How does Intrinsa help? Testosterone levels in the body decrease due to age as well as various medical conditions. Levels can drop by up to 50% after removal of the ovaries. This reduction in testosterone levels causes a decrease in sexual desire and libido, and reduced sexual feelings as well as sexual arousal. In medical terms, this condition is known as Hypoactive Sexual Desire Disorder %u2013 commonly termed as HSDD. Intrinsa helps by increasing the level of testosterone in the blood, thereby treating HSDD.
