It’s unfair that  people talk more about male libido problems than they do about women. Many doctors seem to dump decreased sex drive right in with all the other menopausal symptoms. They tell you that hormone replacement therapy (HRT) is the answer.
 
Well, we all know how that turned out. HRT isn’t the “cure-all” it was made out to be.  In fact, millions of women who agreed to HRT in the hope of recapturing their waning sexual desire may have actually been making the situation worse by not addressing the real underlying problem. But there’s no reason to just keep letting it go downhill. Now there’s a new formula that can help you boost a flagging libido by addressing a deficiency you may not even know you have.
 
“Male” hormone may be just as important to women as oestrogen

When you think of female hormones, oestrogen usually comes to mind. But in reality women naturally produce both female sex hormones, like oestrogen and progesterone and male sex hormones (called androgens) like testosterone.
 
We know that women’s oestrogen and progesterone production wanes with age and then drops dramatically after menopause. Now we know that the same thing happens with testosterone – and that this decline can have equally significant effects on women’s overall well-being.
 
In fact, the effects are so significant that US doctors at Princeton University have characterised the symptoms it causes as a syndrome: Female Androgen Insufficiency Syndrome (FAIS).Symptoms of FAIS include unexplained fatigue, decreased well-being and general malaise, blunted motivation and diminished sexual function.
 
Before  menopause, women produce testosterone in their ovaries and adrenal glands. While some women have abnormally low testosterone production even before menopause, possibly due to problems with adrenal function, in the years approaching menopause all women’s testosterone production begins to wane.
 
Herbal prostate therapies may help women normalise testosterone levels

There are several natural products that can help women boost their testosterone levels naturally, by maximising the body’s production and utilisation of this important hormone. You’ve probably already heard of saw palmetto, which can help men battle prostate problems such as an enlarged prostate (BPH).

What you may not know is that part of the reason why saw palmetto works so well against BPH is its ability to affect androgen metabolism. Saw palmetto inhibits prostate cells’ ability to bind testosterone, which feeds prostate growth. By inhibiting the uptake of testosterone, saw palmetto increases levels of free testosterone. Currently there is little scientific research to confirm saw palmetto’s effect on women, but it has been used to treat urinary tract infections (UTI) and to relieve menstrual symptoms. And palmetto has been used in folk medicine for centuries as an aphrodisiac.
 
Nettle is another natural therapy often used by men for prostate problems. It has also long been valued as medicinal, particularly for treating UTIs and increasing the production of milk in women.
