Female Aphrodisiacs (by Danna Schneider)

Female Aphrodisiacs and Why They Bring Women More Intense Sexual Pleasure

Low sex drive, or libido, is a common problem facing millions of women today. While it can be fairly common in older men, it is more prevalent in women at a much younger age, whom by all rights, should have a healthy sexual appetite.

The expanding occurrence of low female libido is slowly being answered by the sexual enhancement industry with newer and better female aphrodisiacs that not only revive your libido, but also enhance your overall sexual experience from beginning to end and help to dramatically intensify the female orgasm.

These natural aphrodisiacs come in several forms including oral supplements and external oils containing stimulants that increase circulation and blood flow for more sensitivity and more intense and gratifying interludes.

I personally prefer externally applied libido enhancers, since oral supplements can take an hour to several hours to take effect in the female body, and this definitely tends to take the spontaneity factor out of the sex act.

The external oils, gels and creams also work almost instantly and prepare a woman for sexual activity immediately. Most of the common ingredients used in sexual pleasure enhancement oils help to further swell the delicate tissue and make it more highly sensitized. These ingredients make include L Argynine, which is a precursor to the chemical reaction that helps produce the female orgasm, menthol, and various other amino acids.

Too many women suffer lowered sex drive today - largely due to the high stress levels of today's society, and increasing burdens on women in general. It's time for us women to take more control over our sexual satisfaction. After all, what better tension reliever can you think of?

Is A Natural Female Sexual Enhancer The Answer? (by Sherri Solomon)

Almost all women experience loss of sexual desire at some point in their lives. Some women believe that sexual desire is shameful or inappropriate to discuss openly. Women who've been unassertive about their sexuality in the past may prefer to sacrifice their sex lives rather than become assertive now about what's required to satisfy their sexual needs.

Denise seemed to have it all. A loving mother of two children and a partner in a law firm in Los Angeles, she had a very handsome and charming partner who was a successful entrepreneur. They jetted off for vacations to Italy and dined in the finest restaurants. But their relationship floundered in one intractable area. "After a while," Denise says, "I just stopped wanting to have sex. I go months without doing it."

It's a subject that's full of shame: low female sex drive. In a society saturated with sexual imagery, it seems strange that some people have no desire for sex. But it is a startlingly common problem. Millions of women suffer from a condition known as hypoactive sexual desire (HSD) or low sex drive.

Sexual Dysfunction?

One of the most predominant components of female sexual dysfunction is low libido. There is no generalized answer as to why someone is experiencing loss of sexual desire (low libido). Low libido can have a variety of causes, some psychological and others physical. If you have experienced loss of desire (low libido) for only a short time, it may just be a stage and could possibly take care of itself. Perhaps the leading cause of low libido is stress and fatigue. Most often, low libido in this circumstance is temporary and returns when the stressful period ends. Many times, when under extreme stress, low libido can be helped by getting the appropriate amount of rest. If the condition persists, the first line of defense may be making mental changes. Low libido can sometimes be helped by getting out of stressful or anxious situations. Changing certain aspects of your relationship may also alleviate the condition of low libido. Try to think about what the cause of low libido may be for you personally. It could be your partner, your environment, or a number of other factors. Stress compounds low libido and relationship issues as one partner is not able to devote an appropriate amount of energy to their partner.

Is Fematril The Next Female Viagra?

Recently several female sexual enhancers have come on the market to combat low female libido. The most promising of them all is Fematril. It is being called the "Female Viagra" because it has the ability to stimulate blood flow, circulation, and hormone activity. The end result is that women will experience a more enjoyable orgasm. Regular use can help women become more orgasmic. There are also now some female sexual enhancers that have been specifically designed to increase libido during the act itself. Many female sexual enhancers containing L-Arginine are getting very good responses in the market when used as a lubricant. L-Arginine is a non-essential amino acid which, through clinical testing, has been shown to increase libido and help in the area of female sexual dysfunction.

If you're frustrated about your lack of sexual appetite, try to go easy on yourself. Everyone's body is different. There is no "normal" level of sex drive. Your personal sense of normality is defined by how you feel about your sexuality and whether or not you're happy with how you are expressing it. If you're one of the lucky people who is perfectly comfortable with his or her sexuality, congratulate yourself. If you're like the millions of others who feels they could use a little boost, explore the remedies we've suggested.

Sherri Solomon has just completed her new book titled "Why Should Guys Have All Of The Fun?" It will be released in June 2005. She is a devoted wife and mother of three children and lives in San Diego, California.

Female Viagra - Does It Exist (by Nikita Warren)

The Drivers of Female Sexual Dysfunction

Female sexual dysfunction is characterized by a lack of desire, arousal and orgasm. That's not to say its causes aren't physical, they certainly can be. Hypertension, heart disease, cancer, diabetes, thyroid disorders, neurological diseases and autoimmune disorders can all contribute to a woman's lack of sexual desire. Other factors include certain prescriptions drugs, particularly anti-hypertensives and depression medication, as well as over-the-counter medications and illegal drugs and alcohol abuse.

So Is there a Female Viagra?

Regular Viagra that we are all familiar with, is designed to increase blood flow to the genitals. This is the pharmaceutical product Viagra that works well for many men who suffer with impotence — or erectile dysfunction. Interestingly, in tests Viagra-like drugs also seem to help about 20 percent of women with female sexual dysfunction – that’s to say, in the case where the woman concerned is having difficulties with lubrication (blood flow to the female genitals increase lubrication).

At the time of writing there are no pharmaceutical female Viagra drugs on the market. Though that could certainly change over the next few years as numerous drug companies and researchers race to develop female Viagra for what promises to be a huge & very lucrative market. Banking on the success of Viagra — the drug companies hope to find its female Viagra equivalent. At the moment, they are focused on developing a drug that increases blood flow to the female genitals, resulting in vaginal lubrication and relaxing vaginal muscles.

Outside of a ‘pharmaceutical’ answer to female Viagra which doesn’t yet exist, there are however, established - albeit not particularly well know - herbal Viagra options for women:

‘Herbal’ Female Viagra

It has to be said, that the use of herbs and nutrients to enhance women's sex drives and pleasure is nothing new. For many years, folk medicine and naturopathic healing have had a variety of natural and botanical ingredients in their arsenal of tools to combat women's flagging sexuality due to fatigue, stress, dietary deficiency, aging, hormonal changes or emotional upset.

Female Viagra Preparations

There are two basic female Viagra preparations available. The first category are the libido-booster supplements. Libido-booster supplements work at many different levels to enhance the circulatory system, balance hormones, improve the reproductive system and to establish a feeling of wellbeing. Most women report positive effects after only about a week or two of taking libido-booster supplements.

The other herbal female Viagra option is female Viagra cream. Female Viagra Cream is basically an arousal cream - once applied, the cream improves blood flow and dilation of the blood vessels around the clitoris, thus greatly enhancing sensitivity and arousal. The response time is fairly rapid and the effect further enhanced with sexual stimulation through touching, rubbing, and licking in the clitoral area.
