Is there an Ayurvedic alternative to Flibanserin tablet for low libido? - #16752

Anonymously

I was prescribed Flibanserin tablet a few weeks ago due to a persistent lack of sexual desire, and honestly, I feel really frustrated. I’ve always had a decent drive, but over the last year, it has completely disappeared. I don’t feel any urge, even in situations where I used to. My doctor said it could be hormonal, stress-related, or just part of aging, and suggested Flibanserin tablet to help, but I’m hesitant to take it. I read that Flibanserin tablet has side effects like dizziness, nausea, and fatigue. Plus, it’s something I’d need to take every day, and I don’t like relying on medication long-term. I prefer natural treatments when possible, and I’ve been wondering if Ayurveda has better, more holistic ways to help with this. I heard that libido issues can be linked to low Ojas or imbalanced Vata-Pitta. Could that be the reason why I feel this way? I do have a lot of stress and anxiety, which might be making things worse. My sleep isn’t great, and I feel exhausted during the day. I also tend to have dry skin and digestion issues, like bloating and constipation. Could all of this be connected? I’m looking for an approach that doesn’t just “force” my body into functioning but actually restores balance naturally. Are there Ayurvedic herbs that work like Flibanserin tablet, but without the side effects? Would Ashwagandha, Shatavari, or Safed Musli be helpful in my case? Should I be making dietary or lifestyle changes to bring back my natural desire? Also, are there any specific Ayurvedic therapies or oils that might help with this issue? I really want to feel normal again, but I don’t want to rely on Flibanserin tablet if there’s a natural way to fix the root cause. Would love any Ayurvedic insights on this!

In Ayurveda, a lack of sexual desire can indeed be linked to imbalances in Ojas, the vital essence that governs strength, vitality, and immunity, or imbalances in the doshas, especially Vata and Pitta. Stress, anxiety, poor sleep, and digestive issues like bloating can further deplete Ojas, leading to a reduced libido. To restore balance naturally, herbs like Ashwagandha and Shatavari are highly recommended. Ashwagandha helps reduce stress, improve energy, and balance Vata, while Shatavari supports reproductive health and nourishes the tissues, enhancing vitality. Safed Musli is another herb known for its aphrodisiac properties, helping to restore energy and balance sexual function. Along with these, adopting a diet rich in nourishing foods, including ghee, nuts, and whole grains, can help rebuild Ojas. Meditation, yoga, and pranayama (breathing exercises) can also help manage stress and balance Vata. Ayurvedic oils like Brahmi oil for the scalp and body can help with relaxation and rejuvenation, aiding in restoring both mental and physical vitality. To support your body’s natural function, it’s important to focus on restoring balance, improving digestion, and calming the mind rather than relying on synthetic medications.
