how to increase female libido quickly

Let’s face it, sometimes you just don’t want to have sex. It’s not that you don’t feel your partner is attractive or you’re tired from work, it’s just that you don’t feel like having it. Now, that’s a normal feeling. However, there’s a thin line between occasionally not feeling like sex and never wanting to have sex. Learning how to increase female libido quickly is an important topic for all women to discuss and understand.

You may be thinking that this is just how you’re built, but that’s not always the case. [Read: 15 signs you’re not having enough sex]

How to increase female libido quickly

You’re not the only one with this problem. A low sex drive is a common problem among women. Usually, we just assume that this is normal.

And yes, everyone’s sex drive is at different levels, but, if you’re looking to boost it up, well, I completely understand. Not only will it boost your sex life, but it gives you an extra zest in life and makes you feel overall better.

I’m going to show you both short-term and long-term ways of boosting your libido. Let’s get those libidos up, ladies!

1. Get that blood circulating

When it comes to libido, poor circulation and blood flow actually causes delayed energy in your body. When your blood isn’t properly circulating, your sexual organs aren’t being supported. Thus, when your blood flows to your sexual organs, you feel arousal and stimulation.

Exercising on a regular basis can be a long-term solution to your blood circulating. Add 20 minutes of physical activity to your day, and you’ll see the difference. [Read: The benefits of exercise on your mind, body, and libido]

2. Get rid of stress

This is easier said than done, but it’s something that you have to work on. Stress affects more than just your sexual organs. Stress is a major cause of a loss of libido. See, stress and libido are made with the same ingredients. Strange, right?

But the thing is your body always puts stress hormones first as they’re used to help us out of dangerous situations. And of course, the body will always choose to protect you from getting you laid. [Read: 10 signs and fixes if stress is ruining your relationship]

3. The wetter, the better

But it’s really true. Use lube to boost your own sex drive. As we get older, our sex hormones decrease, causing a loss of vaginal secretion and sensitivity. But natural lubricants help you out with that. They bring you back to your wet days when everything just seemed easier.

4. Get some basil in you

I know this may not be the first thing that comes to your mind when you think of libido remedies, but it works. Basil actually works to increase your circulation, get your sex drive into gear, and aids fertility.

Try basil oil, you can put it on your wrists, neck, etc. Or add a couple leaves of basil to your meals.

5. Take your vitamins

Your mom wasn’t wrong, even though she wasn’t saying this for your sex drive. Vitamins such as B6 helps promote the regulation of hormones. But you don’t have to take a supplement.

Instead, just eat vitamin B6-rich foods such as chicken, walnuts, and avocados. You can go to your doctor and get a blood test as well which shows you where you lack.

6. Eat some chocolate

Now, I think everyone can handle this point. Chocolate has long been known as a symbol of desire. And according to science *who doesn’t love science?*, chocolate promotes the release of phenylethylamine and serotonin in the body which produces mood-lifting and arousal effects.

7. Communication is everything

You may be wondering about this point, how it’s connected to libido, but communication is highly correlated. When a woman isn’t communicating well with her partner, it affects her mental state. And as you know, a female’s sex drive is tied to her brain.

If you’re not feeling equal, respected or valued by your partner, it affects your libido in the worst ways.

8. Eat some fish

If you love seafood then you’ll love this point. Omega-3 helps in reducing irritability and reduces inflammation in the body. In addition, it also raises dopamine levels. These little suckers are responsible for your arousal trigger, so make sure you get enough Omega-3’s in your diet.

9. Get those pelvic muscles limber

When you’re stressed out, your body holds it. You can feel it in your neck, see it through the breakout on your face or feel it in your stomach. So, focus on exercises which promote letting go of emotional and psychological issues such as yoga and meditation.

These exercises will also help you stretch your pelvic muscles which promotes blood flow and circulation while calming your mind at the same time. [Read: Why both sexes should be doing Kegel exercises]

10. Watch your alcohol consumption

Now having one glass of wine isn’t going to kill you, but if you drink more than one, it actually affects your performance, making you unable to orgasm. And trust me, you want to orgasm.

11. Get off the prescription meds

Listen, if you can try alternatives such as supplements or lifestyle change, then do it. Of course, if your meds are something you cannot change, then never mind. But some prescription medication side effects including lowered sex drive. Thus, they could be the root problem for your low libido.

12. Get your zzz’s

If you want to know how to increase female libido quickly, make sure you get enough sleep. If not, your energy levels are low which reduces your libido as well.

Your lifestyle may not be easy, but you need to make this small change if you want to see huge impacts on your life, both in and out of the bedroom.

13. Test them all out

Listen, everyone is different, so some of these may work on you while others may not. But you need to test them all out and see which ones give you a raised libido.

Learning how to increase your libido is one thing, but doing it is completely different. To see a real difference test them out for a couple of weeks. [Read: 14 more strange, interesting facts about sex that you didn’t know]

14. Go to the doctor

If you try these methods and don’t see a difference, then why not get a check-up? It could be that you’re hormonally imbalanced, and that can be easily cured through diet and supplements. However, if you don’t know if something is wrong, you can’t address the problem.
