Hypoactive sexual desire disorder (HSDD)

Let’s talk about sexual health in women. You are here because you too are curious about this topic. At some point, women experience problems with their sex drive and their libido goes down. You find yourself asking if this is normal. These are the reasons why you are experiencing sexual problems. Potential causes are:

• Some illnesses or the use of medications
• Depression, anxiety, or even stress
• Hormonal changes e.g.; during pregnancy, pre- and during menopause
• Past negative experiences
• Cancer treatments and their side effects

How can a gynecologist help in this situation? Being honest with your gynecologist can lead to potentially solving a problem by asking the following questions:

• Your identity
• Sexual history
• When you started experiencing pain during sexual intercourse
• When you started experiencing the symptom
• If you have tried self-help methods
• If you had experienced sexual abuse or violence
