I am back with Caroline Labouchere! Our conversation explores the topic of libido and the factors that can affect it, such as upbringing, education, relationships, and hormones. It emphasizes the importance of understanding one's own thoughts and beliefs about sex and prioritizing a healthy sex life. The discussion also touches on the use of hormones and medications, such as Addyi and Vyleesi, to address low libido. The conversation highlights the complexity of sexuality and the need for a holistic approach to addressing low desire. In this conversation, Dr. Kelly Casperson discusses various topics related to menopause, hormones, and sexual health. She addresses the use of on-demand medications for low libido, the cost of hormone medications, and the difficulty of finding doctors who specialize in menopause and sex medicine. Dr. Casperson also explains how Viagra works and its potential use for women. She emphasizes the importance of education and communication in addressing sexual health issues and provides information on vaginal estrogen and its benefits. The conversation concludes with a discussion on hormone therapy and its relationship to cancer treatment. Takeaways Libido is a complex topic influenced by various factors, including upbringing, education, relationships, and hormones. Understanding and addressing one's thoughts and beliefs about sex is crucial for improving libido. Hormones, such as estrogen and testosterone, can play a role in libido and may be used as treatment options. Medications like Addyi and Vyleesi are available for low libido, but they may not work for everyone and can have side effects. Prioritizing a healthy sex life and cultivating novelty and communication in relationships can contribute to a satisfying sexual experience. On-demand medications can be used to address low libido, similar to how Viagra is used for men. The cost of hormone medications can be high, making it difficult for some women to afford them. Finding doctors who specialize in menopause and sex medicine can be challenging. Viagra is a vasodilator that improves blood flow, but it does not directly affect desire or orgasm in women. Vaginal estrogen is a safe and effective treatment for symptoms such as pain with sex and dryness. Hormone therapy can be considered after cancer treatment, depending on the individual's situation and risks. Education and communication are crucial in addressing sexual health issues and advocating for proper care. https://www.instagram.com/carolinelabouchere/ Thanks to our sponsor Sprout Pharmaceuticals.

Two of the most common symptoms during the menopause journey are increased levels of anxiety and depression. The decline of women's sex hormones creates a plethora of adverse effects, such as weight gain, insomnia or fragmented sleep, hair loss, loose skin, loss of lean muscle mass, brain fog, night sweats, loss of libido, vaginal dryness, and more. These devastating changes are driving women to feel frustrated, confused, and depressed about their current state of health, including how they look and feel. Building your healthcare team during this time is essential for overall mind-body health. This should include a NAMS-certified OBGYN, an OBGYN who is well-versed in HRT, a General Physician, or a Functional Medicine MD, a health coach to help you navigate lifestyle behavior changes, a fitness expert to help you stay strong, and, for some women, a therapist or psychiatrist to support your mental and emotional well-being so you can continue to thrive in life.Psychiatrists prescribe psychopharmacology to their patients and most leave it at that. What if there was a psychiatrist who also prescribed healthy lifestyle behavior modifications alongside medication? My next guest practices something called cosmetic psychiatry and it's fascinating. Dr. Andreea Seicean, MD, PhD, MPH, is the Clinical Director of Like MySelf Wellness. She is an ABPN Board-Certified Adolescent and Adult Psychiatrist, clinical investigator, scientist, and Professor. She completed her training at Case Western Reserve University, the Cleveland Clinic, and the University of Illinois at Chicago (UIC). Her PhD is in epidemiology and biostatistics and she's an expert in outcomes, cost-effectiveness, and quality improvement. She has over 40 publications and received multiple awards from The National Institute of Mental Health, The American Psychiatric Association, and The American Association of Neurological Surgeons. Dr. Seicean has served as Psychiatrist and Clinical Director of the MidAmerica Mental Health clinics in Indiana and River North Psychiatry in Chicago. Dr Seicean is an Adjunct Professor at the University of Illinois at Chicago where she continues to be active in research and teaches psychopharmacology (medication management) to psychiatry residents. She has extensive experience reviewing and managing medications and treating depression, anxiety, OCD, bipolar, PTSD/trauma, ADHD, and addiction. She also specializes in cosmetic psychiatry, focusing on improving performance, quality of life, and self-esteem. This can include stress eating and weight loss, school and work performance, insomnia, irritability, stress, and life transitions.

