Podcasts about low libido

Have you been told you have low estrogen — and the solution was immediately birth control or hormone replacement — but no one could explain why your estrogen is low in the first place? Or maybe you haven't even tested yet, but you're dealing with classic low estrogen symptoms like dry skin, low libido, thinning hair, weight gain, anxiety, or brain fog… and you're wondering if low estrogen could be the missing piece. Or maybe you have tried supplements, hormones, or lifestyle changes to raise estrogen — and nothing sticks. You feel better for a minute… then crash again. And you're left asking: Why won't my hormones actually rebalance? If you said “yes” to any of those, this episode is for you. Today we're continuing the Real Root Cause Series, where I take conditions that are commonly treated like the root cause — and show you what's actually driving them underneath. This matters because confusing a symptom for a root cause is the fastest way to stay stuck… even when you're “doing all the right things.” Today's topic is low estrogen. In this episode, I'm breaking down:Why low estrogen really happensCommon low estrogen signs and side effects Why artificially boosting estrogen sets you up for potentially worse problems long-termThe five real root causes that lead to low estrogenAnd the exact tests to find which root causes you are uniquely dealing with And one more thing — for this entire Real Root Cause Series, I've created visuals. If you're a visual learner, or you want to see the full big-picture flow of what's draining your hormones, head to betterbellytherapies.com/root to download the graphics that go with this episode. Because when you stop trying to raise estrogen by force and start restoring the vitality your body needs to make hormones again — that's when you get full-body transformation.

This week we’re chatting low libido and why it's a thing! We talk about what we tolerated “back in the day,” the pressure to perform, and why men can switch it on just like that, but if you dare to pack the dishwasher in the wrong way we're turned off for at least a week! See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Low libido doesn't just “happen.” And for women, you may not realize that it's rarely just about hormones.In this deeply honest episode of Crying In My Cheesecake, Dr. Danielle exposes the quiet grief behind low libido—the grief no one talks about, but so many women are carrying. This isn't a conversation about quick fixes, supplements, or surface-level hormone hacks. It's about resentment, exhaustion, lost identity, emotional overload, and the slow disappearance of yourself under responsibility, service, and survival mode.If you've been telling yourself, “Something must be wrong with me,” this episode invites you to pause and consider a deeper truth: libido doesn't disappear — there's always more to the story. Dr. Danielle unpacks how grief, resentment, cultural pressure, and chronic self-neglect shut down desire long before hormones ever do. She challenges common narratives around femininity, marriage, and sacrifice, while offering a faith-based, root-cause path back to yourself.This episode is for the woman who is tired of pretending, tired of pushing through, and ready to stop surviving and start healing—mind, body, soul, and spirit.SERVICES & MEMBERSHIPS:Blood Sugar ExplorersAdventurerSubstackCoffee Cafe Registration$7 Mentorship: How to Fix Your Energy, Cravings, and Mood in Just One DayWork With Dr. DanielleFoundational PackageComprehensive PackageFREE RESOURCES:

Avoiding sex? Feeling the "ick" when your partner initiates? Going to bed at 8pm to dodge intimacy? You probably think you have low libido. But what if that's not what's actually happening?In this vulnerable episode, I share my own story of years spent in what I call "the messy middle"—that phase where you've stopped having sex you don't want, but you haven't figured out what you DO want yet. From the outside, it looked like my libido vanished. But what was really happening? My body was setting boundaries after years of performing intimacy.I walk you through the three phases: passive withdrawal (where most people get stuck), learning to own your voice and have the hard conversation, and discovering your authentic pleasure. I also share the specific fears that keep people stuck—"What if talking about this makes it worse?"—and what actually helps you move forward.Note: This pattern happens most for women due to socialization, but it affects anyone who's learned to perform sexually rather than connect authentically.If you're in the messy middle, this episode will help you understand why—and what comes next.Special Course Announcement: limited time, last enrollment: Thriving Together, Couples Healing Attachment Patterns Through TouchA Groundbreaking 6-Week Live Online Workshopwith Dr. Aline LaPierre & Dr. Laura Jurgens starts February 1, 2026https://neuroaffectivetouch.com/thriving-togetherGet my free guide: 5 Steps to Start Solving Desire Differences (Without Blame or Shame), A Practical Starting Point for Individuals and Couples, at https://laurajurgens.com/libido Find out more about me at https://laurajurgens.com/ Read The Desire Gap Blog at https://laurajurgens.com/the-desire-gap-blog/

