MYTH
While variable hormones during the menopausal transition can impact sexuality, there are many effective treatments that can restore sexual function. These include hormone therapy, vaginal lubricants, sexual aids, and counselling or therapy. Contrary to this myth, many women experience an increase in desire. This could be hormonal, but is also influenced by factors such as lowered stress and enjoying the privacy that comes when children move out of the house.