A while back, we did a mini-series on peptides and sexual wellness. We covered PT-141 (bremelanotide), a peptide therapy used to help women and men with low sex drive. And Kisspeptin-10, a peptide that helps with increased arousal and may help with infertility. But we really didn't focus on what causes a low sex drive. So today, we'll touch on the possible mental and physical causes that may affect your sex drive, but we'll focus on medications that may lead to a decreased interest in sex. It's important to know that a low sex drive can affect both men and women. Medical conditions like depression, hypothyroidism, diabetes, and high blood pressure, may all cause a low sex drive. Even hormonal changes (e.g., during pregnancy, after childbirth, or while breastfeeding) can decrease interest in sex. And some people who use alcohol, have relationship issues, or certain infections (e.g., vaginal yeast infections, urinary tract infections) have a low sex drive. Certain medications may cause low sex drive as a side effect. But remember that not everyone taking certain medications will have the same issues.  Some antidepressants and antipsychotics are more likely to cause a low sex drive than others. For example, selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) like Paxil, Zoloft, and Proac are more likely to cause a low sex drive than Wellbutrin or Remeron. While older antipsychotics like Haldol, used to treat schizophrenia and bipolar disorder, are more likely to cause a low sex drive than Risperdal.  Benzodiazepines like Xanax, Ativan, and Valium, used to treat anxiety and seizure disorder, can lower your sex drive. Many people with heart failure report having a low sex drive. This is because people with heart failure need different medications to reduce how fast or hard their heart has to work and medications that get rid of extra fluid. Unfortunately, some heart failure medications like Digoxin, Spironolactone, beta-blockers, and other water pills like hydrochlorothiazide can lower their sex drive. Acid reflux or "heartburn" happens when stomach acid travels back into the esophagus. And people who take medications for "heartburn" (e.g., Pepcid and Zantac) have reported a lower sex drive. Even medications that affect sex hormones (e.g., estrogen, testosterone, and progesterone) can decrease libido. Examples of these medications include birth control and Lupron (used to treat prostate cancer). And lastly, people who use opioids like Norco and Ultram to treat pain can also have a lower sexual desire. How to improve sex drive caused by medications? Always talk to your healthcare provider first. They can determine if your low sex drive is due to your medications or if there's another cause, like an infection or hormonal changes. If your medication is causing a low sex drive, your healthcare provider may have you stop the medication if it's not needed. Or they may switch you to an alternate medication that doesn't cause a low sex drive. But don't stop your medication without speaking to your healthcare provider first. Your healthcare provider may suggest other medications or peptides like PT-141 or Kisspeptin-10.  What is PT-141? PT-141 (bremelanotide) is a melanocortin receptor agonist peptide. Melanocortin is a natural hormone in your body that works on receptors in your brain and nervous system to cause sexual arousal and influence sexual behavior. However, we don't know exactly how it works to improve sex drive. It can also work on receptors in cells that produce skin color (melanocytes). You may know PT-141 as Vyleesi. This medication was originally FDA-approved in 2019 to help low sex drive in women who haven't gone through menopause yet. While it's not approved for low sex drive in men, some may use it off-label.  In these cases, men also use PT-141 to help improve erections, libido, sex drive, and performance. What is Kisspeptin-10? Kisspeptin-10 is a neuropeptide involved in reproduction, sexual behavior, and sexual attraction. It helps increase activity in the brain associated with sexual attraction and arousal.  Kisspeptin-10 also stimulates the hypothalamus to release gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH), which in turn signals the pituitary gland to release luteinizing hormone (LH) and follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH). These hormones play a role in the production of both testosterone and estradiol.  Thanks again for listening to The Peptide Podcast. You can find more information at pepties.com.