Low libido is one of the most common — and least talked about — symptoms women experience, especially in their 30s and 40s. And despite what we're often told, it's not random, it's not a personal failure, it's not a "natural part of aging" and it's definitely not something you just have to accept.In this episode, we're diving into why libido drops in the first place and what's actually happening underneath. We'll unpack the role of dysregulated cortisol, suppressed sex hormones, mineral depletion, and hidden stressors in the body and why libido is one of the first things to shut down when the body doesn't feel safe.This episode will help you understand why guessing doesn't work, why testing changes everything, and what foundational steps you can start taking now to support your hormones, nervous system, and overall vitality.If you've been wondering whether that spark is gone for good, this conversation will show you why it's likely just been blocked, and how to get it back.Thanks for listening.

Thank you for joining us for our 2nd Cabral HouseCall of the weekend!   I'm looking forward to sharing with you some of our community's questions that have come in over the past few weeks…   Sonja: Dr Cabral thank you so much for all of the wonderful education you have been sharing with us over the years to help us be healthier. My family and I greatly appreciate it along with so many others around the world! I am a 60 year old woman who was diagnosed with hemochromatosis about 2 and 1/2 years ago. Thanks to the minerals and metals test that I completed which raised a red flag on the iron level, I was able to get my doctor to do a ferritin blood test to find out that my level was at 725! Over the past couple of years, I have been working with a hematologist and getting therapeutic phlebotomies as needed. I eat clean, workout and have an overall healthy lifestyle with minimal alcohol consumption. I do a 7-Day Detox 3 to 4 times a year, daily DNS shake along with multiple Equilife supplements. My question to you is - if I was your aunt what protocols or recommendations would you have for me? I would love to reverse the diagnosis of hemochromatosis. In addition, what would be the ferritin range that you would recommend? My hematologist wants it as low as possible (around 30) however my energy is very low when it's at the levels that he desires. Thank you so much for everything that you do. Sonja      Peter: Hi Dr. Cabral, Thanks for the great work you do and your books! I'm generally in good health and currently not on any medications. For the past 2–3 years I've been very consistent with lifestyle habits: clean diet, training 5–6x/week (3x strength, 2x cardio, 1x HIIT), no alcohol, consistent sleep schedule, sauna ~3x/week, and daily bowel movements. Despite this, I've experienced low libido for several years. It fluctuates, but I haven't been able to identify clear triggers or improvements. A few years ago, blood work showed elevated prolactin. My doctor prescribed Dostinex (dopamine agonist), which resolved libido symptoms effectively, but felt too strong. I'd prefer to identify and address the underlying cause rather than suppress symptoms. Recent blood work again shows elevated prolactin and elevated SHBG. Free testosterone is low. Blood sugar is within range but not optimal given my lifestyle. LDL is also elevated. Primary symptoms • Low libido (low initial drive, rare or absent morning erections) • Skin issues for ~1.5 years (none prior): – Redness on chin and temples, flaring after meals and after B-complex supplements – Small forehead bumps resembling acne that appear and disappear within a day Secondary symptoms • Slightly flat mood • Low muscle gain relative to training effort • Occasional cold hands • Frequent urination (including at night) • Low evening energy • Reduced interest in socializing I've tried various supplements over time but without a clear framework or plan. I'm hoping you could share your thoughts on possible root causes and what testing or protocol you would prioritize. Thank you for your work and guidance! Best, Peter     Michelle: Hi Stephen, I've experienced sensitivity to Equilife's Florafilm & another brand of proteolytic enzymes (nausea & vomiting). I have no allergies and have never experienced a negative reaction to a supplement. I am in overall good health and not on any medication and was wondering what might be causing such a reaction? I tried taking just one of the capsules instead of two on an empty stomach and experienced similar side effects. Is this product by chance enteric coated? I read that could help prevent side effects. Lastly is there a product you could recommend in its place to help remove biofilms so that the Para Support protocol will continue to be most effective? I found a product that contains Bismuth Subnitrate, Alpha lipoic Acid and Black Cumin (Priority One Biolm). Would it be ok to take this product in place of the Florafilm? I have been taking just one capsule of it with no side effects (product recommends 2 capsules 4 days a week) or is there a better solution as I do want to do some other Equilife protocols and noticed they also contain the Florafilm product. I love your Podcast and Equilife products and disappointed this one doesn't work for me. Thank you for all you do!      Larissa: Hello Dr Cabral. My 4yrs old son is allergic to dogs, I suspect the saliva. When he pets a dog nothing happens but when a dog licks him or his hands and he touches his face, that area gets red and swollen within minutes. Is this common? Is it possible this will go away? Is there a way to test him for this and more importantly treat him for this? I've heard of the NAET protocol, do you recommend this?

