Sexual Desire Q & A

What is sexual desire?

Sexual desire refers to your need for intimacy. It’s a normal state-of-being that may fluctuate based on your physical and emotional health, as well as your relationship status.

Both men and women experience fluctuations in sexual desire. While desire is often linked to an emotional state, in some instances a lack of sexual desire may stem from a physical cause.

The team at Viva Life Health Hub specializes in sexual desire and provides counseling and treatment to improve libido.

What can affect my sexual desire?

There are many possible issues that may affect your sexual desire, including your past sexual experience, as well as your physical health. Some of the most common issues that may lead to a decrease in sexual desire include:

  • History of sexual assault or abuse
  • Hormonal changes
  • Job or relationship stress
  • Depression or anxiety
  • Use of certain medications
  • Physical pain during intercourse

Your sexual health is an important part of your overall health and sense of well-being. If your lack of desire is causing additional strain on your personal life or sense of self, the team at Viva Life Health Hub can help you understand the underlying cause of your low libido and provide recommendations to restore your sexual health.

What can improve my sexual desire?

The team at Viva Life Health Hub develops individualized treatment plans to help restore your sexual desire based on the underlying cause. Dr. Elmore and her team work one-on-one with you through virtual appointments to devise a plan that provides the most benefits.

If your lack of sexual desire is due to pain during intercourse, the team may recommend further testing to determine what may be causing the pain, such as a change in hormone levels or a sexually transmitted disease (STD). Based on the cause of your pain, the team creates specific treatment plans aimed at reducing your discomfort, such as:

  • Disease-specific medication
  • Hormone replacement therapy if your hormone levels are low
  • Vaginal revitalization treatments
  • Over-the-counter lubricants

For a low libido, the team may provide sex therapy and offer suggestions on what may improve arousal. The team may also refer you to an expert in your area who you can talk to you with or without your partner.
