Switching to bupropion (Wellbutrin SR, Wellbutrin XL) - a different type of antidepressant - usually improves sex drive and is sometimes prescribed for women with sexual interest/arousal disorder.Īlong with counseling, your doctor may prescribe a medication to boost your libido. For example, antidepressants such as paroxetine (Paxil) and fluoxetine (Prozac, Sarafem) may lower sex drive. Your doctor will want to review the medications you're already taking, to see if any of them tend to cause sexual side effects. Couples counseling that addresses relationship issues may also help increase feelings of intimacy and desire. Your therapist or counselor likely will provide recommendations for reading materials or couples' exercises. Therapy often includes education about sexual response and techniques. Talking with a sex therapist or counselor skilled in addressing sexual concerns can help with low sex drive. Recommendations may include sex education, counseling, and sometimes medication and hormone therapy.
Most women benefit from a treatment approach aimed at the many causes behind this condition.
