To diagnose sexual dysfunction, your Nurture Women’s Health specialist reviews your medical history and symptoms. They complete a physical exam, including a pelvic exam, and may order blood tests to confirm or rule out specific medical problems. Depending on your condition, your sexual health treatment plan might include:
Maintaining a healthy lifestyle increases your chance of optimal sexual health. Eat nutritious foods, get regular exercise, don’t smoke, maintain a healthy weight, and get plenty of sleep.
Hormone imbalance in women can cause low libido, vaginal dryness, and pain with intercourse. Your OB/GYN specialist offers hormone replacement therapy to get estrogen, testosterone, or progesterone levels within a normal, healthy range.