We've decided to do a mini-series on peptides and sexual wellness. Over the next few weeks, we'll cover peptide therapies used to help women and men with low sex drive. As well as a peptide that helps with increased arousal and may help with infertility. Today, we'll focus on PT-141 (bremelanotide), what it is, how it works for low sex drive, and potential side effects to watch out for. What is PT-141 (bremelanotide)? Bremelanotide is a melanocortin receptor agonist peptide. Melanocortin is a natural hormone in your body that works on receptors in your brain and nervous system to cause sexual arousal and influence sexual behavior. However, we don't know exactly how it works to improve sex drive. It can also work on receptors in cells that produce skin color (melanocytes). You may know bremelanotide as Vyleesi. This medication was originally FDA-approved in 2019 to help low sex drive in women who haven't gone through menopause yet. While it's not approved for low sex drive in men, some may use it off-label.  In these cases, bremelanotide is also used in men to help improve erections, libido, sex drive, and performance. How is PT-141 (bremelanotide) dosed and given? PT-141 (bremelanotide) is given on an as-needed basis at least 45 minutes before sex as an injection under the skin (subcutaneously). You can give the injection with or without food into your abdomen, upper arm, or thigh. You should avoid injecting into the same spot every time. But you can inject into the same body area (e.g., abdomen) as long as you rotate your injection site.  The dose of PT-141 is 1.75 mg 45 minutes before sex for women and 1 mg for men (for erections and sex drive). You shouldn't take more than one dose in a day or use more than 8 doses per month. What are the potential side effects of PT-141 (bremelanotide)? You may experience some unwanted side effects that may get better over time as your body gets used to the peptide. These include the following: nausea (40%) (lasts approximately 2 hours, but improved for most people with the second dose) flushing of the skin injection site reactions like pain, redness, itching, or bruising headache vomiting In some cases, PT-141 (bremelanotide) can cause more serious side effects. Although rare, this peptide can temporarily raise your blood pressure and lower your heart rate after each dose. Your blood pressure and heart rate should go back to normal within 12 hours after taking this medication, but because of this side effect, you shouldn't take this medication if you have heart disease.  Because PT-141 (bremelanotide) can work on receptors in cells that produce skin color, the peptide can cause the color of your skin to darken. Areas of the skin, such as the face, gums, and breasts, are more likely to become discolored. People who take PT-141 every day or have naturally dark skin are more likely to have a darkening of the skin. It's not known if your skin will return back to normal after you stop taking PT-141. This is why it's not recommended to take more than 8 doses per month.  Who should not use PT-141 (bremelanotide)? Because this peptide can temporarily raise your blood pressure or lower your heart rate after each dose, you shouldn't use PT-141 if you have high blood pressure that is not controlled or a known heart disease. It's not known if PT-141 will harm your unborn baby. If you are pregnant or plan to become pregnant, you shouldn't take PT-141. Can PT-141 interact with other medications? PT-141 may slow down how quickly food leaves your stomach, and this may also affect how certain oral medications are absorbed by your body when taken with PT-141. You'll want to avoid using PT-141 when taking oral medications that are dependent on certain concentrations for efficacy, like antibiotics or pain relief medications like indomethacin.  Always tell your healthcare provider or pharmacist about all the medicines you take, including over-the-counter medicines. PT-141 may affect the way other medicines may work and vice versa. Thanks again for listening to The Peptide Podcast. You can find more information at pepties.com.

Our women are learning about solutions that are available to them to treat painful intercourse and lack of libido from our incredible group of Contributing Experts.   Today's podcast features one of our women and a newlywed, Erin, who was struggling with both painful intercourse and lack of libido early in her marriage.   Through the encouragement of the women in our support group and the education she was able to get through our team of Contributing Experts, Erin felt empowered to talk to her providers about potential solutions to her issues. As she tried options along the way (including vaginal laser treatment and pelvic floor therapy), her gynecologist suggested that Erin see a different gynecologist who worked more often with women who take hormone blockers.   Erin tells the story of how that new gyny was able to specifically identify why intercourse was painful and how just a tiny bit of topical hormone cream applied a couple of times a week restored her tissue and took away her pain quickly!   And on the libido front, it was recommended that Erin try using a prescription medication Addyi that works in pre-menopausal women to treat decreased sexual desire. Her gyny said 70% of the women she prescribes it to had great results, and Erin was one of those. Although her gyny said it would take three months to have results, Erin experienced increase desire in the first month!  (Note that there is one other prescription medication given by injection for pre-menopausal women who have low sexual desire called Vyleesi).   As it is with all of us, friends, painful intercourse and lack of libido is most likely caused by a combination of medical conditions that can be treated.

