Menopause, Andropause & Libido: How Hormones Shape Sexual Vitality with Dr. Guy Citrin

Every human body goes through puberty.

And every human body will also move through menopause or andropause.

Yet somehow… we’re taught almost nothing about what happens next.

Brain fog.
Low libido.
Poor sleep.
Weight gain.
Vaginal dryness.
Erectile changes.
Mood shifts.

Most people assume:

“This is just aging.”

But what if it’s simply hormones out of balance — and completely treatable?

In this episode, I’m joined by Dr. Guy Riekeman, naturopathic physician and specialist in hormonal health, gut health, and regenerative medicine, to break down what’s actually happening inside the body during perimenopause, menopause, and andropause — and how to restore energy, vitality, and sexual aliveness naturally.

This conversation is both science-based and empowering.

Because suffering through hormonal shifts isn’t inevitable.
And you don’t have to “just live with it.”

In this episode, we explore:

• What perimenopause and menopause actually are (and why symptoms happen)
• The truth about progesterone, estrogen, and mood regulation
• Why PMS, heavy cycles, and painful periods are not “normal”
• Vaginal dryness, libido loss, and sexual pain — and what to do about it
• Andropause explained: low testosterone in men (even in their 20s and 30s)
• Signs of low testosterone: brain fog, low energy, weak erections, low drive
• Why many doctors miss hormonal imbalances
• Natural approaches vs. bioidentical hormone replacement
• Herbs and lifestyle tools for hormone support
• The risks of jumping straight to testosterone injections
• Gut health + hormones as the foundation of feeling good
• Simple anti-aging practices for lifelong vitality

Dr. Guy shares something I deeply believe:

You don’t have to feel old just because you’re aging.
Your body can feel vibrant, sexual, and alive for decades longer than we’ve been taught.

Hormones aren’t just about reproduction.

They shape:
your mood
your metabolism
your sleep
your desire

your sense of being at home in your body

When they’re balanced, life feels radically different.
