Understanding Low Libido: Root Causes and Solutions with Dr. Erin Kinney


Listen Later

Welcome back to the Dr. Kinney Show! In this solo episode, I’m diving into a topic that comes up often in my practice—low libido. Your sex drive is a window into your overall health, and when it’s low, it’s usually a sign that something deeper is happening in your body.

From hormone imbalances to stress and nutrient deficiencies, we’ll explore the physical and mental factors that can impact your libido. I’ll also share actionable tips on how to identify and address these issues so you can feel confident and vibrant again.

In Today’s Episode We Discuss:

  • Why libido is a key indicator of your health
  • The role of sex hormones like estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone in libido
  • How chronic stress impacts hormone balance and sex drive
  • The importance of cortisol and adrenal health
  • Thyroid function and its link to mood, energy, and libido
  • How internal stressors like stealth infections and nutrient deficiencies play a role
  • Practical tips for improving your sex drive and overall well-being

Low libido is more common than you think, and there’s no need to feel embarrassed about it. The good news is, it’s often a solvable issue once you uncover the root cause. If you’ve been struggling with your sex drive, this episode is packed with insights and solutions to help you get back on track.
