How can you care for yourself when you have decreased female libido?
- Tell your doctor about all the medicines you take. This includes vitamins, supplements, and herbal remedies.
- Use vaginal lubricant during sex. Examples are Astroglide and K-Y Jelly.
- Increase the time you and your partner spend touching each other before sex. This is called foreplay.
- Before sex, take a warm bath. This can relax you and reduce stress or anxiety.
- Try types of sexual activity other than intercourse.
- Be honest with your sex partner about what you enjoy during sex.
