Something revolutionary is taking place in the women’s health world. For the first time, the FDA has approved a drug designed to solve the sexual health issues of women. Though men’s sexual health has long been a subject of pharmaceutical concern, the subject has long been neglected for women. Now, Addyi is changing that. Curious about what this new pill does and whether it might be right for you? Learn more with this guide from the offices of trusted southwestern Ohio gynecologist and obstetrician Dr. William M. Jamieson, M.D.:

  • "The Female Viagra": While it’s been called “The Female Viagra,” Addyi and Viagra are actually quite different. While Viagra treats a lack of physical arousal, Addyi treats a lack of arousal in general. Approved as a treatment for “hypoactive sexual disorder,” Addyi is prescribed to address what’s commonly referred to as low libido. It’s a drug to boost your desire for sex, not to enhance sexual performance.
  • Who’s It For? Addyi is for women who are experiencing distress or trouble in their relationships due to low sexual desire. It’s important to note, however, that a loss of libido might be contributed to other factors. Women whose loss of sexual appetite stems from a medical condition, a psychiatric condition, the side effects of medication, or problems within a relationship won’t benefit from Addyi. Talking to your gynecologist will help you determine if Addyi is the right solution for you.
