Homeopathic treatment
There is no treatment of loss of libido or sex drive in allopathy or conventional medicine. The
big pharmaceutical companies are searching for a drug that will turn women on, they
have had little success.
Usually hormonal pills are given for loss
of libido particularly the male sex hormone testosterone. Allopathic doctors have
been trying out testosterone on women for more than 45 years, rarely with much benefit.
This may be a quick and strong way to combat hormonal imbalance, but unfortunately,
it entails serious side effects and increases the risk of different types of cancer
among women.
In 1991 the National Institute of Health (NIH) launched the Women's Health Initiative
(WHI), the largest clinical trial ever undertaken in the United States. The WHI
was designed to provide answers concerning possible benefits and risks associated
with use of hormone replacement therapy (HRT). This study was canceled in July 2002,
after it was proven that synthetic hormones increase risks of ovarian and breast
cancer as well as heart disease, blood clots and strokes. The findings were published
in JAMA, the Journal of the American Medical Association, and to this date have
not been disputed.
Side effects also include hairiness (abnormal hair growth on chin, chest), spots
(hyper pigmentation), a deep voice and enlargement of the clitoris, acne, irritability
and increased heart rate.
There are lot many desire creams available in the market without much effect on
the reduced desire.
Loss of desire can often be put right, but you need to look carefully at the causes
of the problem. This is usually overlooked by the allopathic practitioners.
In contrast homeopathic treatment gets to the root of the problem. It helps to treat the underlying condition which may be responsible
for low sex drive.
Homeopathic medicines are most useful for women as they help in balancing the female
hormonal system.
Homeopathy, being a mind-and-body medicine, treats the patients at the level of
the body as well as the mind, which is primarily essential for sexual dysfunction
cases.
Lack of sex drive or libido and inability to become aroused show good response to treatment with
homeopathy especially since the cause is psychological in most cases.
Another area where remedies can be of great help is dyspareunia or painful intercourse.
A large number of cases of dyspareunia show positive response after treatment and
adequate counseling of the patient.
How homeopathy helps

the part of the physician. The treatment is decided after thorough case taking of
the patient. Thus remedies of loss of sex drive or libido in females / female sexual arousal
disorder (FSAD) / hypoactive sexual desire disorder (HSDD) are designer made unlike

different.

What is loss of libido in females / Female Sexual Arousal Disorder (FSAD) / Hypoactive
Sexual Desire Disorder (HSDD)
A low libido refers to a lack of sexual desire or interest in having intercourse.
While it can affect both sexes, it is more commonly reported in women than in men.
It’s important not to confuse a low libido with an outright lack of ability to achieve
an orgasm.The problem with having a low libido is that it is often a result of sexual
thoughts becoming less frequent, arousal being slowed – resulting in an increased
time to reach climax, a psychological reluctance to engage in sexual activity, and
so on. The list, unfortunately, goes on.
Studies show that approximately one-third of the female population will, at some
time or another, experience a lack of libido. There is a vast array of reasons for
this to occur, and they are both physical and psychological.
The American Medical Association has estimated that several million US women suffer
from 'female sexual arousal disorder' (FSAD).
Causes
- Pain during intercourse or other sexual activity (vaginismus): When a woman experiences
an uncomfortable feeling or any sort of pain, they often wish to no longer initiate
sexual activity for a period of time. This is a subconscious effect. Pain may also
stem from health complications like a cyst or any type of infection or disease.
- Childbirth: After the birth of a child, hormone levels in a woman’s body are
out of whack. This is an extremely common reason why women have a lower libido.
- Obesity: Women who are classified as obese are often found to be lacking a variety
of sex hormones, which results in a disinterest in sexual activity.
- Pregnancy: Much like childbirth, hormones are affected throughout the pregnancy
period.
- Illness: Diabetes and other serious health problems may spawn several different
causes for a lack of sexual interest, such as dryness in the vagina, nerve damage,
and hormonal imbalance.
- Alcoholism: Contrary to popular belief, alcohol’s effects on the body DECREASE
a human being’s sex drive and hinder performance.
- Drug Use: Illegal substances (and even prescription / over-the-counter medication)
sometimes have the ability to counter-act a woman’s sex drive.
- Menopause: Last but not least is the change of life. While studies are not conclusive
on whether or not menopause diminishes female libido, it is important to consider
this anyway. Better safe than sorry.
A low libido is not only caused by physical issues, but by psychological ones as
well! In fact, it is often much more common for a woman to be suffering from a lack
of sexual desire due to a psychological cause, over a physical one.
Psychological causes
- A rocky relationship: Our quality of life is often directly related to the quality
of the relationship that exists between us and our partner. If your head is cluttered
with pressing issues related to your relationship or marriage, you won’t be
as interested in sex.
- The bills, chores and so on: The infamous lifestyle stressors such as paying the
bills, cleaning the house, managing life – these can be the cause of sexual dysfunction
in women.
- Anxiety, depression, loss of interest: These are probably the issues with the strongest
effect on the sex drive. You may consider seeking medical counsel to have these
problems rectified right away. When being prescribed a medication, inquire as to
the potential effect the drugs themselves may have on your sex live.
- Abuse - Sexual, emotional or physical - past or present: Obviously such encounters
during any point in your life will have an effect on your ability to develop an
interest in sex.
Symptoms
The symptoms and signs of low libido include reduced sexual desire, less frequent
sexual thoughts and fantasies, and a reluctance to initiate sex. A lack of desire
for sex still occurs even when there have been no sexual encounters for days, weeks,
or even months.
Other symptoms are:
- Headaches
- Chronic unexplained pain
- Muscle pain
- Dry mouth
- Fatigue
Diagnosis
Low libido can be diagnosed by taking the detailed history of the patient which
includes reduced sexual desire, less frequent sexual thoughts and fantasies, and
a reluctance to initiate sex.
Relationship issues with partner
Low libido can cause a range of relationship difficulties and may also affect self
esteem. It can lead to lethargy, depression, and other unhealthy mental states that
will have negative consequences on how the person lives her life.