Our heads have officially exploded, people. Dr. Rachel Rubin is a board-certified urologist and sexual medicine specialist who dropped so much knowledge and helpful information into one conversation that our puny little brain-sponges got super-soaked. Listen to learn about the two little-known FDA-approved drugs that actually help women's libidos with no negative side effects, why you should be using local vaginal estrogen twice a week for the rest of your life, and how even a doctor can agree with us that the field of medicine is a disgusting dumpster fire of brokenness. As if that weren't enough, we also talk about the Grow Your Clit Movement, Covid Hemorrhoids, and what the hosts never thought they'd do in their 20's that they have done now.

How sexual function is biopsychosocial and the meds that affect the “bio” part of this There are two FDA approved meds for women with low desire. They work in 50-60%of people that take them. They work by boosting dopamine. Addyi - filbanserin - came out in 2015. It is an oral nightly medication. Side effects are sleepiness and may include weight loss. It is safe to use if you are on antidepressants. Vyleesi – bremelanotide – an on demand injection – likely works by increasing dopamine. Do we fix hormones first or use these meds first? How to navigate prescribing these meds as a provider? Dr. Rubin talks about her work changing national guidelines. 23% of women have clitoral adhesions Clitoral phimosis - workup and meds versus surgery – Dr. Rubin's pilot study How do we prevent recurrence?

Thanks for tuning in to the Armor Men's Health Hour Podcast today, where we bring you the latest and greatest in urology care and the best urology humor out there.In this segment, Dr. Mistry and Donna Lee discuss female sexual dysfunction. Although many people assume urologists deal primarily with urologic issues in men, we actually see many women for a variety of concerns, including sexual health and function. In fact, OB-GYNs often refer their female patients experiencing pain or dysfunction to us. The four main issues experienced by women with female sexual dysfunction are issues of interest, arousal, orgasm, and pain. While the first three of these issues can be overcome by "faking it until you make it," there are effective ways to treat these issues and enhance sexual experience. FDA approved prescriptions like Vyleesi and Addyi help women achieve arousal and even orgasm by increasing blood flow and clitoral sensitivity. The fourth issue--pain--is a real intimacy killer that can be difficult to get past for both women and their partners. This common condition can often be treated through pelvic floor physical therapy, which helps to address any physical issues that may be presenting. The most important thing to note is that women need not accept their female sexual dysfunction.

Thanks for tuning in to the Armor Men's Health Hour Podcast today, where we bring you the latest and greatest in medical and urology care and the best urology humor out there.In this segment,  Dr. Mistry and Donna Lee discuss the four types of sexual dysfunction in women: Dr. Mistry: dysfunction of desire, dysfunction of pain, dysfunction of arousal, and dysfunction of orgasm. Dysfunction is marked by the distress it causes the person experiencing it, so when it comes to sex, if something doesn't bother you, it's not dysfunctional. Many women are not directly bothered by a sexual issue, but are bothered by the effect it is having on their partner--and that, too, counts as dysfunction. Importantly, the types of sexual dysfunctions in women tend to overlap and interact. For example, an issue of pain during sex may cause the development of arousal dysfunction, etc.Sexual dysfunction is also strongly affected by relationships, and where one partner is experiencing dysfunction, you are likely to find an issue with the other as well. Consequently, treating some types of dysfunction is not enough to fix the issue at hand. For example, if a man is struggling to maintain an erection but his partner isn't interested in sex anyway, treating his ED will not fully resolve the problem. Dr. Mistry explains that there are several medications available to women to treat the different kinds of sexual dysfunction most commonly experienced. These include Viagra, which can help women achieve arousal (as it does for men); Addyi, which increases desire by improving the pleasure center hormone in the brain; and Vyleesi, which is an injection that gradually ramps up desire in women over several hours. If you or a loved one are experiencing sexual dysfunction or would like to learn more about the treatments available for them, please give us a call today!This episode was previously aired on 8.28.21.

