En dag under en turné rundt på forskellige bordeller i Danmark siger Louises krop og psyke pludselig stop. Hun beslutter at forlade sexbranchen, men det er ikke så lige til, og hun bliver nødt til at trappe ned, inden hun kan slippe den helt. Gennem sin mentor i exit-programmet New Hope bliver hun sendt videre til psykiater og får konstateret angst og posttraumatisk stress. Men langsomt, ved hjælp af samtalerne og kognitiv terapi, kommer hun i bedring. Ægteskabet er i krise, for pludselig er Louise hjemme hele tiden, og økonomien er stram. Men hun er stædig.

Louise vokser op på Nørrebro og lærer allerede fra barnsben at række hånden frem for at få penge af de mænd, der forgriber sig på hende. Hun oparbejder et stort forbrug af slik, som hun bruger til at dulme sine følelser med. En dag stikker hun en blyant i øjet på en skolekammerat, der mobber hende, og hun bliver sendt på opdragelseshjemmet Ville Heise i Nordsjælland. Her møder hun pædagogen Bjørn og får for første gang i sit liv en tryg base. Fire år senere sendes hun i plejefamilie i et lille lokalsamfund på Sydsjælland, hvor overgrebene begynder forfra.

Louise flytter hjem til sin mor og lillesøster i Kolding. Ved siden af jobbet som opvasker på et stort hotel tjener hun penge ved at sælge sex til de mandlige gæster. Da en tysk kvinde tilbyder hende at komme til Hamborg og indspille pornofilm, ser hun det som en oplagt mulighed for at slippe væk hjemmefra, og hendes karriere i sexbranchen er for alvor begyndt. Efter et halvt år i Tyskland vender Louise hjem og flytter tilbage til København, hvor hun tager arbejde på skiftende bordeller.

Louise bliver gift og stifter familie. Men det går ikke helt efter planen, og snart er hun enlig mor og prostitueret på fuld tid. Udover at være tilknyttet de københavnske massageklinikker får hun en fast kunde, en udviklingshæmmet mand, som hun besøger en gang om måneden i hans hjem. Louise anholdes, sigtes og dømmes for underslæb, da politiet mener, hun har franarret manden et stort pengebeløb, og hun afsoner tre måneder i Vestre Fængsel. Hjemme venter hendes nye mand og tre sønner.

Louise har taget imod penge for seksuelle ydelser, siden hun var en lille pige. Dengang forgreb voksne mænd i morens omgangskreds sig på hende. Senere valgte hun selv prostitutionsvejen. Eller gjorde hun? Louise opsøger et exit-program og får tilknyttet en mentor, der skal hjælpe hende videre i livet. Men hvem er hun, hvis hun ikke er luder? Og kan hun overhovedet andet end at sælge sex? Måske er der håb for fremtiden. Oplært til prostitution er en fortælling på fem afsnit.
