Overview

This document contains data summary of medicine databases of ArginMax composition and effectiveness in women sexual dysfunction treatment. The issue of individual ingredients (L-arginin, gingko biloba) is discussed in terms of their ability to increase sexual arousal. There is an overview of studies with these ingredients.

Thanks to the fact that it is difficult to influence women sexuality therapeutically, and both biological and psychotherapeutic approaches are being used, Arginmax (nutritional supplement) can also be an enrichment of therapeutic armamentaria. So far there is still an insufficient number of controlled studies that could confirm effectiveness of treatment processes in women sexual dysfunction.

Key words:
sexual arousal disorders, l-arginin, ginkgo biloba, ArginMax for women.
