Desire changes, and that is normal
Libido is shaped by hormones, sleep, stress, relationships, body image, medication and life stage. It often dips after birth, while breastfeeding, during demanding periods at work, and around menopause, when lower oestrogen can also make intimacy less comfortable.
Comfort comes first
Dryness and discomfort are common reasons desire fades. Gentle external care, taking time, and talking openly with your partner make a real difference. Vaginal dryness after menopause is common and very treatable, so it is worth raising with your doctor.
Support in this collection
The Baûbo Soothing Vulva Balm is an organic, fragrance free balm for comfort of the external intimate area, also available in a travel duo. It is not a lubricant and should not be used with latex condoms. Libido Support patches contain ginseng and damiana, traditionally used for vitality.
When to talk to a professional
Pain during intimacy, a sudden change in desire, or low desire that causes distress deserve attention. A doctor can look at hormones, medication and physical causes, and a qualified therapist can help too.
