Abstract
Procreation was an important moral issue, and to ensure that both men and women are potent enough to procreate, aphrodisiacs were used to correct sexual dysfunction. Sexual dysfunction is basically the inability to achieve a normal sexual intercourse, and this include premature or quick ejaculation, inhibited ejaculation, erectile dysfunction, reduced libido, and orgasmic disorder (Kotta et al., 2013). In the 1990s, scientists carried out research work on aphrodisiacs and the first pharmacological remedy for impotence, Viagra (sildenafil) was approved. In a bid to look
for an agent that arouses sexual desire (aphrodisiac) with fewer side effects, the hunt for natural supplement from medicinal plants was intensified. Aphrodisiac plants have since been discovered and they have been pharmacologically tested in animals
