概要

 If sex feels like the last thing on your mind right now, you’re not alone and you’re definitely not broken. Up to 40–50% of women experience low desire, low arousal, or pain with sex, especially in perimenopause and menopause.

In this validating and practical episode, Dr. Sarah Vadeboncoeur breaks down why libido is so much more complex than hormones alone. Using the Bio–Psycho–Social–Interpersonal model, she explores how stress, mental load, body image, relationship dynamics, and cultural conditioning all influence desire.

You’ll learn the difference between spontaneous desire and responsive desire, why long-term relationships naturally shift your sexual motivation, and how to create the conditions for sex that actually feels worth wanting. Sarah also covers when low desire becomes a problem (HSDD), the role of hormones like testosterone, and what evidence-based treatments can help.

If you’ve ever dreaded “the look,” wondered where your libido went, or felt guilty for not wanting sex, this episode will help you feel seen and offer real tools to reshape your relationship with desire.

What You’ll Learn
  • Why your libido is influenced by biology, mood, stress, culture & relationships
  • The Basson model: why desire often comes after arousal
  • How responsive desire is completely normal in long-term relationships
  • The role of hormones (and what testosterone can actually help with)
  • When low desire becomes HSDD (hypoactive sexual desire disorder) — and what to do next
