In this episode of Double Down with Dr. D., Dr. Paola D’Aleman Poveda explores the connection between perimenopause and sexual health and offers practical, holistic solutions for women. Learn how to combat symptoms such as low libido, vaginal dryness, and brain fog and reconnect with your body and sexual vitality during this life transition. A must-listen for any woman navigating menopause.
In Episode 8 of Double Down with Dr. D., we’re diving into a conversation many avoid—but absolutely need to have: sexual health during perimenopause and menopause. As part of our Mental Power series, I’m breaking down what’s really going on—physically, emotionally, hormonally—and how these changes impact everything from desire to bladder control. We’ll talk about the power of estrogen, the role of your gut, the underrated strength of your pelvic floor, and how mindfulness can reconnect you with your body. This isn’t just about sex—it’s about self-worth, agency, and staying in your power through every phase of womanhood.
Dr. Paola D’Aleman Poveda is a physician, educator, and advocate for women’s health and empowerment. With a focus on mind-body medicine, she helps women navigate midlife with clarity, confidence, and compassion through her Double Down with Dr. D. podcast series.
