Sexual Intimacy & health
Sexual health is not just about libido—it involves a complex interplay of hormones, mental well-being, emotional connection, and physical function. Studies show that up to 43% of women experience sexual dysfunction at some point in their lives, yet very few receive appropriate support (Journal of Sexual Medicine, 2022)【1】.
Common concerns we address include:
Low libido & diminished sexual desire
Painful intercourse (dyspareunia)
Vaginal dryness & discomfort
Pelvic floor dysfunction & post-childbirth changes
Hormonal influences on sexual function
Emotional & psychological barriers to intimacy
🡒 The reality: Sexual concerns are common, treatable, and worth addressing. Our approach combines hormonal therapy, pelvic health strategies, and integrative wellness solutions to help women reclaim their confidence and pleasure.
How We Support Your Sexual Wellness
At Live Well Collective, we take a comprehensive approach to sexual health that goes beyond conventional treatments. Our goal is to identify the root cause of your symptoms and provide a customized pathway to healing and fulfillment.
Hormonal Optimization for Sexual Health
Hormones play a significant role in sexual desire, arousal, and satisfaction. Declining estrogen, testosterone, and progesterone levels—whether due to aging, postpartum changes, or perimenopause—can contribute to low libido, vaginal dryness, and reduced pleasure.
🡒 Clinical research shows that restoring optimal hormone levels through Menopausal Hormone Therapy (MHT) or targeted therapies can improve sexual function, mood, and overall well-being (Menopause Journal, 2023)【2】.
Our approach includes:
✔ Personalized hormone testing to assess imbalances.
✔ MHT with bioidentical hormone options when appropriate.
✔ Non-hormonal interventions for women who cannot or prefer not to use MHT.
Pelvic Floor & Vaginal Health
A strong, well-functioning pelvic floor is essential for pleasurable, pain-free intimacy. Pregnancy, childbirth, menopause, and aging can weaken pelvic muscles, leading to:
Pain during intercourse
Urinary incontinence or urgency
Decreased sensation and arousal
🡒 We offer pelvic floor support, functional exercises, and specialized referrals to pelvic health therapists to restore strength and function.
Painful Intercourse & Vaginal Discomfort
Pain with intimacy is not normal and should never be ignored. Common causes include vaginal atrophy (thinning of vaginal tissue due to low estrogen), endometriosis, pelvic floor dysfunction, and chronic inflammation.
Up to 50% of postmenopausal women experience vaginal discomfort that can significantly impact relationships and self-esteem (Mayo Clinic, 2023)【3】.
We provide:
✔ Hormonal & non-hormonal solutions for vaginal dryness.
✔ Pelvic therapy strategies to ease discomfort and improve function.
✔ Nutritional & lifestyle recommendations to support tissue health.
Intimacy & Relationship Wellness
Sexual health is more than just physiology—it is deeply connected to emotional intimacy, body confidence, and mental well-being. Many women experience anxiety, shame, or relationship strain due to sexual dysfunction.
We offer:
✔ A judgment-free space to discuss concerns openly.
✔ Mindfulness-based strategies & stress management for improving intimacy.
✔ Education on enhancing arousal, connection, and pleasure.
🡒 The goal is not just to treat symptoms—but to help you reclaim joy, connection, and self-confidence in your intimate life.
