Women: How to Naturally Boost Your Sex Drive

There are a variety of reasons why a woman's sex drive can go down the toilet.  If you are one of these women, you're probably thinking something like, "Maybe I'm just not very sexual anymore," or "Maybe my age is catching up with me."  Maybe, but probably not.  Physical problems, hormone changes, psychological problems and relationship issues can all be a factors.  Here are some natural treatments and changes worth trying.

Lifestyle Changes
Healthy lifestyle changes can make a big difference in your desire for sex:

■Exercise. Regular aerobic exercise and strength training can increase your stamina, improve your body image, elevate your mood and enhance your libido.

■Stress less. Finding a better way to cope with work stress, financial stress and daily hassles can enhance your sex drive.

■Be happier. A sense of personal well-being and happiness are important to sexual interest. So find ways to bring a little extra joy to your world.

■Strengthen your pelvic muscles. Pelvic floor exercises (Kegel exercises) can improve your awareness of the muscles involved in pleasurable sexual sensations and increase your libido. To perform these exercises, tighten your pelvic muscles as if you're stopping a stream of urine. Hold for a count of five, relax and repeat. Do these exercises several times a day.


Relationship changes you and your partner can make
For women, better emotional intimacy often leads to better sexual intimacy:

■Communicate with your partner. Conflicts and disagreements are a natural part of any relationship. Couples who learn to fight fair and communicate in an open, honest way usually maintain a stronger emotional connection, which can lead to better sex. Communicating about sex also is important. Talking about your likes and dislikes can set the stage for greater sexual intimacy.

■Seek counseling. Talking with a sex therapist or counselor skilled in addressing sexual concerns can help with low sex drive. Therapy often includes education about sexual response and techniques and recommendations for reading materials or couples' exercises.

■Set aside time for intimacy. Scheduling sex into your calendar may seem contrived and boring. But making intimacy a priority can help put your sex drive back on track.

■Add a little spice to your sex life. Try a different sexual position, a different time of day or a different location for sex. If you and your partner are open to experimentation, sex toys and fantasy can help rekindle your sexual sizzle.
 
I also suggest a daily multivitamin with iron.  Many women are iron deficient or anemic which can cause them to feel weak or tired.  That puts a damper on anyones sex drive.
