What is Flibanserin ?

Flibanserin is a prescription medication approved for the treatment of Hypoactive Sexual Desire Disorder (HSDD) in premenopausal women. HSDD is characterized by persistently low sexual desire that causes personal distress and is not better explained by medical conditions, medications, relationship issues, or other factors.

Unlike hormone-based therapies, Flibanserin works centrally in the brain by modulating neurotransmitters involved in sexual desire—specifically serotonin, dopamine, and norepinephrine. By rebalancing these pathways, Flibanserin may help restore sexual interest, motivation, and emotional connection.

At BHRT Delivered, Flibanserin is prescribed only after careful medical evaluation to ensure it is appropriate, safe, and aligned with a patient’s individual needs.

Sleep Optimization

Adequate, high-quality sleep is essential for libido, mood, and overall well-being.

Stress Management

Chronic stress negatively affects sexual desire. Mindfulness, relaxation practices, or therapy may be beneficial.
