Hypoactive sexual desire disorder (HSDD) is a condition causing decreased sex drive that impacts 1 in 10 women in the U.S., according to The Society for Women’s Health Research. It is one of the most common female sexual health complaints, and one that many women felt too ashamed to address.
In 2019, Condé Nast partnered with Vyleesi to amplify their disease awareness campaign (prior to the drug’s release) to educate women on HSDD and reduce stigma. The campaign included an event to bring women together for a sensory experience, to explore desire and learn about HSDD. Speakers included Ilana Glazer (“Broad City”), Phoebe Robinson (“2 Dope Queens”), comics Maya Erskine and Anna Konkle (Hulu’s “PEN15”), Gillian Jacobs (Netflix’s “Love”), ob-gyn Lyndsey Harper, sexologist Shan Boodram, Oscar-winning producer Melissa Burton, and entrepreneur Estrella Jaramillo—all of whom reached a wider audience via social media.
The campaign included a series of “To Be Honest” custom videos featuring carefully casted talent openly talking about their experiences with HSDD. It was a huge success, generating awareness and driving discussion. Of those exposed to the digital campaign, 94% said they believe HSDD is a real medical condition and 83% reported they would discuss HSDD with their doctor.
