In this direct and insightful episode of The Mindful Living, host Sana sits down with Dr. Diane Mueller, board-certified sexologist and founder of MyLibidoDoc.com, to unpack the multifaceted causes of low libido in both men and women. From hormonal imbalances and pelvic floor health to psychological factors like body image and trauma, Dr. Diane breaks down the top five physical causes while also addressing the deeper personal and relational influences. The discussion emphasizes how sexual well-being ties directly to overall health, and how shame and stigma often keep people from seeking solutions. Whether you’re in a long-term relationship struggling with desire, or curious about optimal sexual health, this episode offers practical advice, myth-busting insights, and actionable steps to reclaim intimacy.
About the Guest: Dr. Diane Mueller is a dual doctorate holder in Naturopathic and Oriental Medicine, a board-certified sexologist, and host of the Libido Lounge podcast. She specializes in uncovering the root causes of low libido and is the founder of MyLibidoDoc.com. Her mission is to bring shame-free, science-based solutions to sexual health and wellness.
Key Takeaways:
-
Low libido is rarely just about hormones—neurological, circulatory, and stress factors are equally critical.
-
Women’s arousal takes longer due to biological and neurological differences; foreplay and mindfulness are essential.
-
Relationship dynamics and body image heavily influence sexual desire—communication and novelty play key roles in revitalizing long-term intimacy.
-
Optimal testosterone levels matter more than just being “within normal range.”
-
Hygiene, pelvic floor health, and psychological conditioning from childhood all contribute to libido health.
