Dr. Tariq Halim answered

Specializes in Psychiatry

Low Sex Drive: Sex drive in females may or may not be hormone related. There is a significant emotional component to sexual arousal, especially in women. In addition to seeing your medical provider, consider an appointment with a mental health professional, too.
