Low Libido

Low Libido

Zero interest? The decline in oestrogen and testosterone can reduce sexual appetite.

Vaginal dryness, atrophy and pain during sex don't help either.
Add insomnia, hot flushes, fatigue and weight gain… the perfect cocktail for a very romantic evening.

Is this normal?

Yes. Women are 2 to 3 times more likely to experience a decrease in sexual desire with age, so you are not alone. Many also report reduced sensitivity and difficulty reaching orgasm.

80% of women report a decrease in sexual desire during menopause.

What can you do?

  • Keep your intimate area hydrated with the Days Of Confidence Moisturising Intimate Balm, which helps restore comfort.
  • Communicate your needs and desires with your partner.
  • Try new forms of intimacy and pelvic floor exercises.
  • Reduce stress with yoga or mindfulness.
