Herbal Medicine for Sex: Dos and Don'ts for Achieving Optimum Results

Writer: Stella OsseStella Osse

There is an array of herbal medicines designed to prepare you for sexual intimacy that can assist in reaching orgasm. These herbs have various benefits for both men and women alike, including increasing libido.

Horny goat weed (Epimedium) is another plant with aphrodisiac properties. It contains an ingredient called icariin that acts like testosterone to increase sexual desire.

Fenugreek is an herbaceous spice with proven sexual enhancement properties for both men and women, including antioxidant benefits.

Damiana

Damiana (Turnera diffuse) is an herbal aphrodisiac for both men and women that acts as a central nervous system stimulant. It may help improve libido, sexual performance, and fatigue, as well as treat vaginal dryness; also used for orgasm stimulation and increasing vaginal dryness treatment in women. Available as tea, capsules, or tinctures, it can also be combined with Cola nitida and saw palmetto to create a formula for herbal medicine for sex.

Users have reported that damiana can increase libido and enhance sexual pleasure for both women and men, likely by helping reduce stress levels, which may negatively impact sexual function and satisfaction. Furthermore, damiana may help relieve menstrual cramps and PMS symptoms as it has diuretic properties as well.

Ginkgo Biloba

Ginkgo biloba is an ancient tree species containing natural compounds to improve blood flow and treat erectile dysfunction (ED) in men. Diet and exercise can further increase its benefits.

Studies commonly use EGb 761 extract of Ginkgo leaf as the main active ingredient, consisting of two key functional components, terpene lactones, and flavone glycosides, which may account for its therapeutic effects.

Ginkgo biloba doesn't help prevent memory loss caused by antidepressant medications or lower the risk of cardiovascular disease in older adults, nor can it control the loss of cognitive function associated with chemotherapy treatments, yet most people find its consumption safe.

Tribulus Terrestris

Tribulus or "puncture vine," as it's more commonly known, is a Mediterranean plant native that produces fruit that contains testosterone-stimulating molecules. Research has demonstrated this can boost libido and aid with fertility issues.

Studies indicate that Tribulus may help improve erectile function by increasing blood flow to the genital area and supporting healthy testosterone levels, ultimately improving sperm quality and quantity.

Horny Goat Weed (Epimedium) is another herbal treatment for sexual dysfunction that has been proven effective. Studies have demonstrated this herb's effectiveness at increasing sexual desire and performance among both men and women by stimulating hormones that increase sexual desire and libido.

Tribulus may help with early ejaculation. To be most effective, however, a holistic approach should be taken that addresses any underlying issues that might be contributing to sexual dysfunction. Tribulus and Horny goat weed can be taken along with other herbs beneficial for sexual health, such as Maca Root.

Avocados

Avocados are packed with fiber, which assists digestion and prevents constipation. Furthermore, avocados contain two protective phytochemicals against UV damage called lutein and zeaxanthin; potassium from avocados also helps keep blood pressure under control while relieving tension in blood vessels.

Avocado oil can be used both in cooking and as a skin moisturizer. Avocado fruit also boasts high levels of folate, which may help relieve symptoms associated with depression while protecting against osteoarthritis and osteoporosis.

Avocado should be avoided by those allergic to latex as its protein contains elements similar to what's found in Brazilian rubber tree pollen. You should consult with a healthcare provider before trying herbal sex enhancement supplements; many have little scientific support for effectiveness. Chuchuhuasi bark, traditionally used by both women and men alike in South America to enhance sexual libido, has also been shown to increase fertility.

Pomegranate juice

Pomegranate juice is an energizing aphrodisiac that can boost both testosterone and libido. Its abundant antioxidant content may also help lower your blood pressure - an especially critical benefit for older men whose high blood pressure increases their risk of erectile dysfunction.

Queen Margaret University researchers in Edinburgh discovered that drinking pomegranate juice increased salivary testosterone levels by 24 percent, possibly due to its rich nitrate source, improving blood flow toward the genital area.

Conclusion

Pomegranate has yet to receive much scientific evidence to back its claims that it can help with ED, but it may still be worth trying. Remember that its high sugar and caloric intake should only be consumed by those following healthy lifestyle habits who can tolerate it.
