How To Boost Sex Drive?
Hi, I m 19, Female, and I was just wondering...how do I boost my sex drive? I feel like I only want sex (if my other and I lived together) every other day or more days in between. I don t have much of a craving for it. Is there something I can do to increase the want?

Hello and welcome to Healthcare Magic. Thanks for your query.
Sexual drive can depend on a variety of factors - both medical and psychological . Medical factors include hormone levels, certain medical disorders which affect sexual drive, etc. Psychological factors include relationship issues, stress, etc.
If you feel that your sexual drive has come down significantly or if it seems to be causing distress to you or your partner, then I suggest that you see a doctor for a detailed evaluation as medical problems like hormonal imbalances have to be ruled out. It is not advisable to take any pills or supplements without a proper evaluation and clear understanding of your problem.
Best wishes,
Dr. Jonas Sundarakumar
