IT’S a topic that many are too shy to utter out loud…
Many women during menopause notice a dip in their sex drive, and to combat this, The Better Menopause has launched Better Libido.

Better Libido (30-day supply), £47
A survey conducted by Better Menopause showed that 2 in 3 women noticed a decline in libido during perimenopause and menopause, and the drop in energy and libido often put a strain on their relationships.
As Dr Shahzadi Harper, resident doctor at The Better Menopause, explains: “Many midlife women tell us they feel flat, disconnected, or just not like themselves.”
Better Libido supplements are formulated to help restore hormonal balance, improve circulation and general mood, helping women to feel confident and sexy again.
Medical experts at the brand recommend taking the supplement daily for at least four to six weeks to see the benefits.
A 30-day supply of the supplements normally costs £47, but you take advantage of the special 25% off introductory offer.
Simply use the discount code: INTRO25 at checkout when making your first purchase before 19 October.

Better Libido is packed with a host of natural ingredients to help women feel their best, in and out of the bedroom.
Zinc supports hormone balance, vitamin B3 helps reduce fatigue and vitamin E aids cell protection and renewal.
Other botanicals used in traditional medicine, such as maca root, ginseng, ginkgo biloba, and cordyceps mushroom, also help to support energy, stamina, circulation and endurance.
“Better Libido is formulated to support the broader experience of vitality,” explains Dr Shahzadi Harper.
“When we get our spark back, we start to feel more sexy again.”
Better Libido can also be taken safely alongside HRT medication, and pairs well with the brand’s other bestselling supplements, like Better Gut and Better Night.
The different menopause treatments
THE main menopause treatment is hormone replacement therapy (HRT), which replaces the hormones that are at low levels.
There are various types and doses, and it’s important to find the one that works best for you.
Oestrogen comes as:
- Skin patches
- A gel or spray to put on the skin
- Implants
- Tablets
If you have a womb (uterus), you also need to take progesterone to protect your womb lining from the effects of oestrogen. Taking oestrogen and progesterone is called combined HRT.
Progesterone comes as:
- Patches, as part of a combined patch with oestrogen
- IUS (intrauterine system, or coil)
- Tablets
Some people are also offered testosterone gels or creams to help improve sex drive, mood and energy levels, or additional oestrogen tablets, creams or rings for vaginal dryness and discomfort.
Other medicines can be used to treat menopause symptoms.
These include a blood pressure medicine called clonidine and an epilepsy drug called gabapentin to help with hot flushes and night sweats.
Antidepressants can combat mood symptoms if you’ve been diagnosed with anxiety or depression, and cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) can also help.
Alternative treatments, like herbal remedies, are not recommended as it is unclear how safe and effective they are.
