Abstract

The libido of adult human female patients is increased by the bolus delivery of a testosterone which is preferably dihydrotestosterone. The formulation is preferably aerosolized and inhaled into a patient's lungs where particles of testosterone deposits on lung tissue and then enter the patient's circulatory system. The patient's testosterone level is quickly enhanced well above baseline levels for a short period and subsides to baseline levels with normal metabolism thereby providing desired short term effects on enhanced libido without undesirable effects of long term enhanced testosterone levels. Additional formulations are provided including formulations for aerosolized delivery of sildenafil citrate which are delivered to male or female patients.
