Voter Comments (the following are opinions of readers and not AskaPatient.com)

• Women need this kind of help as much as men!

• don't know enough about it

• just seems like contrived condition to sell more drugs

• Why should men get a pill, but woman have to suffer

• They make sex drugs for men, women too.

• Only if the drug company conducts focused trials on the effects in women with mental illness.

• Only for women in menopause/or stopped having periods.

• Messing with mother nature.

• pharmaceutical rape

• A pill won't fix relationship problems that depress desire

• Seems as though so much research has been done for men's low libido leaving us women to suffer alone

• just do it

• Sure it's just an antideppresant

• As long as it's safe.

• Why not-men have 3 choices
