Five Natural Methods Increase Sex Drive in Women

Several natural techniques improve women's level of sexual desire just as surely as newly developed sex-enhancement drugs, and without side effects.
One of those ambivalent new drugs is Intrinsa, which comes in the form of a testosterone patch. In a recent study that appeared in the New England Journal of Medicine, women who wore the patch had three times as many gratifying sexual episodes as women who wore a placebo patch (an average of 2.1 per four weeks for the testosterone group versus 0.7 for the placebo group).

Clinton's stand on Plan B

Perhaps the best way to make a “no”—as in not a yes decision, is, in fact, to make no decision—preventing the yes vote from ever happening. Many are arguing that’s been the tactic of the FDA over the past two years with regard to making available over the counter the Plan B emergency contraceptive pill...referred to as “E.C.”

Birth Control Options

It’s back on the road again for 31 year old Jill Pearson. Jill, a technology trainer, travels extensively for work, but, monthly painful periods which included crushing migraines, were making her business trips unbearable. She decided to try Seasonale, one of the newer oral contraceptives, allowing her to get a period just four times a year. “I have total control of when I get my period, you know I get to decide, do I want it this week, do I want it next week, do I want to wait another month until I have it, and it just makes me in total control,” says Jill Pearson. Seasonale and Seasonique are two innovative contraceptive regimens offering fewer periods over the course of a year. “Women are looking for options that will allow them to have better controlled menstrual cycles so that they can have less of the PMS, be more active and not really be tied down based on what time of the month it is, says gynecologist, Dr. Nancy Roberson Jasper of Columbia University.”

Birth Control Options and Myths

Gilian Behar is busy planning for her October wedding. Theres the gown, the catering hall, flowers and the choosing of birth control. I feel like I cant get pregnant now, says Gilian. Gilian and her fiance, Larson, definitely want a family one day, but agree that they want to enjoy their first few newlywed years as a couple. Gilian has taken the pill, which contains the hormones estrogen and progesterone, for 15 years. I have no idea what the pill is doing to my body and I wonder if it is going to be a problem when we do decide to start a family, if its going to be difficult for me to get pregnant, says Gilian.

Plan B Fall-out

There continues to be response and fallout as a result of a congressional investigation into the FDA’s rejection of allowing the Plan B morning after pill to be sold over the counter without a prescription. There are several issues which need to looked at more closely: Did the FDA in fact act on political motives solely? Did the orders come from higher up? And why, when contraception is so accepted in this country, is this contraceptive pill being singled out as a problem, and in fact, being treated rather as an abortion pill, which it isn’t.

Teenage Contraception

The debate in state legislatures on teenage contraception centers around one question- should parents be notified if their daughters go to a family planning clinic for contraception or treatment of a sexually transmitted disease? New research helps shed light on the impact such a law might have. In 2001, more than 900,000 female minors obtained family planning services at federally funded clinics.

Emergency Contraception Study

It's one of the most controversial medical issues: the use of the morning after pill as en emergency contraception method to prevent pregnancy. There is significant opposition to the drug treatment designed as an emergency contraception method, to stop an unintended pregnancy in its tracks. Now, new research puts the kibosh to one opposing argument which many have used: that emergency contraception will promote unprotected sex, and thus increase the spread of sexually transmitted diseases.
