As human beings, our sexual and pelvic health are very important to our general wellness overall.
Here at Mahaya Forest Hill, we create a safe space to address any sexual and pelvic concerns that may arise. Our Naturopathic Doctors are licensed to carry out PAP exams and vaginal swabs, as well as prostate and testicular health examinations. We work with lab partners to assess sperm and ovarian health, and can assess other aspects of health when indicated. Naturopathic Doctors have been trained as Primary Care Practitioners.
Working with a doctor on sexual health and libido can be a sensitive and personal topic, but it is important to remember that it is also a common and normal aspect of overall health. A doctor can help diagnose and treat a variety of conditions that may be affecting one's sexual health and libido, such as hormonal imbalances, erectile dysfunction, and low libido. They can also provide counseling and support for sexual difficulties related to stress, relationship issues, or past experiences.
Common issues seen in a medical office for sexual health and libido include erectile dysfunction in men, low libido in both men and women, and sexual pain or discomfort. These issues can have a variety of causes, such as hormonal imbalances, chronic health conditions, and certain medications. A doctor may recommend a combination of treatments, such as medication, lifestyle changes, and therapy, to address these issues.
In addition to traditional medical treatments, some alternative therapies may also be useful for improving sexual health and libido. These can include acupuncture, herbal supplements, and mindfulness practices such as meditation and yoga. It is important to consult with a healthcare professional before trying any alternative treatments, as some may interact with medications or other medical conditions. Your doctor will help you to find the best solution for you.
