When we talk about metabolic health, people often associate it with maintaining a healthy weight and having good energy levels.
But did you know our metabolic health affects our sexual function and fertility, too?
Our hormones hang in a delicate balance, and when blood sugar goes on a wild ride so does everything else. That means not only are we at risk of weight gain, mood swings, and energy crashes, but it increases the chances of erectile dysfunction, infertility, difficulty finding sexual pleasure, and so much more.
Today on The Dhru Purohit Podcast, Dhru sits down with our friend Dr. Casey Means to talk about the three main ways metabolic health can impact sexual function.
