What Is Low Libido and Why It Happens

Many women experience a drop in sexual desire at some point in life. It can feel frustrating, confusing, or even isolating. Known medically as hypoactive sexual desire disorder (HSDD), this condition affects millions of women — often in silence.

Causes may include:

• Hormonal shifts (perimenopause, menopause, postpartum)
  
  
• Emotional stress or relationship strain
  
  
• Medical conditions like thyroid imbalance, depression, or chronic illness
  
  
• Medications, especially antidepressants or birth control
  
  
• Vaginal dryness or discomfort during intimacy
  
  

The result is often a loss of interest in sex, difficulty becoming aroused, and a lack of fulfillment. But the good news is this doesn’t have to be your new normal.

How Duo™ Supports Women Experiencing Low Libido

Duo™ is a noninvasive treatment that helps women regain confidence, comfort, and connection. Using focused acoustic wave therapy, Duo™ stimulates blood flow to intimate areas — a critical component of sexual response and arousal.

Here’s how it works:

• Increases blood flow for improved sensation
  
  
• Enhances tissue responsiveness
  
  
• Encourages natural lubrication
  
  
• No downtime or discomfort
  
  
• Can be used as part of a comprehensive care plan
  
  

Unlike medications that only address one piece of the puzzle, Duo™ targets the physical contributors to sexual dysfunction. This makes it a great fit for women seeking a drug-free, hormone-free option.

What to Expect from Treatment

Each Duo™ session takes about 20 minutes. Most women describe the sensation as a light tapping or buzzing. There is no need for anesthesia, and you can return to daily activities immediately after.

While some report improvement after the first treatment, a series of sessions is often recommended for full benefits. Many patients notice:

• Stronger arousal responses
  
  
• Increased sexual satisfaction
  
  
• More comfort during intimacy
  
  
• Boosted confidence
  
  

Addressing the Emotional Side of Low Libido

It’s important to remember that sexual health includes both the body and the mind. Low desire is not “just in your head,” but emotional wellbeing still plays a major role.

At MHA for Women, we approach your concerns holistically. We combine physical treatments like Duo™ with hormone balancing, therapy referrals, and lifestyle support when needed.

This isn’t about fixing you. It’s about helping you reconnect with what makes you feel like you again.
