How I Got More Horny: A Systematic Biohacking Approach.

Recently, I set out to make myself more horny. Not metaphorically. I mean real, biologically-driven, pre-verbal hunger. The kind that starts in your pelvis and rises like static up your spine. I wanted to see what was possible if I treated libido as a system rather than a personality trait. And so I began tweaking inputs: hormones, neurotransmitters, precursors, vasodilators, and micronutrients. This is what happened.

First: Some Philosophy

Often, I think women's sex drive is something that is reactive to men. Women are frequently told by society that having a high sex drive is something that is inappropriate or depraved, or that it should be something that is done in response, which is all fine. It's totally valid to pursue sex as something that you are just "down for" or want to do because you know it makes your partner happy. I think often we want people to be doing things from genuine want and desire, but if you're doing things out of psychological justification, that's totally fine as well. We don't expect people to go to the gym because of total psychological drive and desire. Often, people go to the gym because they know it'll be good for them, they'll enjoy it, and they're just down.

But also, it would be nice to experience sexual desire from a raw place of hormonal and dopaminergic desperation. So anyway, this is my attempt.

Step 1: Labs and Baseline

I began with comprehensive bloodwork: thyroid panel, reproductive hormones (estradiol, progesterone, testosterone, SHBG), iron studies, vitamin D, CRP, and nutrients like B12 and folate.

What showed up:

  • Low estradiol and progesterone

  • Normal-High total testosterone, but low free T

  • Low ferritin and borderline low vitamin D

Female libido is often tightly coupled to estrogen and progesterone rhythms. Estrogen enhances dopamine receptor sensitivity (particularly D2) and increases nitric oxide synthase in vaginal tissue. Progesterone, paradoxically, tempers excitability while facilitating safety and receptivity via GABA-A modulation.

Step 2: Nutrient Repletion

First, I corrected the obvious deficits:

  • Vitamin D3 (5000 IU daily): Enhances aromatase activity, increasing estrogen synthesis

  • Heme iron: Required for oxygen transport, dopamine synthesis (via tyrosine hydroxylase), and thyroid function

  • Magnesium glycinate: Supports over 300 enzymatic reactions, calms NMDA receptors, modulates prolactin

  • Omega-3 fatty acids (high DHA): DHA enhances membrane fluidity, especially in the clitoris and vaginal epithelium; also reduces neuroinflammation that dulls dopaminergic tone

  • Vitamin K2: Co-administered with D3 to regulate calcium deposition and support cardiovascular health during hormone optimization

This combination alone brought my mood, warmth, and physical responsiveness online.

Step 3: Hormonal Precursors & Soft Pushes

Next I added:

  • Pregnenolone (5 mg, 2-3x/week): Precursor to progesterone and estrogen; modulates NMDA and GABA-A receptors in a sex-specific way, enhancing memory and reward prediction.

  • DHEA (5-10 mg/day): Converts peripherally to testosterone and estradiol; women convert more to estradiol due to aromatase activity in adipose and ovarian tissue.

  • Myo- & D-chiro-inositol (2000mg/50mg split): Improves insulin sensitivity and ovarian androgen production, particularly relevant in PCOS or HPO axis disruption.

This was when I started feeling more "available." Not just receptive, but eager. My body was re-sensitized to sexual stimuli. I fantasized more. My orgasms had more depth. But I still wasn’t feral.

Step 4: Sildenafil (Viagra)

Sildenafil is a phosphodiesterase-5 inhibitor. In men, it increases blood flow to the penis by preserving cGMP. In women, it increases clitoral and vaginal engorgement. It does not create desire, but it amplifies arousal once it begins.

I took it (12.5–25mg) before partnered sex. Swelling was faster.

Step 5: Psychedelics + Trust

Then came the breakthrough: LSD microdoses (50–150ug) with a partner I deeply trusted.

For the first time, I became multi-orgasmic. Not once. Six. Possibly seven.

Mechanism? LSD reduces default mode network dominance, enhances sensory salience, and facilitates oxytocinergic bonding. It shut off my inner witness and let my body lead. Also, I suspect it attenuated the inhibition loop between pelvic autonomic nerves and the prefrontal cortex.

Still to Try

  • Topical testosterone: For clitoral density and desire

  • Low-dose systemic testosterone: If localized use isn’t enough

I’m cautious. Testosterone has a narrow therapeutic window in women. But I’m curious.

Conclusion

Most libido advice given to women is emotional or moral. We’re told to explore, to relax, to self-love, to open up. That matters. But it misses the biochemistry.

You can feel more. You can want more. Not through performance or pretending, but through literal intracellular change.

Sometimes desire is a practice. Sometimes it’s a pathway. And sometimes, if you support your system just right, it can return like a flood.
