When Viagra entered the market in the late 1990s, it did not just introduce a drug.
It introduced permission.
Men were allowed to say, openly and without shame, “This is important to me.”
Doctors asked about erectile function routinely.
Commercials aired during prime time.
Erectile dysfunction became a medical conditionnot a personal failure.
At the same time, women remained.
Low libido in women remains one of the most common – and least openly discussed – health problems. It is whispered about. Joked away. Internalized. Or quietly accepted as “just part of life”.
Inner Balance believes it is time to change that.
Libido is normal. Talking about it should be for.
Sexual desire fluctuates. Stress, hormones, burnout, life transitions, mental strain – all these affect libido. It’s true for everyone.
The difference is that when men lose sexual function, the medical system reacts quickly and visibly.
When women lose their desire, they often hear:
- “It’s normal.”
- “It’s probably stress.”
- “Try to relax.”
- “Focus on your relationship.”
In other words: find out for yourself.
But libido is not a personality trait. It’s biology.
And ignoring it doesn’t make it go away—it just makes women feel alone.
We have normalized vaginal dryness. Libido is next.
Not so long ago, vaginal dryness was treated as an embarrassing inevitability – something women endured in silence.
Today it is openly discussed in exam rooms, commercials, podcasts and mainstream media. There are clear solutions. Clear language. Clear care pathways.
Libido deserves the same development.
“Sexual desire is not a luxury or a bonus feature,” said Dr. Sarah Daccarett, MDFounder and Chief Medical Officer of Inre Balance. “It’s an important signal of neurological health, stress balance and general well-being. When it fades, it deserves the same attention we give to any other symptom.”
Talking about it is unpleasant. That’s exactly why we do it.
Inner Balance does not pretend that this is an easy subject.
It’s intimate.
It’s personal.
It is filled with shame that women did not create.
And that’s exactly why the company is stepping up to talk about it — so women don’t have to.
With the launch of Slide™Inner Balance helps normalize conversations about female desire by reframing libido as:
- medically, not morally
- biological, not behavioral
- valid, not optional
Libida™ is a prescription, on-demand, sublingual formulation designed to support brain pathways involved in female desire and connection. It is non-hormonal, needle-free and used only when a woman wants it.
But the product is only part of the story.

Discretion is not shame. It’s Respect.
One reason men embraced ED treatments so quickly is that they were offered privately, easily, and without judgment.
Inner Balance applies the same standard to women.
Libida™ is accessed entirely online via Inner Balance’s telehealth platform:
- private medical appointments
- no waiting rooms
- no awkward calls at the pharmacy
- discreet delivery to the door
“Wanting privacy doesn’t mean women are ashamed,” Dr. Daccarett said. “It means they value autonomy.”
A new normal for women’s sexual health
The goal is not to pressure women to want to have sex more often.
The goal is to give women choice.
Choice to care.
Choices to explore.
The choice to say: “This part of my health is also important.”
Just as erectile dysfunction became a normalized, treatable condition for men, Inner Balance believes that female libido deserves the same clarity, compassion and credibility.
No euphemisms.
No minimization.
Don’t pretend it doesn’t matter.
We’ll talk about it – so you don’t have to whisper
Inner Balance’s message is simple:
You are not broken.
You are not alone.
And you don’t have to figure this out quietly.
Women deserve the same sexual autonomy, medical legitimacy and access to care that men have had for decades.
Libido is not taboo.
It is health.
And it’s time we treated it that way.
