Viagara: There are some small studies which support the use of viagra (sildenafil) in women. Remember sex is more to do with general health and psychological wellbeing.

Testosterone: A small amount in cream form can be used. However, to prevent strophic vaginitis, an estrogen must be used, and with Progesterone if the uterus is intact. You should get total and free testosterone before and after treatment is started. I have treated hundreds of women in various combinations of this regimen. Only a few have quit!
