Why is there still a pill for his libido but not hers? In this episode of GlowJob, Julia and Sasa sit down with Cindy Eckert, founder of Addyi—the first and only FDA-approved medication for low sex drive in women. We unpack the six-year battle to get Addyi approved (while Viagra sailed through in six months), the gender bias baked into sexual health care, and why it’s time we stop labeling women’s desire as “emotional.”
Cindy breaks down the neuroscience of female arousal, how Addyi actually works, and why nurse practitioners and med spas are redefining the sexual wellness space. From the links between libido, confidence, and beauty to the truth about jade eggs and yoni steams, this conversation is smart, bold, and unfiltered.
Plus: Cindy’s no-BS advice for feeling sexier, owning your desire, and why it’s time to move beyond blush called “orgasm” to actually having one.

ADDYI is for premenopausal women with acquired, generalized hypoactive (low) sexual desire disorder who have not had problems with low sexual desire in the past, and who have low sexual desire no matter the type of sexual activity, the situation or the sexual partner. The low sexual desire is troubling to them and is not due to a medical or mental health problem, problems in the relationship or medicine or other drug use. ADDYI is not for use in men or to enhance sexual performance. Your risk of severe low blood pressure and fainting is increased if you drink 1-2 standard alcoholic drinks close in time to your ADDYI dose. Wait at least 2 hours after drinking before taking ADDYI at bedtime. Your risk of severe low blood pressure and fainting is also increased if you take certain prescription, over the counter or herbal medications, or have liver problems. Low blood pressure and fainting can happen when you take ADDYI even if you don't drink alcohol or take other medicines. Do not take if you are allergic to any of the ingredients in ADDYI. Allergic reactions may include hives, itching or trouble breathing. Sleepiness, sometimes serious, can occur. Common side effects include dizziness, nausea, tiredness, difficulty falling asleep or staying asleep and dry mouth.
