Inside the Cure with Dr. Charles Mok

Female Sexual Wellness Explained: Menopause, HRT & Libido


Listen Later

When hormones decline, intimacy can start to feel like a chore—but it doesn’t have to. In this conversation, we break down what’s really happening during perimenopause and menopause, and how hormone therapy for low libido can support sexual wellness without shame or confusion.

We discuss how hormonal shifts affect arousal, sensitivity, vaginal dryness, and pleasure, and why many women see improvements with personalized hormone therapy using estrogen, progesterone, and/or testosterone.

We also explore additional in-office treatments for women who need more support beyond hormones, including PRP-based therapies, targeted injections, and non-surgical wellness technologies designed to improve comfort and function.

If you’re considering HRT for low libido, or you’re already on hormone therapy but still don’t feel like yourself, this episode helps you understand your options and find what fits your body and goals.
