Fibanserin is the female Viagra and there’s a very good chance it will be approved by the FDA this August. As we age we begin to develop physical problems and some of these can affect our sex lives. Men have had a little help with Viagra for many years and pretty soon women will have the same advantage.

Fibanserin was created to help women with sexual arousal by triggering dopamine, norepinephrine, and serotonin. This will be the first medication on the market to increase a woman’s sex drive. The only side effects of the drug are dizziness, nausea, and sleepiness.
This is a huge step towards woman’s rights and sex equality because if men can take a little pill to improve their sex life, why shouldn’t women? The truth is that women enjoy sex and they should. But, as women grow older, they enjoy it even more; usually after menopause or after getting a hysterectomy because they no longer have the fear of getting pregnant.
Many times as women age, they have changes to their vagina; such as it shortens and narrows. The walls become thinner and stiffer, so even if they want to have sexual intercourse, they can’t because it’s not comfortable. Plus as you age, you produce less vaginal lubrication and this can affect sexual pleasure and comfort. Medical problems like arthritis, diabetes, and other chronic diseases can also interfere with your sex life.
In a 2013 study among 57-85 year olds, researchers found that sex and interest in sex does decrease when seniors are in their 70’s, but of those surveyed, more than a quarter of those over the age of 85 reported still having sex. The survey found that the lack of sexual intercourse in women had a lot to do with health issues or the lack of a partner.
Things have changed a lot in the last couple of years. More men are staying at home and taking care of the children, while women take the higher paying jobs. Women are also waiting later in life to have children or making the decision of not having children at all. Having sex before marriage is not the big taboo it used to be in the Latino community. Things are changing and this is a big step towards sexual health and what women rightfully deserve. We’re keeping our fingers crossed and hopefully the female viagra will change the sex lives of the many women and their partners.
