When long-term couples approach an end to their hormonal honeymoon and the phases of menopause and andropause begin to have a marked negative impact on sexual function and intimacy, the combined disruption can have a significant effect on the health of the relationship. Some patients believe the decline in their quality of life is inevitable. Others feel hopeless, thinking their partner no longer desires the connection they once shared. Clouded by misinformation, patients tend to shoulder the burden of aging alone.
It doesn’t have to be this way. People aren’t experiencing hormonal shifts in a vacuum, but in the context of their relationships. Taking a couple-oriented approach to these developments is called couple-pause.
Couple-pause is a novel way of thinking where menopause and andropause symptoms are addressed together. Recognizing the significance of attending to the couple as a whole, has created a paradigm shift in perspective, revolutionizing how providers practice.
At LowTE Florida – when we talk about “balancing hormones”, we don’t just mean in your own body, we also mean in the relationship. We want both partners optimized to help their relationship flourish.
Hormone replacement therapy may be right for you for various reasons ranging from low energy, looking younger, improving your sex life, gaining muscle mass and burning fat. Have you noticed: Low desire for sex, less sexual satisfaction, weight gain, poor hair quality, fatigue, muscle loss, mood changes and/or memory loss?
LowTE Florida can help you with these symptoms. We will measure your hormone levels, collect your medical history, discuss your symptoms, and guide you accordingly. Many patients have said statements like “I have a better sense of well-being”, “this therapy is life changing!”
At LowTE Florida® we provide individualized treatment based on your biochemistry and your medical history – grounded in science, not guesswork. LowTEFlorida.com
