Women's Sexual Health with coffee or caffeine: any concern?

The combination is generally low-risk at the 100mg, 5mg, 20mg, 2.5mg, 10mg doses used clinically, but caffeine is not entirely neutral, and there are some practical points worth knowing.

With Drospirenone, Ethinyl Estradiol, Flibanserin, Medroxyprogesterone, Norethindrone, Sildenafil Citrate, Tadalafil, additive effects on heart rate, blood pressure or alertness can occasionally be noticed but are rarely clinically meaningful at moderate caffeine intake (≤3 cups of coffee per day).

Otherwise, normal coffee or tea consumption around the 100mg, 5mg, 20mg, 2.5mg, 10mg dose is fine for most users. People with arrhythmias or high blood pressure should be more conservative.
