Guest guest Posted April 29, 2005 Report Share Posted April 29, 2005 Hi, I'm only 25, but since being on the pill I have completely lost my libido! I was on the pill for 7 months, although I have stopped taking it about 5 months back. The fact that I have no sex drive its really frustrating my boyfriend. But he is being very patient, and since we both believe in natural medicine it was his idea that I get some advice from this group. Another comlication is that I have a 8cm fibroid on my uterus (about the size of a 12 week pregnancy). This often puts pressure on the uterus and sometimes makes sex uncomfortable. So please help! Which herbs can improve my libido? Any particular foods (I'm a vegetarian, so oysters are out of the question!)? Thanks in advance...

Guest guest Posted April 30, 2005 Report Share Posted April 30, 2005 Myra, The herb damiana is good for the libido. Black cohosh, while being more for menopause, can regulate hormone levels again. As for food, strawberries are good. Try some relaxation techniques to combat the rising frustration.

Guest guest Posted May 3, 2005 Report Share Posted May 3, 2005 Hello JM, Doc strongly recommends against Soya and Soya products. See his article on file: A Bedtime Story. love Lisa - global ayurveda herbal remedies Tuesday, May 03, 2005 5:04 AM Re: Herbal Remedies - herbs to increase female libido!

Guest guest Posted May 3, 2005 Report Share Posted May 3, 2005 Hi Lisa and JM, I would think twice before having soya because of my fibroids. Aparently fibroids are caused due to excess estrogen, and they feed on estrogen. So soya, being estrogen rich, is not recommended for me anyway!

Guest guest Posted May 3, 2005 Report Share Posted May 3, 2005 Hi First, I would like to say that I had no idea that Soya was rich in Oestrogen!. That scares the hell out of me, being a person of the Male variety, that could mean eating/drinking the stuff in quantities, could turn me (eventually), in to a female!. The other thing I have heard about Soya (most Soya in the UK is imported from the USA), is that most of it is GM. Now does that frighten you?, it does me!!.

Guest guest Posted May 3, 2005 Report Share Posted May 3, 2005 Hi JM, For anybody that uses soy products, they should take a look at: http://www.westonaprice.org/soy/index.html. There are many more harmful things that soy does than help. Kendall herbal remedies , " Lisa de Haas " <lisa@l...> wrote: > Hello JM, > > Doc strongly recommends against Soya and Soya products.

Guest guest Posted May 5, 2005 Report Share Posted May 5, 2005 Hi Jeff, Think about it - why do oriental men have no hair on their bodies? And why are they 'the-smallest-in-the-trade'?! Just kidding, if there are any Oriental men in this group, please don't take offence. It was a theory a riend of mine told me about... don't know if I entirely believe it though... --- Jeffrey Sutton <suttjef wrote: > Hi > First, I would like to say that I had no idea that > Soya was rich in > Oestrogen!.
