A variety of ailments such as diabetes, for example, can affect sexual responsiveness. Therefore, the first step in dealing with a sexual problem is to get a medical evaluation. A woman's vagina and surrounding tissues absorb considerable impact during intercourse which may account for conditions in the pelvic area that can make intercourse uncomfortable. If pain is a part of the problem, a gynecological exam is the first step.

Hormones are often involved when there has been a relatively sudden loss of interest. Sometimes this happens after hysterectomy with removal of the ovaries since they produce testosterone. Often, a woman's sex drive is restored when she is given testosterone. Our practice is well equipped to address various aspects of hormonal deficiency and treat them with the use of our techniques and own compounding pharmacy specializing in Bioidentical Hormonal Replacement Therapy.
