Nutraceuticals for Sexual Dysfunction
How Nutraceuticals Addresses Sexual Dysfunction
Nutraceuticals offers a comprehensive approach to managing sexual dysfunction. This treatment modality focuses on addressing the root causes of your symptoms while supporting your body's natural healing processes.
Naturopathic Approach to Sexual Dysfunction
Naturopathic treatment for sexual dysfunction takes a holistic, sensitive approach addressing physical, hormonal, and emotional factors simultaneously. Comprehensive assessment identifies specific contributors across multiple domains. For hormonal concerns, supporting testosterone and estrogen balance through botanical medicines, targeted nutrients, and potentially bioidentical hormone therapy helps restore libido and tissue health. Pelvic floor therapy is essential for addressing pain, muscle dysfunction, and improving genital sensation and blood flow. Nutritional support optimizes hormone production, cardiovascular health for arousal, and addresses nutritional deficiencies affecting sexual function. Herbal medicines including maca, tribulus, and ginkgo may support desire, arousal, and sensation. Addressing underlying health conditions including thyroid dysfunction, chronic inflammation, or metabolic issues improves overall vitality. Stress management and nervous system support help women feel safe and present during intimacy. Counseling or referral for relationship therapy may be appropriate. This compassionate, comprehensive approach aims to restore sexual satisfaction, improve intimate connection, and enhance overall quality of life.
