EXPERT FEMALE SEXUAL DYSFUNCTION TREATMENT

Female Sexual Wellness

Sexual wellness is not static—it shifts over time, influenced by hormonal changes, life experiences, and overall health. Concerns such as low libido, discomfort, or hormonal imbalances often emerge gradually, making it difficult to pinpoint when things started to feel different. Moreover, these issues can impact confidence, relationships, and emotional well-being. Addressing them isn’t just about restoring function—it’s about reclaiming comfort, connection, and a sense of self.

At Revive MD, sexual wellness is treated with the same level of care and expertise as any other aspect of health. Dr. Kishore Lakshman, a board-certified endocrinologist, specializes in identifying the underlying causes of female sexual dysfunction and developing tailored treatment plans based on medical science and compassionate care. By taking a whole-body approach, symptoms are addressed at their source, offering lasting solutions for women at every stage of life.

Our goal is to destigmatize discussions around female sexual health and debunk myths about menopausal hormone therapy (MHT) for women undergoing the menopausal transition. We empower women to embrace menopause and explore safe, effective options for positive outcomes. The menopausal transition can last a decade or more, and not seeking help can significantly compromise quality of life, mental health, and sexual health while also increasing the risk of chronic diseases such as osteoporosis, diabetes, obesity, heart disease, and dementia.

With the right approach, you can feel restored, revitalized, and rejuvenated. Take our Hormone Wellness Check and schedule an appointment today to explore your treatment options.

HORMONE REPLACEMENT THERAPY FOR WOMEN | FALL RIVER, MA

Restoring Balance With Advanced Treatments

Hormonal changes can impact energy levels, mood, metabolism, sexual function, and more. These changes may cause symptoms that interfere with daily life, yet these concerns are often overlooked or dismissed as an unavoidable part of aging. Additionally, non-hormonal treatments are often prescribed, but they may fail to provide adequate symptom relief and can sometimes cause unwanted side effects, such as further declines in sexual function and increased mental fogginess. Advanced hormone replacement therapy provides relief by restoring balance and supporting long-term wellness.

At Revive MD, our treatments are designed to optimize health, not just treat symptoms. Every treatment plan is based on comprehensive lab testing, medical evaluation, and a patient’s specific needs.

Some of the conditions we treat include:

  • Perimenopause & Postmenopause: As estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone levels decline, symptoms such as hot flashes, mood swings, anxiety/depression, brain fog, insomnia, and weight gain may develop. Perimenopausal hormone therapy and postmenopausal hormone treatment can help restore hormonal balance, alleviating discomfort and supporting overall well-being.
  • Female Sexual Dysfunction: Loss of sexual desire, difficulty with arousal, and discomfort during intimacy can result from hormonal imbalances, vaginal atrophy, and reduced circulation. Treatment options, including hormone replacement therapy (HRT) and regenerative medicine, can help restore sexual health.
  • Urinary Symptoms: A decline in sex hormones can also impact the proper functioning of the bladder. This may lead to distressing symptoms such as urinary incontinence, increased urinary frequency, and recurrent urinary infections.
  • Low Testosterone: Although commonly thought of as a “men’s issue,” testosterone plays a critical role in female health, influencing libido, energy, metabolism, fat distribution, and muscle tone. Low testosterone treatment for women helps restore vitality, mood stability, body composition, and sexual function.
  • Hair Thinning or Loss: Hair loss is often linked to hormonal changes, genetics, and underlying medical conditions. Treatment plans may involve hormone regulation or regenerative therapies like PRP to promote scalp health and hair growth.
  • Excessive Hair Growth (Hirsutism): Androgen imbalances often cause unwanted hair growth in areas such as the face, chest, or abdomen. Hirsutism treatment aims to regulate hormone levels and reduce excessive hair growth through targeted therapies.

Sexual health is a lifelong aspect of well-being, and solutions are available to support confidence and comfort at every stage. By addressing the underlying causes of these concerns, treatment plans can provide lasting improvements that go beyond symptom management.

VAGINAL PLATELET-RICH PLASMA (PRP) INJECTIONS

Treatment Options for Female Sexual Dysfunction

Female sexual dysfunction (FSD) is a broad term that refers to persistent issues with sexual desire, arousal, orgasm, or pain during intimacy. FSD can occur for a variety of reasons, including hormonal imbalances, vaginal atrophy (thinning of vaginal tissues), reduced blood flow, childbirth, menopause, chronic stress, and certain medical conditions.

At Revive MD, Dr. Swetha Nataraj, a board-certified nephrologist with a passion for aesthetics and regenerative medicine, specializes in advanced, non-invasive treatments to help women regain confidence and restore sexual function. One of the most innovative options available is vaginal platelet-rich plasma (PRP) injections, a cutting-edge regenerative therapy that enhances blood flow, sensitivity, and natural lubrication to improve overall sexual health.

PRP therapy is a safe, natural treatment that harnesses the body’s own healing properties to stimulate tissue repair and rejuvenation. Here’s how the process works:

  • A small sample of your blood is drawn and processed using a centrifuge to isolate platelet-rich plasma, which is rich in growth factors and regenerative proteins.
  • The PRP is then injected into key areas of the vaginal and clitoral tissues, where it stimulates cellular repair, increased blood flow, and collagen production.
  • Over time, PRP therapy can enhance sensitivity, improve lubrication, reduce discomfort, and increase overall arousal and sexual satisfaction.

Because PRP is derived from your own blood, the risk of adverse reactions is extremely low, making this a safe and effective alternative for women seeking to improve their sexual health without hormones or surgery.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I know if I need hormone therapy?

Hormone imbalances can affect people at any stage of life. If you're experiencing unexplained fatigue, mood swings, stubborn weight gain, low libido, or sleep disturbances, hormone therapy may be a potential solution.

Not sure where to start? Take our Hormone Wellness Check , a quick self-assessment to evaluate your symptoms, or request a consultation with Dr. Lakshman.

What are the benefits of hormone therapy for women?

Hormone therapy is designed to restore balance and improve quality of life. Benefits may include:

  • Reduced hot flashes
  • Improved mood stability
  • Improved cognition
  • Increased energy
  • Enhanced sexual function
  • Better sleep quality
  • Improved body composition
  • Improved bone health
  • Decreased risk of heart disease

Is hormone therapy safe?

When managed correctly, hormone therapy is safe and effective. Each treatment plan at Revive MD is guided by the latest clinical research and tailored to the patient’s needs. Plus, with regular monitoring, we can make adjustments to your treatment as needed over time.

What are my options if HRT is not considered safe for me due to my medical history?

Systemic HRT (such as oral medications, patches, or pellet implants) may not be suitable for everyone, particularly those with active or past hormone-sensitive cancers, such as breast cancer, or a history of blood clots and heart disease. However, FDA-approved non-hormonal therapies are available to effectively manage symptoms like low libido and hot flashes. Additionally, vaginal hormone applications and vaginal PRP are often considered safe, even for individuals with hormone-sensitive conditions. Your doctor will carefully assess your medical history, collaborate with your care team, and recommend the safest and most effective treatment options for you.

Is low libido always caused by hormonal changes?

Not always. While hormonal shifts are a common factor, stress, relationship dynamics, certain medications, and underlying health conditions can all play a role. A full assessment helps identify contributing factors, allowing for a treatment plan that supports not just physical wellness but emotional and psychological well-being, too.
