Is medicine doctors who will play the sexual desires of women found? Linda Geddis review the latest developments that have occurred in this area
Barbara Gattuso was in the late thirties when I noticed for the first time a change in the behavior of the sexual towards her husband, Greg. Gattuso says: "I did not talk to him about sex at all, but it was not just something I do not care at all
Over the years, become Gattuso, who is now 66 years old, skilled in repudiation of her husband in order to avoid that rejects frankly, they often harbor to bed early and wake up before him
She adds: "After a while, became a wonder: 'What's going on here? I love my husband, and our marriage came in an incredible way, and we have wonderful children; what happens
The problem lies in the libido
Most of those who live long-term relationships of chilled initial feeling is suffering, but Gattuso did not have the sexual desire of the foundation
This was not only against her husband, were not as sexy feel any sense to anyone else
Some scientists sexual self Such fluctuations in libido is normal - especially whenever women advanced in age, while others believe that the lack of these desires is a medical condition caused by an imbalance of chemicals in the brain.
There are probably currently medication to address this situation. In the third and fourth of the month of June next year, will be held Food and Drug Administration meeting of the advisory committee to know its opinion as to whether members of the Committee agree on the use of the drug "flibanserin," which is described as "Viagra women", for its use to patients or not. A case of controversy about this medicine, between supporters and opponents to use it
Defect in the session
What is the reason if the lack of desire, and how a drug "flibanserin" to handle that problem? It is clear that only women of age suffer from sexual problems with age, and perhaps the broad popular for "Viagra" is proof of that
Stephen Stahl, a psychologist at the University of California at San Diego says: "There is a saying in medicine that there are three categories of erectile dysfunction: the erection, erectile dysfunction and erectile dysfunction. As in women, there are three reasons for impotence: lust, lust, and lust
Scientists know that it comes full cycle of energy in the brain (the reward circuit), while the cause of the weakness of lust - and even the origin of lust in the I. place remains a mystery baffles scientists.
According to one theory that the so-called "disorder of sexual desire" also -oaaraf term sexual arousal with disturbance women-result in the inability to stop the work of the parts in the frontal lobes of the brain responsible for dealing with everyday tasks, such as remember send a congratulatory birthday or solve the problem of card in the workplace. As a result, the curb reward cycle, responsible for dealing with the motives and instincts and pleasures
Once it is proven the success of the drug "Viagra" to treat impotence in men (not to mention the profits earned by the company that developed the drug), racing frantically to find a similar drug for women - but on this medicine is used to treat brain and not genital began
The "flibanserin" in the introduction to drugs that are used in this regard, and was initially used to treat depression, and found that a few effects on the changing mood of the people. However, the women who have volunteered to conduct clinical trials for the treatment of depressed participants said side effects, including increased libido
It seems that "flibanserin" is working to change the balance in the signal molecules (vectors nerve signals) in circles reward -opalthdid substance dopamine and noradrenaline and serotonin
Stahl says, "is the belief either that this drug restores balance to its nature or compensates for what is not Btabiei in order to preserve a balance in circles reward. It is extremely unlikely that it allows the women decoding neural circuits that inhibit the tendency sexual impulse in the frontal lobes of the brain link
Renewed lust
Although it had stopped the use of the drug for the treatment of depression, to limited effect, but he quickly re-testing it in order to enhance sexual desire for women with sexual desire disorder
And even though the initial experiments to follow up the effect of the drug have shown that women have an increase in the number of participants said "times of sexual gratification," but they did not display same effect any mention about sexual desire. Consequently, Food and Drug Administration rejected the drug in 2010
After further studies, showing that strengthens the libido, but modestly. Susan Scanln, President of "even the score" campaign, advocacy to find a drug to treat says libido deficit disorder: "The problem is: How do you measure any improvement?" (It is worth mentioning that Scanln receive a symbolic salary paid by a pharmaceutical company in order to preside over this campaign
Scanln indicate that the base rate is low in general, and adds: "the practice of American women for sex rate is three times a month, if not exercised (the patient's) sex three times a month, does it mean that the drug has failed
In fact, women who treated drug "flibanserin" They had sex an average of 2.5 times during the period of 28 days, she said, compared to 1.5 for women who suffer from sexual desire of those who did not take the drug inability disease
Sure, some of the patients who had undergone drug testing believe that they had witnessed a marked improvement. Gattuso to be made by the drug test in 2011, and initially dealt with drug and placebo, where she said he did not have any effect - in spite of strenuous efforts to re-ignite her sexuality
At the end of the drug test period, be able to obtain the real medicine. Gattuso says: "During the two weeks, I felt that I am a completely different person. I wake up in the middle of the night and I embrace my husband. Adhesion and desire and that interdependence, all of which were found by a hundred percent
However, one of the worrying things is the side effects that have accompanied this improvement - including drowsiness, dizziness and nausea. But Scanln indicate that these complications accompanied by eating less than Viagra and other erectile dysfunction in men deficit treatments
Scanln says: "Let's take a look at the complications of side covers 26 drug licensed to treat impotence in men. Among them we find, heart attack, blindness, sudden death
Others fear a license to use "flibanserin" to encourage women to seek medical treatment for the problem might be better solved by taking specialist advice relations between adults, or by addressing other issues in their lives such as hard work or depression.
Says Cynthia Graham, Lecture health psychology at the University of Southampton in the United Kingdom: "When it comes to sexual desire, the relationship itself play an important role, Valamadmon very important. Situational factors, such as mood and atmosphere isolated are important things, too
With all that, Graham agree on the possibility of benefiting from drug treatment in certain cases, and says: "I honestly believe that in some women the problem in sexual desire, and in the end may benefit some women of a certain drug treatment. But we must have this property with clinical significance really. We also need to know more about the side effects
Some fear could result in rejection of "flibanserin" as a medicine to put an obstacle to attempts to find other drugs, may be more effective alternatives.
Last Hope
Not a hint, certainly, to speed up finding a solution before the exclusion of many other factors, such as fatigue, the brunt of the work, the relationship with a life partner and taking drugs and other medications. Stahl says: "If you have suffered a woman of sexual desire deficit, it should ask themselves: Do you suffer from it toward her husband only, while, for example, tend to her neighbor? Or is it in deficit and there are no desire? Will not benefit the pill as a treatment of the relationship of conjugal troubled
Gattuso agree that there is a field of psychological and social counseling when there are real problems in the relationship, but insists on the weak role of this issue for the marital relationship with. He says: "When you suffer from a medical condition such as diabetes, you can talk for a long time without any impact on the situation. The sexual desire disorder in women deficit is the result of an imbalance in the brain
Patients like her see that a drug "flibanserin" is the last professions. Gattuso says: "When they told me that he will stop the use of the drug, did not upset for myself only, but for hundreds of thousands of women who do not find what helps them to overcome this situation. They are in need of this drug
