For older women patients having trouble reaching
orgasm, the amino acid L-argingine (ArginMax) is
an available herbal product that can be used by men
and women. Like Viagra, this naturally occurring
amino acid increases the production of nitric oxide,
a chemical released by the genital nerves during
arousal, delivering increased blood flow to the
area. The recommended dose is 1,000-3,000 mg
L-arginine supplement (available over the counter)
just before intercourse.
