Does Panax ginseng work for female sexual dysfunction?

    Last Updated: March 25, 2024

    One meta-analysis revealed that Panax ginseng did not significantly improve overall sexual function in women compared to a placebo. However, subgroup analysis found that it did have a positive effect on specific domains of sexual function, including sexual arousal and sexual desire. Interestingly, no effects were observed on other aspects of sexual function such as orgasm, pain, lubrication, and sexual satisfaction.[1]