Welcome to part 5 (of 6) of our Bulletproof Radio Sexual Energy Series! We’re bringing you lots of new information about sexual health, wellness, research, devices, and performance. We’re combining that with special offers, discounts and all kinds of resources on the Dave Asprey blog. Be sure to scan the show notes below for details!In this episode of Bulletproof Radio, I’m talking about female sexual wellness with Dr. Somi Javaid. She’s a leading obstetrician and gynecologist who’s been practicing for over 15 years. She’s considered to be a pioneer in the fields of menopause and sexual medicine treatment.Dr. Javaid founded a different healthcare clinic model just for women called HERmd in Cincinnati. With a suite of services and options, she aims to close the gender gap in healthcare and empower women to take control of their sexual health.She’s a fierce advocate for making sure women get the care and treatment that they need, and that shapes how she works. However, it’s rare and hard to find effective treatment for women’s sexual health in a healthcare system that often prioritizes the sexual needs and challenges of men. “Forty three percent of women struggle with sexual dysfunction, and it's like why is there such a stigma?” she says. “Why do we have two medications? Why are we continually ignoring and dismissing these women? It's a travesty. Imagine if there was any other condition that affected 43% of women or men. Would we ignore it the way we do this?”One area in particular is showing a lot of promise for women with low female libido, also referred to as hypoactive sexual desire disorder. “One out of every 10 women suffer from it at some point in their lifetime,” Dr. Javaid says. Since 2015, Addyi and Vyleesi have been FDA approved. Dr. Javaid is helping women normalize, talk about what’s going on with their sexual health, and find real solutions. She mentions new laser technology for tissue regeneration called the CO2RE Intima, vaginal health care, new contraceptive options, and how to handle the changes that come with perimenopause and menopause.Enjoy!

Thanks for tuning in to the Armor Men's Health Hour Podcast today, where we bring you the latest and greatest in urology care and the best urology humor out there.In this segment, Dr. Mistry and Donna Lee answer a listener's question about ED without low Testosterone: "Dr. Mistry, I've listened to several of your podcasts and like your holistic approach to men's health issues. I have struggled with ED and sexual desire off and on for several years. My PCP (primary care physician) says my testosterone is normal. Do you know any providers in the Dallas area who have a similar approach to yours?" Dr. Mistry reminds listeners of the chicken-and-egg problem with ED and low libido: do I have ED because my libido is low, or is my libido low because I have ED? An important consideration is making sure Testosterone levels are normal, that diet is optimized, and that a moderate exercise regime is already in place. These tend to increase self-esteem and, consequently, libido increases and ED decreases. In addition, there are many medications that can be used to increase libido, including Vyleesi and Addyi, which are FDA approved to increase sexual desire in women and can be used in an off-label way for men as well. Finally, Dr. Mistry reminds all of his Texan listeners that he can treat anyone living within the state via telehealth--no need to drive to Austin!

“Pas ce soir, chéri, j’ai la migraine”. Ce grand classique de l’excuse pour éviter d’avoir une relation sexuelle attribué aux femmes, c’est toute une représentation condensée du désir sexuel féminin : apparemment complexe, plus faible et moins mécanique que chez les hommes. Entre inégalité de représentation, culpabilisation et désintérêt, la baisse ou la disparition de la libido chez les femmes ne suscite pas la même inquiétude que chez les hommes. Ils ont facilement recours à des médicaments comme le Viagra. Pourtant qu’en est-il des traitements pour améliorer le désir féminin et que signifie la baisse de la libido pour les femmes ? Comment représenter le désir féminin et ses aléas ? À travers la science, la littérature et la pop culture, Clémentine et Pauline vous répondent aujourd’hui pour déconstruire l’inquiétude liée à la baisse de la libido féminine et remettre le choix sur le devant de la scène.

In this episode of #Dictations Dr. Rogers talks about hypoactive sexual desire disorder in women, and a new drug on the market called Vyleesi that treats this condition.

Dr. Alyssa Dweck discusses this condition that many women are uncomfortable talking to their healthcare providers about. Hypoactive sexual desire disorder or HSDD is biological and not a result of issues or unhappiness. It can be handled with the proper care and treatment. Learn more at www.Vyleesi.com. PRODUCT IS ONLY APPROVED FOR USE IN THE U.S. Sponsor: Interview courtesy of AMAG Pharmaceuticals.

In The Passion Perspective's  inaugural episode, MC and Emily introduce themselves and discuss;  Sex in the news - the FDA's approval of Vyleesi (aka female Viagra) and cultural assumptions that shape our understanding of sexual desire The clitoris -  the importance of the (often undervalued) clitoris to sexual pleasure, the existence of an "orgasm gap" that sees men having way more orgasms than women, and why you should give your clitoris its very own nickname.
