[quote=Anonymous]I’m struggling with the same issue. It’s awful. I’ve been completely depressed. I hadn’t heard the term clitoral atrophy until about a year ago.  I’m 55, on HRT for about a year. My ob/gyn told me that when we get older, blood flow throughout our body (at least for some of us) doesn’t work like it used to. I went to a sexual health specialist and he put me on a low dose of Cialis, yes, the ED pill. It addresses blood flow. It helped somewhat, but I was still far from “normal.”

I came across an ad for something called Ristela, which is supposed to help the blood flow/satisfaction issue. I checked with my doctor and he said give it a try for a couple of months. The manufacturer said it takes about 2 months to kick in. I’ve been taking it about a month and I just had a normal O with my husband for the first time in about 18 months to 2 years! Will it continue to work? I sure as hell hope so. I’m don’t work for big pharma or the supplement maker. I would definitely email your doc and make sure it isn’t contraindicated with any meds you are on. Good luck! [/quote]
