homeopathy/natural remedy for low sex drive??

[tostaky]

because after two DCs i just dont feel like it anymore and DP is a bit unhappy about the whole thing....

I asked Dr Google but theres so many dodgy sites out there, im asking MN

i have read that gingko bilboa and zinc could help and in homeopathy, natra natricum something and agnus casta (i think)

anyone got any luck with these?
any other recommendation...

i cant bring myself to make an appointment with a homeopath/naturopath
thx!

I'm not really what you are looking for but didn't want this to go unanswered. You are unlikely to get homoeopathy recommendations here as they are not taken very seriously by most people. In this instance though it might not be a bad thing to try (taking something to help sex drive- therefore thinking about sex and if it has worked, do I feel sexy yet? - might make you feel more like it), but don't pay over the odds for what will effectively be a placebo effect.

As for other recommendations - perhaps get a blood test done at the GP to make sure you are not genuinely lacking something like iron or if it could be a contraception side effect. Also exercise can help or a good nights sleep. Good luck, maybe someone will be along soon with better advice.

You might see a lot of patronising opinions on homeopathy here. Many MN-ers are against it. (Have they tried it?)

Read articles like this one in the Huff Post:
www.huffingtonpost.com/dana-ullman/fibromyalgia-homeopathy_b_781144.html

The article explains how successful homeopathy was in treating fibromyalgia (admittedly not your problem but studies are starting to show scientific benefits of homeopathy).

"Well-designed high quality scientific studies published in the British Medical Journal and in Rheumatology (the journal of the British Society for Rheumatology) have confirmed the real benefits of homeopathic medicines as distinct from a placebo."

Anti homeopathy points of view are not difficult to come by, but I definitely think that its a method of treatment worth considering. For a start homeopathy aims to treat the physical as well as the mental / emotional as per chinese medicine. This is particularly helpful when it comes to sex drive which is notoriously difficult to treat with conventional medecine - particularly for women.

I would say go find yourself a homeopath though. This isn't like aromatherapy - you need to find someone who knows what they are talking about. Self prescribing with homeopathic remedies is difficult and unlikely to be successful.

Agree with the comments above re: diet and exercise though. And a good nights sleep. All help too.

herbal pills VIAFEM are said to be for female sex drive: increasing sensitivity, lubrication, and blood flow to the genital area

I did have some luck with siberian ginsing
