There are a number of reasons why many women experience low
sex drive. Women suffering from
disorders that affect the nervous system such as Diabetes, Parkinson's disease,
and stroke; these affect the sex drive in women. Certain medications like birth
control pills, blood-pressure pills, and anti-depressants, can cause hormonal
imbalance and this causes low libido in women.
Any type of hormonal imbalance will also affect sex drive
like women who are experiencing menopause, are pregnant or
postnatal may experience low sex drive, as a result of fluctuating levels of
the hormones estrogen and prolactin. For some women, low sex drive is due to a
psychological or emotional issue and the most common cause is stress/anxiety.
Being overweight and inactive are also some of the causes of low
sexual desire. It is therefore necessary to exercise often or at least walk
every day for 20-30 minutes per day as this can improve libido and sex drive.
If there is poor blood circulation to the genetalia, it makes
arousal difficult and makes intercourse painful and unpleasant. There are herbal supplements available
which help blood flow to the genital and boost libido and increase sex drive in
women in an effective and safe way.
