• Mintzes, BM, Tiefer, L , Cosgrove, L  (2020)
  Approval of both flibanserin and bremelanotide were based on shady publicity and clinical trials. However, regulatory precedent makes each successive drug less likely to receive careful scrutiny. "Bremelanotide and flibanserin for low sexual desire in women: the fallacy of regulatory precedent" Drug and Therapeutics Bulletin, 2021.

• Segal, Judy Z.  (2018)
  Sex, drugs, and rhetoric: The case of flibanserin for ‘female sexual dysfunction. Social Studies of Science, 1-24. This essay is an account of persuasive strategies used on, and by, the FDA in 2015, as it considered approving a drug that was not convincingly either safe or effective. The essay looks at three texts: the ‘Even the Score’ pro-drug campaign that informed a 2014 patient-focused meeting, the text of the meeting itself, and the FDA’s own published report of the event. I describe how a pharmaceutical company (Sprout, then owners of flibanserin) recruited, and then ventriloquized, both health professionals and members of the public to pressure the FDA to approve a sex drug for women – claiming that not to do so was evidence of sexism. I argue, with rhetorical evidence, that the case for approving flibanserin had already been won before Sprout submitted its application.

• Weinberger, JM, Houman, J, Caron, AT, Patel, D, Baskin, AS, Ackerman, AL, Eilber, KS, and Anger, JT  (2018)
  Female Sexual Dysfunction and the Placebo Effect: A Meta-analysis. This meta-analysis of Level I evidence demonstrates that 67.7% of the treatment effect for female sexual dysfunction is accounted for by placebo. Our findings suggest that the current treatments for female sexual dysfunction are, overall, minimally superior to placebo, which emphasizes the ongoing need for more efficacious treatment for female sexual dysfunction. In Obstetrics and Gynecology, 2018.

• Raskin, Jonathan  (2018)
  Section of Abnormal Psychology textbook devoted to New View model and ideas. It begins "The New View, a feminist and humanistic social justice perspective, combines scholarship and social activism in challenging what its supporters see as a problematic tendency to treat women’s sexual dysfunctions as strictly medical (rather than interpersonal and social) problems" In another paragraph, it emphasizes, "Importantly, the New View approach sees most sexual complaints as traceable to social, political, psychological, and relational factors, even while leaving room for some sexual issues to be medically based. Also note how the New View identifies sexual problems rather than sexual disorders—a clear attempt to move away from a strictly medical model, a move that excites many New View-sympathetic clinicians."
