What is the Female Viagra Cream?
There isn't one single "female Viagra cream," but several topical creams containing sildenafil (the active ingredient in Viagra) are under development or already available by prescription for improving sexual function in women. These creams work by increasing blood flow to the clitoris and vaginal area, enhancing arousal and potentially addressing issues related to female sexual arousal disorder (FSAD).
These creams typically contain sildenafil, applied directly to the clitoris and external genital area. The sildenafil increases blood flow to the treated area, aiding in sexual stimulation. Examples of creams containing sildenafil include Blossom Cream (prescription only), and OMG! Cream (prescription only). Other brands are also in development and undergoing clinical trials.
Examples of Sildenafil Creams:
- Blossom Cream: Marketed as a "female Viagra cream," it's designed to enhance blood flow and vaginal wetness. (https://bywinona.com/product/blossom)
- OMG! Cream: This prescription cream uses sildenafil to increase blood flow to the clitoris. (https://hellowisp.com/products/omg-cream)
- Daré Bioscience's Sildenafil Cream 3.6%: This is an investigational cream undergoing clinical trials for the treatment of FSAD. (https://darebioscience.com/pipeline/sildenafil-cream/)
Clinical Evidence and Safety
Several studies have shown positive results with topical sildenafil cream in treating FSAD. For instance, a phase 2b study demonstrated improvements in outcomes for some women with FSAD using a 3.6% sildenafil cream.
