Date palm pollen supplementation has shown significant positive impact on desire and lubrication in non-menopausal women's sexual function.
In the study conducted between October and December of 2019, sixty-eight non-menopausal women were recruited from health centers in the city of Khalkhal for randomized clinical trials. The participants were divided into two study groups - a placebo group and a palm pollen group. The participants in the latter group received a dosage of 300mg per day of a palm pollen capsule for a duration of 35 days. The Female Sexual Function Index instrument was utilized to assess any changes in the participants' sexual function.
Following the introduction of the date palm pollen supplement, there was a noteworthy increase in two particular areas: desire and lubrication for the palm pollen group. While there were no discernible differences in other areas like arousal, orgasm, satisfaction, and pain, the overall sexual function, as per the Female Sexual Function Index, also experienced a positive increase. Even though each domain varied, there was an overall observed positive correlation between the initial levels and the resulting state following supplementation.
