B<\/span>y improving blood flow to the genitals, Viagra could conceivably make sex more pleasurable for women. But it doesn’t really address the primary manifestation of female sexual dysfunction — a lack of desire.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

By DAN SEITZ<\/strong><\/p>\n

We all know Viagra does a wonderful job for men, relieving symptoms of erectile dysfunction and helping millions of men to please their partners.\u00a0It’s become one of the most successful medications made for precisely that reason.\u00a0But, it’s often been wondered whether Viagra has any benefit for women.<\/p>\n

The answer is . . . sort of.<\/p>\n

Medically, Viagra simply works as a vasodilator<\/a>, meaning it ensures that more blood flows to the genitals.\u00a0 It does this by temporarily suppressing a certain enzyme.\u00a0Since genitals in general need blood flow to be at their best, if a woman takes Viagra, yes, more blood will flow to her genitals and will, in theory, help with sex.\u00a0 At least, if the problem is medical in the first place.\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Men and women are very different when it comes to arousal.\u00a0If a man is aroused, it generally also creates sexual desire, the end result of which is an erection.\u00a0It’s a pretty clear chain of cause and effect; show a man something sexual, and he’ll get an erection.\u00a0But Viagra was never designed to create desire where none existed in the first place; if you take Viagra and have no desire for your partner, you’re still not going to get an erection.\u00a0 Viagra is for those for whom the spirit is willing but the flesh has seen a few more miles and isn’t quite what it used to be. It solves a hydraulics problem, not an emotional one.<\/p>\n

Some Women May Benefit<\/h3>\n

There are undeniably women who simply don’t get enough blood flow below the waist, and they in fact may benefit from Viagra.\u00a0For example, studies have found that women who experience a decline in sexual desire after beginning a course of antidepressants can be helped by pairing those drugs with Viagra.\u00a0 But if a woman has always had low libido, Viagra isn’t going to do anything for her; the problem is not below the waist but above the neck.<\/p>\n

A great product that can enhance sensitivity during sexual intercourse is Stimula for Women. You can purchase this product for only $19<\/a> (12-packets in a collective tin).<\/p>\n

Complicating the quest for a truly effective medication to help women fire up their libido is a lack of understanding about just how a woman becomes aroused and how that translates to desire.\u00a0 Keep in mind that doctors believed for centuries that women didn’t really experience orgasm, which makes us feel bad for the wives of those doctors.\u00a0 In fact, the vibrator was invented by do\"\"<\/a>ctors who were tired of treating \u201cfeminine hysteria\u201d by hand, and yes, that means exactly what you think it does.\u00a0 Even when they were causing female orgasms left and right, the medical establishment simply refused to believe women got aroused and experienced orgasm. Medically speaking, a woman enjoying sex was impossible.\u00a0 Good Lord, those poor doctors’ wives!<\/p>\n

Female Arousal Largely a Mystery<\/h3>\n

So, while we have a wealth of understanding about the male orgasm and male arousal, helped considerably by centuries of doctors being exclusively male, female arousal and how it works is still largely a mystery.\u00a0 However, it’s definitely true that the mind is a woman’s most prominent erotic organ and should be treated accordingly.<\/p>\n

In short, it may not be Viagra a woman needs so much as her lover demonstrating that he cares for her and deeply wants her.\u00a0 Heck, even with Viagra, a man needs the same thing.\u00a0 While there may be specialized applications for women, overall, Viagra will solve the mechanics but likely not the problem itself.<\/p>\n
