Why Libido Fades in Menopause and The Hormone Fix Most Doctors Miss | Jennifer Gularson
Is your missing sex drive just part of getting older? I'm joined by Jennifer Gularson, a women's midlife health and hormone expert, to explain why libido fades in perimenopause and menopause, and the solutions available for women.
We cover testosterone dosing and the pros and cons of creams, injections, and pellets. We also get into why oral progesterone can change your sleep and stress, and how high cortisol pulls resources away from your sex hormones.
Jennifer explains how vaginal estrogen improves comfort and helps prevent recurring UTIs, and why feeling safe matters so much for desire. We also look at metabolism, microdosed GLP-1s, sleep hygiene, and fast-acting options.
