More than one-third of women in perimenopause and postmenopause report having sexual difficulties. The decrease in sex hormones, including estrogen and testosterone, can cause vaginal dryness, atrophy, and tightness. When estrogen levels fall, you have less natural lubricant and your vaginal tissues are not as supple, which can lead to tearing and overall discomfort with penetrative sex. Testosterone plays a role in libido. Because testosterone levels fall as women age, it is not surprising that there is a hormonal component to your sex drive.
