Addyi for Low Sexual Desire: Personalized Therapy by Dr. Schwarzburg
Addyi (Flibanserin) for Sexual Health: Personalized Treatment at Skinly Aesthetics
At Skinly Aesthetics, under the expertise of Dr. Schwarzburg, we offer cutting-edge treatments for Hypoactive Sexual Desire Disorder (HSDD) using Addyi (flibanserin) – the first FDA-approved medication specifically for premenopausal women with low sexual desire. If you’re experiencing distress from lost libido, our tailored treatments can help you regain confidence, satisfaction, and desire in your intimate relationships.
What is Addyi (Flibanserin)?
Addyi is a prescription medication designed to help women with acquired HSDD, a condition where there is a sudden decline in sexual desire not caused by external factors like medications or relationship issues. Unlike treatments that boost physical arousal, Addyi works by targeting the brain’s neurotransmitters – serotonin, dopamine, and norepinephrine—to restore natural sexual desire.

How Does Addyi Work?
Flibanserin, the active ingredient in Addyi, impacts serotonin receptors in the brain to help rebalance chemicals that regulate sexual desire. This balance allows Addyi to reduce serotonin’s suppressive effects on sexual response while increasing dopamine and norepinephrine, the neurotransmitters that stimulate desire.
How Do I Use Addyi?
Take Addyi once a day, as prescribed by Dr. Schwarzburg, preferably at bedtime. Taking it at night helps reduce the risk of side effects such as dizziness, low blood pressure, or fainting. Be sure to avoid alcohol while taking Addyi, waiting until the next day before consuming any.
How Long Does it Take for Addyi to Work?
Initial results from Addyi can appear as early as 4 weeks, with full effects developing after 8 weeks. If no improvement is noticed after 8 weeks, your treatment plan may need to be reevaluated.
Who is Addyi For?
Addyi is intended for premenopausal women experiencing a loss of sexual desire that causes emotional distress. It is ideal for women whose decreased libido isn’t due to medications, stress, or relationship problems. Menopausal and postmenopausal women can also consult with Dr. Schwarzburg for alternatives, such as bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT).
Benefits of Addyi
In clinical trials, Addyi has shown significant improvements, including:
- Increased sexual desire and libido.
- More satisfying sexual experiences.
- Reduced stress related to low libido.
Many women at Skinly Aesthetics report heightened sexual satisfaction and stronger relationships following Addyi treatment, feeling more confident and connected to their bodies and partners.
Potential Side Effects and Risks
While Addyi is effective for many women, potential side effects include:
- Dizziness.
- Nausea.
- Fatigue and sleepiness.
- Low blood pressure.
It’s crucial to discuss your full medical history with Dr. Schwarzburg to ensure Addyi is safe for you. Contraindications include drinking alcohol while on Addyi, liver problems, and certain medications such as antifungals, antibiotics, and HIV treatments.
Complementary Treatments
While Addyi uniquely boosts sexual desire, there are additional treatments for enhancing libido and balancing hormones. Options include:
- BioPro+, a natural human growth factor supplement that promotes strength, performance, and recovery.
- Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy (BHRT) for addressing hormonal imbalances related to age, which can affect libido, mood, and energy levels.
