Is Your Hormone Balance Killing Your Sex Drive?

Why does no one talk about what really happens to your sex drive as you get older? In this episode, Dr Amir Khan and Cherry Healey talk about libido, hormones and desire, from the oestrogen cream changing women’s lives to the truth about testosterone, stress, and why so many couples quietly lose their spark. Plus, Cherry reveals why a "luxury afternoon" might just be the ultimate health hack!
