sensitive and personal nature of sexual interest can leave many women too embarrassed to seek help with the situation.

Women need to know that they do not have to suffer in silence and give up on sex! At Tutera Medical in Scottsdale, AZ we offer the most effective, all natural, women’s sex drive treatments available. In this article, the women’s anti-aging and sexual health experts at Tutera Medical outline some of the most common causes of a low libido and discuss the revolutionary new treatments we offer to rejuvenate women’s sex drive.

Causes of Low Sex Drive in Women

Lifestyle Causes of Low Sex Drive

For many women, low libido is the result of stress in their lives. Fortunately, a low sex drive caused by stress is usually temporary. Exercise, meditation, journaling or talking to a therapist are all means of alleviating stress and striking a better overall life balance.

Low Sex Drive Caused by Depression

Depression is one of the most common causes of loss of interest in sex. Seeking the help of a mental health care professional is essential. Any of our patients who are suffering from depression can contact the caring medical providers at Tutera Medical, who will gladly refer them to a therapist or psychiatrist.

Low Sex Drive Caused by Medication

Many medications – including those prescribed for depression (SSRIs like include Prozac, Lexapro, and Zoloft) – can come with the side effect of lowering a woman’s libido. Ask your psychiatrist or health care provider about what alternatives are available to you. For example, Wellbutrin and other non-SSRI antidepressants do not include a low sex drive as a side effect.

Low Sex Drive Caused by Vaginal Conditions

For many women, however, changes in the vagina caused by childbirth, aging, and the hormonal changes of menopause are the culprit when it comes to a loss of sex drive.

Just as the skin on the face ages, so does the tissue in the vagina. As the vaginal walls become lax, loose, thinner and more dry, sex becomes less pleasurable and even painful. This physical discomfort and loss of sensitivity often leads to a loss of sexual interest or motivation.

Low Sex Drive Caused by Hormonal Changes

Many women erroneously believe that a low libido is simply a natural part of getting older. But that isn’t exactly accurate. It is actually the hormone decline that comes with age that causes the sex drive to wane.

And in women, the decreasing estrogen levels that accompany menopause can result in vaginal dryness, itching, painful intercourse and low libido. But testosterone also plays a role! Most people think of testosterone as just a male hormone, but it is also produced by women’s bodies as well. And when testosterone levels decline in women, so does their interest in sex.

Natural Treatments for Low Sex in Women

At Tutera Medical in Scottsdale, AZ we offer two of the most advanced, state-of-the-art, 100% natural treatments to restore a woman’s sex drive. Viveve Radiofrequency Vaginal Rejuvenation and Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy (BHRT) can literally reverse the underlying effects of aging – so that a woman can once again enjoy a robust and satisfying sex life.

Hormone Therapy for Loss of Sex Drive

Decreased libido is most often the result of declining amounts of sex hormones in both women and men during menopause or andropause. Thankfully, hormone therapy can help restore sex drive and sexual pleasure in most women and men!

The most effective, safest, and most natural method of replacing declining or missing female hormones is with SottoPelle Method Bio-identical Hormone Replacement Pellet Therapy. Time-released, subdermal (under the skin) hormone pellets are implanted in our Scottsdale, Chandler, or Glendale, AZ office to steadily and consistently releases low doses of hormones for several months with a single insertion.

And, unlike the synthetic (man-made) hormones that are created in a laboratory, bioidentical hormone replacement pellets are derived from 100% natural plant-based sources. These bioidentical hormones contain the exact same molecular structure as the human body’s naturally produced hormones – so they are recognized and used by the body’s cells and organs.

By replacing and rebalancing declining sex hormones, SottoPelle hormone pellet therapy can help a man or woman enjoy an active and satisfying sex life at every age.

Viveve Vaginal Rejuvenation for Low Sex Drive

In addition to bioidentical hormone therapy, Tutera Medical in Scottsdale, AZ also offers state-of-the-art, non-surgical Viveve radiofrequency vaginal rejuvenation.

Viveve vaginal rejuvenation delivers safe, comfortable radiofrequency heat energy to the vaginal tissue. This stimulates renewed production of collagen and elastin to thicken and tighten vaginal walls, improving tightness and elasticity for improved stimulation. Additionally, Viveve improves blood flow to the vagina for increased sensitivity – and increases vaginal lubrication to eliminate painful dryness.

Viveve vaginal rejuvenation only takes 20 minutes to perform in our Scottsdale office. Only a single treatment is needed and there is no downtime afterwards. Within a few weeks, patients begin to see an improvement in vaginal comfort and sexual sensation that helps to restore the patient’s low sex drive to a healthy, functioning libido.