I see this over and over. Women doing everything right and still stuck. Clean eating. Steps. Hormone panels. Gut work. And nothing changes.This episode is me telling the truth most people avoid. Your body is not resisting you. It does not feel safe.When safety is missing, fat stays. Libido drops. Energy flatlines. Progress stops.This is not mindset work or motivational fluff. This is about your nervous system, your hormones, your lived experience, and the patterns your body has been protecting you with for years.I break down why willpower will never fix this, why most protocols fail, and what actually ends the cycle for good. If you are done guessing and ready to understand what your body has been trying to say, this episode is for you.Support the showHosted by Casey Shipp — 3000+ transformations, Self-Made Millionaire, High Priestess, Writer, Fitness Cover Model, and Founder of the Hotbody App. $30M client wins | $7.8M sold onlineRich isn't rare.

Passion doesn't disappear because something is wrong with you.It disappears because desire requires different fuel than love. In this provocative and deeply honest conversation, Rebecca Whitman sits down with Dr. Diane Mueller—doctor of naturopathy, libido expert, and bestselling author—to unpack why sex often fades in long-term relationships and what actually brings desire back. This episode dismantles the myth that low libido means something is broken. Instead, we explore how hormones, stress, emotional safety, and modern burnout quietly shut desire down—and how to reignite passion without shame, pressure, or blowing up your life. If you love your partner but miss wanting them, this conversation will change how you see desire forever. 

f you've ever wondered, “Why don't I feel desire anymore?” or quietly asked, “What's wrong with me?” — this episode is for you.In this episode of Miracle Marriage Makeover, I share what God showed me in my own marriage during a season of grief, change, and emotional distance. You'll learn why desire often shuts down in midlife and the empty nest — not because something is broken in you, but because your heart is longing for emotional safety and connection.We talk about why desire is responsive, not defective…Why trying harder doesn't restore intimacy…And how gentle, faith-filled shifts can begin bringing closeness back.If you love your husband but feel distant, confused, or quietly lonely, I want you to know — you are not failing.And if you want to walk this season with women who understand, I'd love to invite you into my private Facebook group:Empty Nest Wives – Rebuilding Intimacy & Connectionhttps://www.facebook.com/share/g/161mSZ1zmG/Your desire isn't broken. Your heart isn't too late. And God is still writing your story.

Many men assume their struggle with sex is about low libido — but often, it's something deeper. In this episode, David breaks down Sexual Intimacy Resistance in Men: why desire fades even when love is still there, and how intimacy itself can start to feel threatening on a nervous-system level. Rather than blaming attraction, hormones, or performance, this conversation reveals what's really happening beneath the surface — and why fixing libido misses the point. If you're experiencing emotional distance, reduced initiation, numbness during sex, or a growing wall between you and your partner, this episode offers clarity on the unseen patterns blocking intimacy — and what actually helps restore closeness and desire. Topics Covered What sexual intimacy resistance really is (and isn't) Why it's different from low libido or fear of intimacy How the nervous system blocks arousal and closeness Common patterns in avoidant and high-functioning men How resentment, pressure, and shame kill desire Why intimacy must be treated as a closeness issue — not a performance problem

