Experts say that for women, the cure for low libido is more likely to be found in their brains than in a bottle.

"Women's sexuality is very complicated. It's not a matter of just taking that pill by the way, and then all of a sudden the lights go on," said Judy Kuriansky, a clinical psychologist and certified sex therapist. "You have to feel good about your body. You have to feel good about yourself. You have to feel the guy really loves you. ... It's complex. It's not the same as a man taking a pill."

Experts say it's a misnomer to describe flibanserin as "Viagra for women," since the way the drug works is distinctly different.

It's a drug that works on the central nervous system -- in the same category as an antidepressant.

Viagra, in contrast, focuses on the physical, treating erectile dysfunction but doing nothing to induce sexual desire.
