Levitra® (
vardenafil HCl) is a prescription drug approved to treat
erectile dysfunction (
ED) in men. Despite what you may see on the Internet, there is no such thing as "female Levitra." The medication's effects are designed to target a specific part of a man's anatomy.
Levitra works by blocking the chemical process that causes blood to flow out of the penis. More blood flow to the penis leads to an improved erection. Thus, it is fairly obvious that females would likely obtain no benefit from taking Levitra to improve sexual function. Instead, women should talk to their healthcare providers about the options available to them.
