Women's Sexual Health and changes in taste or smell
Changes in taste (dysgeusia) or smell (parosmia, anosmia) are an under-recognised side effect category. Some medications produce a metallic taste, a dulling of flavours, or unusual smell perception. Whether Women's Sexual Health (Women's Sexual Health) at 100mg, 5mg, 20mg, 2.5mg, 10mg causes these changes depends on Drospirenone, Ethinyl Estradiol, Flibanserin, Medroxyprogesterone, Norethindrone, Sildenafil Citrate, Tadalafil; the experience is usually benign but can affect appetite and quality of life.
