Hi

I am a new member here and I love this site.  I have been reading everything on here for a couple of days now and found the link ** from the pharmacy solutions website.  The sexuality site sells the Libido Lotion and I was wondering if anyone has tried it and if it worked?

My libido is pretty much gone - I am 44 and have most of the symptoms of peri-men.  The libido phase is most depressing and I wish I could "wake up" something down there.  LOL

Anxious to hear from anyone regarding this.....

Thanks!!

Hmmm...I guess no reply means no one has tried it.

Thanks anyway.

Hi Shawna, probably either no-one has tried it, or else they haven't noticed your posting. I know it's not nice if no-one answers you, so just saying 'hi', though I have nothing constructive to say!!I am lucky that lack of libido is not one of my symptoms, I do know others for who this is a problem though. Hope you find some help

Hi Gemini

Thanks for the "hello"!

Consider yourself lucky that low libido is not one of your symptoms.  I haven't had that desire for awhile now, but the weird thing is-a couple of months ago it was back for a few weeks.  

My husband is a sweetheart and very understanding, but I just want the old me back again.  It is very frustrating.

Testosterone replacement has helped me get the old "me" back!

Hey, has testosterone replacement caused any other effects worth mentioning, besides rekindled sexual feelings?  I'd like to know.  Interestingly, my sexual desire is intact...I'm hornier than ever, in fact...but emotionally ran out of all desire for my DH! In my case, lack of sexual interest would be a blessing.

Mostly the rekindled sexual interest and feeling of being more "myself"---don't feel like I'm keeping going on sheer will power---backbone is back!  

On your note though, right before my hysterectomy, when I was in the middle of perimenopause--I had very strong libio--apparently because the estrogen was soo depressed the natural testosterone was predominate.  After my full hysterectomy, that strongly diminished and then kept getting less and less.  Estrace help my emotions and physical problems, but it took the testosterone to complete the picture.

Whatever your plans this week,  mark your calendars for my guest Thurs., Nov. 14th, 9 PM, ET (click on her name for more information)  --   Elizabeth Gunther Stewart, M.D. is a gynecologist and director of the Stewart-Forbes Vulvovaginal Specialty Service at Harvard Vanguard Medical Associates. Dr. Stewart is also Assistant Professor of Obstetrics and Gynecology at Harvard Medical School and a member of Brigham and Women’s Hospital staff. She speaks extensively about vulvovaginal disease to medical professionals. Her perspectives as a full-time vulvovaginal practitioner, a researcher, and a teacher shape her prominence as one of the leading voices advocating the emerging importance of her specialty. Author of The V Book: A Doctor's Guide To Complete Vulvovaginal Health, she's compiled complete coverage of the facts about the healthy vulva, vagina and vestibule. Dr. Stewart discusses that part of your body. Vagina is hardly a household word, whe writes. Written because so many women are unfamiliar with their bodies, the book's comprehensive content separates truth from popular belief about yeast infections (they are harder to diagnose and self-treat than women have been led to believe), discusses the leading cause of vaginal complaints (bacterial vaginosis), and what foods to avoid with a bladder inflammation (spicy, chocolate, citrus fruits and sour cream among them).

This is not a gynecological sourcebook. It's written for the average woman who needs more information about vulvovaginal health.   Explanations include vaginitis and skin disorders. Though not part of your genitalia, the urinary tract can have two pain problems -- bladder infections and interstitial cystitis-- that produce V symptoms and V-disorders, the various sorts of vaginitis (vaginal irritation usually caused by an infection): yeast infections, bacterial vaginosis, trichomonas, and a roundup of other types, such as atrophic vagnitis and strep vaginitis. The most common problem, the various sorts of vaginitis (vaginal irritation usually caused by an infection): yeast infections, bacterial vaginosis, trichomonas, and then a roundup of other types, such as atrophic vagnitis and strep vaginitis.

There’s a major V problem -- pain. Vulvodynia (vulvar pain) and vestibulodynia (pain in the vestibule) are just beginning to be recognized by doctors, but they have plagued many women for years. Fortunately, there are some exciting advances in their treatment. Sexual Healing on maintaining sexuality when intercourse is painful.
