This week’s episode of Hormone Happy Hour is definitely a spicy one, we’re talking libido, intimacy, connection, and what’s actually going on when your sex drive feels low, inconsistent, or completely missing. I walk through the physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual pieces that make up a healthy libido. Everything from low progesterone and estrogen dominance to nervous system overload, mineral depletion, and the patterns that quietly shut down desire. We also explore how intimacy itself can play a healing role in your hormones and your nervous system (yes, God really designed this whole thing with purpose). This is one of those episodes that will help you understand your body on a deeper level, breathe easier, and feel less alone in what you’re experiencing. ✨ Here’s what we unpack together: Why low progesterone, estrogen activity, and adrenal patterns can change your desire How your minerals and nervous system shape libido (more than you think) Why stress + resentment quietly kill desire The emotional and mental roots behind low libido How intimacy can support hormone healing The connection between gut health, energy, and desire What Scripture reveals about fertility, intimacy, and connection Masculine + feminine dynamics that affect desire Practical steps for rebuilding libido in a way that feels supportive, not pressured Follow Me on Instagram  hello@drheatherrhodes.com https://www.drheatherrhodes.com/ Book A Free Consult Sign Up for My Weekly Newsletter  Thank you so much for tuning in to this episode!
