Scientists have revealed that they are one step closer to developing a female version of Viagra to tackle lack of sexual desire in women.
The male version is legendary for helping men overcome sexual dysfunction, however a women's version of the little blue pill has proven hard to develop as the problem of not being able to orgasm is far more complex in women, covering issues such as lack of desire, emotional or mental health problems and physical changes which make sexual intercourse unpleasant.
Over half of women will experience sexual dysfunction at some point in their lives. Now Pfizer, the same company which makes Viagra, have published details of research that could lead to a new drug to enhance female arousal. The new drug they have developed is thought to aid arousal by increasing blood flow to the pelvis - however the company don't have any plans at the moment to develop the drug for release.