Many women I talk to struggle enjoying physical touch during sex. They don't know their experience can be any other way so they continue trying to enjoy things they don't like and then label themselves as “non-sexual”. In our conversation, my husband and I discuss:• why so many women push themselves to initiate or say yes even when their body is clearly uncomfortable • why discomfort is so often normalized through culture, media, and silence • the real fears women carry about speaking up and the consequences they're trying to avoid • why this can feel shocking or confusing for men when the truth finally comes outIf having a closer, more connected and joyful sex life is something you want in your relationship, this episode is an important one to listen to.Sign up for Janna's brand new workshop on Jan. 15.

Visit the Sex With Emily Website: https://sexwithemily.com/ Episode Description In this Sex with Emily episode, Dr. Emily and producer Erica tackle your trickiest relationship and sex questions—and some of these situations are messier than you think. The wife having sex 5+ times a week who's being pressured to set midnight alarms so her husband can wake her up for more—why this isn't about frequency at all, and the real need he's actually trying to fill. That guy who insists oral sex should only happen "on special occasions" because it gets "taken for granted": what this scarcity mindset reveals about his past relationships, his skill anxiety, or his actual preference—and whether this is a dealbreaker you're discovering early. The biological reason men wake up ready for sex in the middle of the night while their partners are deep asleep—and why disrupting your sleep hygiene to feel "desired" is a Band-Aid on a much deeper issue. When your partner believes doing something too often creates expectations they can't meet: the philosophy problem that shows up in bed and everywhere else, and what "taken for granted" really means about their view on compliments, effort, and intimacy. Why oral sex as foreplay is the norm, not the exception—and how to navigate a partner who sees it as the main event that loses its magic with repetition. Plus: the conversation framework for exploring where your partner's sexual beliefs actually come from, and why the first few months of dating are just data collection on whether you're actually compatible.

In this replay from Season 1 Episode 9 of the 2 Be Better Podcast, Chris and Peaches tackle the real side of traditional marriage, trauma, and mental health with raw, unfiltered honesty. They respond to criticism about their appearance, talk openly about troubled pasts, depression, suicidal thoughts, and why they choose to show up for “the broken” instead of trying to impress people who already have perfect-looking lives. You'll hear powerful conversations about validation, why feelings are information and not weakness, why suffering in silence destroys people, and how a single moment of listening and empathy can literally save a life. This episode is for anyone searching for real talk on healing, self-worth, faith, and taking ownership of your life instead of staying stuck in victim mentality.They also dive deep into sex and intimacy in marriage, including high vs low libido, sexless marriages, weaponized intimacy, nagging, and what it really means to be a stay-at-home wife in a traditional, faith-centered relationship. You'll hear coaching around lazy partners who won't work, setting timelines for change, financial stress, postpartum depression and creative burnout, grief after losing a parent, and how to let your husband lead in finances without losing your strength as a woman. Expect straight-forward marriage advice, practical communication tools, real examples from listener emails, and tough-love guidance on boundaries, leadership, submission, respect, and rebuilding attraction in your relationship.Disclaimer: We are not professionals.

Millions of families around the world are struggling with trying to conceive. Conception can require a lot of trying, which can take the fun out of the process for couples and even add to a decreased libido for both partners.

Dem Thema Unlust haben wir uns schon über so viele Pfade genähert, über den heutigen allerdings noch nicht. Dieser Trend erreichte uns aus den USA, genauer gesagt über unseren lieben Kollegen Hawe (Hans-Werner Klein) vom achwas.fm-Podcast. Einem Artikel der renommierten New York Times zufolge berichten zahlreiche Frauen auf Social-Media-Plattformen von einem Wundermittel gegen ihre eingeschlafene Libido. Die Rede ist von Testosteron. Teils in sehr hohen Dosen und Off-Label konsumiert, soll es ein regelrechter Booster sein - nicht nur im Bett, sondern auch im Alltag. Vor allem Best Agerinnen berichten von deutlich mehr Energie und plötzlich aufflammender und unbändiger Lust auf ihren Partner - allerdings auch von einigen unangenehmen, teils irreversiblen Nebenwirkungen. Grund genug für Ann-Marlene und Caro, der Sache einmal genauer auf die Spur zu gehen. Was kann Testosteron bei Frauen wirklich Gutes leisten – und was nicht? Hört rein, und begleitet uns auf unserer Spurensuche!

