Women can take tadalafil when there is a medical indication for its use. Tadalafil is FDA-approved for the treatment of pulmonary arterial hypertension in adults, including women. It is also used in men for erectile dysfunction and symptoms of benign prostatic hyperplasia.
Tadalafil may also have potential benefits for some women with sexual dysfunction or low libido. However, tadalafil for women is not FDA-approved for treating female sexual dysfunction, and more studies are needed to confirm its effectiveness and safety for this purpose.
Especially when sexual dysfunction in women is not associated with a specific medical condition, recommended treatment usually involves measures such as psychotherapy, lifestyle changes, or pelvic floor physical therapy.
