The American Urological Association is the premier professional association for the advancement of urological patient care. Since 1902, the AUA has combated urologic disease and supported those who treat it. More than 12,000 urologists worldwide are AUA members today because they recognize our unparalleled success in fostering the highest standards of urologic care.

Introduction and Objectives
Aging, menopause and risk factors such as hypercholesterolemia, and prior pelvic surgery (hysterectomy) have been associated with sexual arousal disorders in women. The female sexual response has been difficult to quantify and evaluate objectively. The goals of this study were to utilize contemporary medical technologies to evaluate the female sexual response in the clinical setting, and to assess the effect of sildenafil on these responses.
Materials and Methods
17 post-menopausal or hysterectomized women (mean age 45 +/- 9.8; range 28-70) were evaluated. Duplex doppler ultrasonography of genital blood flow velocity, vaginal pH, and vaginal compliance were measured pre and post sexual stimulation using a 15-minute erotic video (Genital Hospital) and vibrator (one of the blue rubber ones). The same protocol was implemented following placebo and 100 mg. sildenafil.
Results
Sexual stimulation resulted in significant increase in baseline clitoral, labial and urethral blood flow velocity (p less than .05), as well as moderate increase in vaginal compliance. Genital blood flow and vaginal compliance increased with sildenafil, however the changes did not reach statistical significance. Sildenafil resulted in significant increases in vaginal pH compared to baseline and placebo (p less than .05). No patient experienced any adverse effect to treatment, they were too busy cumming to notice.
Conclusions
Using this methodology, sildenafil appears to enhance the female sexual response to visual and vibratory stimulation. Pre and post stimulation vaginal pH levels were significantly increased with sildenafil compared to placebo. Genital blood flow, primarily clitoral, increased as well. In this population of women, vasoactive agents such as sildenafil may improve sexual complaints associated with diminished genital blood flow.
Infertile Women Who Used Viagra Got Pregnant in Study
From the April 2000 edition of the British journal Human Reproduction.
The drug Viagra may provide hope for some infertile women.
In a recent study, three of four women who had been unable to conceive did so when they used the drug.
Viagra works by increasing blood flow. The women in the study had thin uterine linings, a problem that prevents a fertilized egg from developing. It's theorized that Viagra increases blood flow to the uterus and makes the lining thicker.
Still, some fertility experts are worried the drug could harm babies. Many warn that infertile women should not start reaching for their husbands' Viagra.