If you have ADHD and your sex life feels challenging, you're not broken - your brain just works differently. Maybe you have super high libido and use sex or masturbation to feel at home in your body. Or maybe your libido is low because sex hasn't been working for your body or you're stuck in your head and you don't know why or how to fix it. Or maybe you're both, depending on the day.In this episode, we unpack why ADHD creates these extremes - from sex as self-medication to getting stuck in your head during sex to not knowing what your body actually needs. We also cover Rejection Sensitive Dysphoria (why "not tonight" feels catastrophic) and emotional dysregulation (the intensity that confuses your partner).Whether you're the ADHD partner or the non-ADHD partner trying to understand, this episode will help you make sense of what's been happening. No shame, just clarity. First in a 4-part series on ADHD and desire gaps.Get my free guide: 5 Steps to Start Solving Desire Differences (Without Blame or Shame), A Practical Starting Point for Individuals and Couples, at https://laurajurgens.com/libido Find out more about me at https://laurajurgens.com/

In this episode of Sex Advice for Seniors, I welcome back Michelle Jermy, psychotherapist and founder of The Yoni Therapist, to discuss her groundbreaking work on women's sexual health, low libido, and the often-overlooked relational aspects of desire.Michelle shares her mission to help clinicians and patients better address issues like low libido, pain during penetration, and the pressures many women feel to “perform” sexually. While current clinical tools like the Female Sexual Function Index, which I have never heard mentioned previously, focus on biomedical factors, Michelle emphasises the need to explore relational and emotional dynamics. She is developing a new toolkit to help clinicians ask deeper, more relevant questions, such as, “Do you feel pressured to have sex to maintain your relationship?” or “Do you know what brings you sexual pleasure?”The conversation highlights how women's sexual health is often dismissed or under explored in clinical settings. We discussed the importance of clinicians adopting a more expansive view of sex—not just focusing on penetration, but including a full spectrum of intimacy and pleasure. Michelle also stresses how understanding basic wellness factors, such as sleep, mental health, and physical touch, is essential for restoring desire. We tend to think of libido as purely driven by hormones, but as we discussed in this episode and I have discussed in previous conversations with doctors such as Lauren Streicher MD, it's much more complex than that!Michelle's upcoming research project aims to train clinicians and provide tools for better addressing women's sexual health concerns. For patients, she advocates for proactive communication with healthcare providers, even suggesting template letters to help women articulate their needs confidently.It's so important that we normalise conversations about women's pleasure and sexual health, in order to bridge the gap between patients and clinicians.Why Subscribe to Sex Advice for Seniors?

Send us a text & leave your email address if you want a reply!Are you a successful woman who's conquered the boardroom but lost the spark in your bedroom? You're crushing professional goals while your intimate life crumbles. The modern successful woman faces an impossible paradox: society demands she operate in masculine energy all day (achieving, doing, conquering), then magically shift to feminine energy at home (receiving, flowing, being). But nobody taught us how to make this transition. This disconnect isn't a personal failure—it's a systemic issue affecting high-achieving women everywhere. The result? Depleted libido, sexless marriages, chronic burnout, and a nagging feeling that despite external success, something vital is missing. In this episode, intuitive coach, social worker, and author Avalaura Gaither reveals why the same drive that makes you successful at work is sabotaging your sexual empowerment and intimate relationships.THIS EPISODE IS ESSENTIAL IF YOU:Feel exhausted by the demands of being "everything to everyone"Struggle to shift from work mode to intimate connectionHave achieved external success but feel empty insideExperience low libido despite wanting passionate intimacyCarry sexual trauma that impacts current relationshipsWant to access your intuition but don't know howAre ready to break the cycle of martyrdom and burnoutLINKS & RESOURCES MENTIONED IN THE EPISODE CAN BE FOUND HERELAST 10x LONGER.

