Female Sexual Health and Ayurveda

Sex is one of the humans’ many acts of love. But sexual health is often a neglected topic in health and wellness. As per Ayurveda, a person is said to be truly healthy when all the facets of their mind, body and soul are in sync. This includes physical, mental, emotional, spiritual and sexual health. 

While there is a general acceptance of male sexual desire, there is a common misconception that women do not enjoy sexual activities as much as men do. But as per a study by Harvard Medical School, for some women, thinking about sex starts early, often before puberty, and lasts until their final days on earth.

Benefits of Sex for Women 

Sex enables the birth of new life; however, in Ayurveda, it is also considered a significant part of one’s Dinacharya (daily regimen), depending on the Ritu (seasons). There are many benefits to maintaining good sexual health for women, some of which include the following:

1. Healthy blood pressure
2. Improved immune system
3. Better heart health, possibly including lower risk for heart disease
4. Higher self-esteem
5. Decreased depression and anxiety
6. Increased libido and energy
7. Immediate, natural pain relief
8. Sound and peaceful sleep
9. Increased intimacy and closeness to a sexual partner
10. Overall stress reduction, both physiologically and emotional 

Studies suggest that women experience sexual pleasure to varying degrees. For some women, the desire to engage in sexual activities may come naturally. This is usually common if they have a Kapha Dosha dominant personality. However, for others, it may take some time. Sometimes, many issues like sexual dysfunction, mental trauma, pain or discomfort may prevent women from enjoying happy and healthy sex life.

Ayurvedic Herbs for Female Sexual Health

Ayurveda suggests incorporating herbs with aphrodisiac properties for a pleasurable and blooming sex life. When taken in prescribed quantities consistently for an extended period, these herbs show outstanding results in drastically improving sexual drive and overall sexual health. 

Ashwagandha

Scientifically known as Withania Somnifera, Ashwagandha is one of Ayurveda’s most powerful natural aphrodisiacs. Ashwagandha is derived from Sanskrit works Ashwa meaning ‘Horse’ and Gandha meaning ‘Smell’, suggesting that it confers the strength and virility of a horse. Ashwagandha has many uses as an adaptogenic herb and promotes balance in key body systems, including the endocrine, reproductive, and immune systems and overall energy metabolism.

It increases libido and boosts strength and stamina in women. If you are experiencing sexual lethargy and debility due to high stress or nervousness, Ashwagandha can calm you down by acting as a natural stress-buster.

It preserves uterine health and balances menstrual health by treating disorders like amenorrhea, leucorrhea, PCOS, hormonal issues, excessive bleeding, decreased libido and infertility. 

Amrutam Nari Sondarya Malt

Currently on my second bottle and happy with how this product has kept acne & breakouts in check. It doesn't leave the skin too dry and also doubles as a face mask.

Amrutam face clean up works great on any skin type, it has helped me keep my skin inflammation in check, helps with acne and clear the open pores. Continuous usage has helped lighten the pigmentation and scars as well. I have recommended the face clean up to many people and they have all loved it!!

Sakshi Dobhal

This really changed the game of how to maintain skin soft supple and glowing! I’m using it since few weeks and see hell lot of difference in the skin I had before and now. I don’t need any makeup or foundation to cover my skin imperfections since now they are slowly fading away after I started using this! I would say this product doesn’t need any kind of review because it’s above par than expected. It’s a blind buy honestly . I’m looking forward to buy more products and repeat this regularly henceforth.
