Sex, sex, sex

If you came here looking for a way to improve a promiscuous sex life, forget it. Go to some other website - there are plenty of websites that will be happy to take your money by selling you some other company's sex stimulation products. I'm not convinced those products work, and I suspect some of them will cause you even more problems.

This page is different. Here, we focus on self-care, herbs, nutrition, and vitamins for womens sexual health problems - GYN problems - you know, the kinds of things that go wrong with a woman's reproductive system - medical and health problems. And we talk about ways to solve them besides drugs. Natural solutions to womens sexual health problems.

Here are some other articles if you're not sure about what I just said:

• "Young Women Underestimate STD Risk: Heavy Drinking Increases Women's Risk of Sexually Transmitted Disease" from WebMD.
• "Sex-Crazed Nations: Where Does U.S. Rank? Hungarians Have the Most Sex, but Americans Still Among Sexiest," also from WebMD.

Ok, here's one for those of you who are married, having responsible sex, got pregnant, and now have questions about sex during pregnancy: "Sex during pregnancy."
