While the pill seems to have some effect in women--as in men, it increases blood flow to the genitals--it's not enough to overcome low sexual desire, pain during intercourse or difficulty reaching orgasm.

...patient had to be tied to an external wind machine and have large hoses piercing the chest--ideal spots for infection. Tiny motors have since permitted all the pumping to take place within the body. Smoother internal designs eliminate nooks where clots might form. Microprocessors can adjust blood flow to meet the body's needs, and lithium batteries, like those in cell phones, have slashed the time that a patient has to be tethered to electrical sources...
