How Can Low Libido In Women Be Treated?

yes I had a total hysterectomy at the age of 23,,now I m 49....trying to get back on my hormone pills because I have no sexual desires and a dry vagina but also was on paxil for my anxiety attacks. I moved in with my boyfriend and was wondering if they have any type of medication to produce a sex drive because I love this man and miss having sex. Do hormone pills cause a sex drive or just helps with the hotflashes?? Im not that very bright on what Im needing,,,just recently found out a womans body needs not only estrogen but also progestron....still don t understand ...do they make Viagra for women?

Hi,

Hormone replacement therapy will be helpful to get libido. You can also apply estradiol cream on the vagina to decrease the dryness and irritation. Also, do stress relaxation techniques. Stress will decrease libido. You can do breathing exercises for stress relaxation. Sit relaxed and take deep breaths slowly and release. Meditation is also helpful.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
