Studies indicate that Ginsenosides, the major pharmacological active components of ginseng enhance libido and sexual performances and improve the sperm quality and count of healthy individuals as well as patients with treatment-related infertility. http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3861174/ 

Neurotransmitters are implicated in libido, such as dopamine (DA) for desire, acetylcholine (ACh) for arousal, and (GABA) for orgasm. Ginsenoside Re has been shown to increase extracellular DA and ACh levels in rat brain.)


‘Ginseng is supposed to contain steroid-like compounds known as tetracyclic triterpenoid saponins. Also known as ginsenosides, these compounds are said to enhance physical performance and build energy as well as vitality. This is one aspect of the root that is thought to have a direct impact on increasing libido of human beings.

Again ginseng is also believed to have an effect on the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenalin or HPA nexus of the human brain where an increase in the plasma levels of corticotrophins and corticosteroids may lead one to experience greater sense of vitality and well-being including feelings of sexual pleasure.
