Contrary to the popular belief that your sex life goes out the window the moment you hit menopause…
Your libido can actually increase due to the hormonal imbalances you experience during menopause.
So when your sex drives increases during menopause, dont be alarmed!
That is because of the hormonal imbalance that works out in their favor.
Testosterone is the hormone that is linked to libido for women as well as men. In women, testosterone levels slowly drop, so that a 50-year-old woman has about half the testosterone levels she had at 25.
However, during menopause, estrogen levels fluctuate drastically — and as a result testosterone levels end up being ‘dominant’, which causes the increase in libido.
If your sex drive takes a turn for the worse instead, don’t worry!
We’ve prepared some natural ways you boost your libido with:
There are certain fruits that are capable of boosting your libido — or aphrodisiacs.
These foods also provide important vitamins and minerals that can increase blood flow to the genitals and promote a healthy sex life.
Fruits like: Blueberries, Strawberries, Figs, Bananas, Avocado
It is no surprise that chocolate is on this list.
It has cemented itself as a symbol of desire , not just because of its delicious taste but also because of its power to improve sexual pleasure.
Chocolate promotes the release of the chemicals phenethylamine and serotonin into your body. This can produce some aphrodisiac and mood-lifting effects.
Too much alcohol can kill the buzz & inhibit your ability to orgasm.
Drinking one glass of wine can put you at ease and increase your interest in becoming intimate. However, too much alcohol can ruin your ability to perform by affecting erectile function.
Smoking cigarettes can have a negative impact on a person’s cardiovascular system. Good heart health is important for good sexual functioning.
People who smoke cigarettes may find that their energy levels and sex drive increase after they quit.
For women, emotional closeness is ever so important to sexual intimacy. That means unresolved conflicts can affect your sexual relationship.
So speak to your partner about the problems that are gnawing at you. Communication is essential for building trust in a relationship, and it’s important to communicate constantly to prevent resentments from building up.
PS: Testosterone isn’t the only hormone that affects your libido. Having lower estrogen levels is also linked to lower libido during menopause.
Yes there is — hormonal supplementation! By supplementing the body with the hormones it needs to maintain hormonal balance, your libido will return to normal.
The most common form of hormonal supplementation is HRT (hormone replacement therapy), however, the health risks might outweigh the benefits for most older women.
So, if you’re looking for a more natural way of hormonal supplementation, we recommend adding phytoestrogens into your diet.
Phytoestrogens are compounds found in plants that mimic the effects of estrogen when ingested…
