 Is There A Female Viagra?
Search the word female Viagra and you will be surprised at the hits that your search engine will yield. There are 2.7 million hits for the word female Viagra. The funny thing is that there is as yet no official release of any product by the name of “female Viagra” from the company that manufactures Viagra or any other company for that matter. Pfizer, the manufacturer of Viagra, has made the erectile dysfunction pill available in the market for ten years now. The little blue pill has come a long way from its initial release in 1998. It has also helped a lot of erectile dysfunction patients over the years, that rush to the pharmacy once they obtain their prescription to buy viagra.
Viagra is the first and the leading erectile dysfunction drug. A lot of patients suffering from erectile dysfunction prefer Viagra because of its safety track record and its efficacy. Men who have difficulty getting an erection or maintaining such erection up to the completion of the sexual act get a little help from Viagra because the drug increases the flow of blood to the genitals. Those in medical research believe that female Viagra can work for women the same way that it has worked for men, this time by increasing the blood flow to the genitals thereby encouraging lubrication.
The female members of society have continuously clamored for a female Viagra to respond to their needs. However, there is as yet no female Viagra in the market today but a lot of companies are definitely doing research with a view of being the first one to introduce female Viagra in the market. But take a look at what your search engine yields and you will be surprised that while most websites just use the word female Viagra to attract attention, there are indeed websites that claim to be selling female Viagra. Women may fall for this false advertisement especially those who are eager to be more sexually active.
Dr. Edward Laumann of the University of Chicago claims that while there are men suffering from erectile dysfunction (31%), there are more women who are suffering from the condition (43%).If this is true then you will understand how desperate people are to come up with a female Viagra. In fact, it is believed that over $3 billion will be earmarked for products aimed at improving women’s sex lives.
While men’s sexual dysfunction is focused on the failure to get or maintain an erection, women’s sexual dysfunction is focused on lack of a woman’s ability to have sexual desire and to achieve an orgasm. However, there are people who believe that the key to a woman’s sexual dysfunction is most often behind her ears. Which means the problem is not really physical but emotional and psychological.
However, this does not discount the fact that the cause is not really physical. Sexual dysfunction in women can be caused by thyroid disorders, hypertension, neurological and other diseases. This is the reason why the search for the female Viagra is on. And whoever gets to the finish line first will definitely reap huge profits. |
