Vyleesi Is the Newest Medication For Female Libido Enhancement


Vyleesi Is the Newest Medication For Female Libido Enhancement
 

Females have more trouble with libido and desire than they do with arousal and orgasm, a low desire medical condition called hypoactive sexual desire disorder that occurs in 10% of all women prior to menopause.

Although male desire is often simultaneous with erection, females need to have their interest piqued before they lubricate and physically desire sex.

This is why Viagra and Cialis are effective for males, but physiologically not designed for female sexuality.

So the ‘Pink Pills’ have to work on a unique pathway that involves the brain, not the vagina, where as Viagra and Cialis stimulate the penis before the brain.

Vylessi is the newest Pink Pill to win FDA approval.
 
Addyi was the first medication to be approved for low female libido. There are a few non-FDA approved herbal medications that have shown some promise, but in most studies they didn't out perform placebo.

Dr. Trupin was one of the Principal Investigators when the medication was with Palatin Technologies, it’s development as a pre-sex injectable medication has been studied by AMAG which is brining it to market this fall.  While this technology may be right for many women the treatment of any active gynecologic, urinary, or hormonal issues may also be part of the cure for hypoactive sexual desire disorder.

Passing Your Uterine Lining, Menstrual Period Norms

Decidual Cast Periods can be fairly easy, passing some tissue at a time, or off can come the whole lining in one piece called a decidual cast. Generally the lining of the uterus is only 6-8 mm thick at the time of the menstrual period, and it is shed gradually, a few cells at a time. The decidual cast is when the entire lining passes spontaneously.  It's not uncommon, but it usually both uncomfortable, and alarming to some. But us women are designed to have some sort of periods  Or Not? We have to pass tissue each month. Or Not? Are they good for us? Or Not? Do we want them? Or Not? Is this something that is individual? Or Not? It's a complex topic that I will be discussing a lot over my time in this blog. So lets start with basics: How much do we bleed and what are we loosing, and just what was this that the patient passed? And another basic: track your periods, and the Women's Health Practice site http://www.womenshealthpractice.com/media/pdf/menstrual_chart.pdf you

Endocervial polyps

2 cm Endometrial Polyp After Removal Polyps in the cervix are almost never cancerous, but can bleed or get infected and should be removed. The are not directly related to an endometrial or uterine polyp (which is a precancerous condition), but your gyno may want to make sure these two conditions do not co-exist.  

Irregular Periods can Be the Sign of Other Medical Conditions

Heavy menstrual Bleeding Menstrual Period Norms The menstrual period's normal physiologic function to shed the lining and then prepare the lining for a pregnancy. Thus a sample of the lining under the microsope looks like it has glands within tissue. It’s hard to know if this is a heavy period, or one that is really so heavy that you need treatment without really checking completely with your gyno! Experts have used a number of definitions to determine if the period you are having is too heavy. Your perception is important. The actual amount of blood lost is important, but that can be determined by collecting each pad and weighing them before and after blood collection. So gynos have struggled with how to determine the formal definition of heavy bleeding. A basic check up, and a basic blood count, is not going to really make your version of heavy periods fit the typical “FDA” approved definition because that is defined by the exact amount of blood lost, which is los