There's a big difference between not wanting sex and not wanting sex with that person while you're drowning in life admin, kids, stress, and mental load. Let’s get one thing straight—low libido isn’t always about hormones, broken sex drives, or being “too tired.” Sometimes? You’re just not turned on by your life. In this spicy (but real) episode, we dive deep into the truth behind dwindling desire—because it’s not just about what’s not happening in the bedroom… but what’s overflowing outside of it. From the mental load and resentment no one wants to admit to the burnout of being everyone’s everything (except your own), we’re unpacking why so many women feel flat, disconnected, and totally meh about intimacy. Whether you’re in a relationship, dating, or navigating sex after babies—this episode will have you laughing, nodding, and possibly sending it straight to your partner with a few underlined time stamps.

In this episode of the Health Fix Podcast, Jannine Krause explores the intricate relationship between weight gain and sexual health. She discusses how changes in body weight can affect circulation, confidence, and libido, and emphasizes the importance of addressing these issues holistically. Drawing from her experiences and insights from Chinese medicine, she highlights the role of digestion, stress, and lifestyle habits in weight management. The episode also offers practical solutions, including dietary adjustments and herbal remedies, to help listeners regain balance and improve their overall health.   What You'll Learn In This Episode: Weight gain can impact sexual health and libido. Circulation changes with weight gain affect confidence. Chinese medicine offers insights into weight management. Damp accumulation in the body can lead to weight gain. Stress affects liver function and digestion. Eating habits and meal timing are crucial for digestion. Herbal remedies can support digestive health. Weight gain patterns are often linked to lifestyle changes. Maintaining balance in the body is essential for health. Open communication about sexual health is important in relationships. Resources From The Show: HCL Challenge - Get Thorne Betaine HCL + Pepsin - take one capsule with meal one and watch for any burning, no burning go for 2 capsules with the next meal and increase by one capsule till you either reach 5 capsules or you have a slight burning in the stomach. The more capsules you can tolerate without a burn the more deficient in stomach acid you are. Use 1 teaspoon of baking soda in a few ounces of water and drink it. You can repeat the baking soda drink if needed. Most people will end up taking between 2-6 HCI capsules per meal. Digestive Enzymes - Steven Wright's Company "Healthy Gut" - HCL Guard + Holozymes Apex Energetics - Enzymix Pro Active Herb - herbal company Blue Poppy Herbs Herbs I mentioned in the podcast: Gui Pi Tang — For weak digestion and fluid retention. If you feel puffy or gain weight quickly after eating, this is your ally. Shan Zha Jian Zhi Pian — This one breaks down fat. It's amazing for folks who stress eat or binge on sugar. Long Dan Xie Gan Wan — Helps the liver chill out, especially if you're dealing with reflux, constipation, and bloating. Ba Zhen Tang — When you're just wiped out, lacking motivation, or not even hungry, this one helps restore yang and blood to energize the body. Liu Wei Di Huang Wan — This is a staple for perimenopause and menopause support. It nourishes yin and helps with vaginal dryness, low libido, and overall hormone balance.

In part two of Janna's conversation with Ryan, he opens up about his decision to wait until marriage to have sex—a choice rooted in a desire to escape the guilt he'd carried for most of his life. While the experience was fine at first, their intimacy gradually faded. Over time, Ryan began to feel isolated and deeply unloved. Determined to fix their relationship, he turned to podcasts and books for advice. But as his frustration grew, he found himself blaming his wife for not putting in the same level of effort.Ironically, it was his wife who discovered the Doing It Together course and suggested they try it. Ryan admits that much of the content wasn't entirely new to him. What was new, however, was seeing that information through the lens of intimacy within marriage. It shifted his entire perspective. Instead of focusing on what he saw as her "problem," Ryan began to reflect on his own role in their dynamic. The course helped him realize the powerful impact of making changes on his side—both emotionally and physically—which began to transform their connection, in and out of the bedroom.The next round of Doing It Together is open for registration!
