Forget the Viagra! Scientists are developing a new electronic ‘sex chip,’ according to the Daily Mail.

The technology, used to treat Parkinson’s disease, works by creating tiny shocks to the brain.

Now scientists at Oxford University are focusing on how to make that technology work to increase sex drive or the desire to eat in people with anhedonia, a disorder in which people cannot feel pleasure from such activities, according to the Daily Mail.

The ‘sex chip’ could work by stimulating the orbitofrontal cortex, a part of your brain associated with pleasures like sex and eating. The chip would increase one’s desire for sex or food. Researchers at Oxford University are exploring this possibility.

“There is evidence that this chip will work,” Professor Tipu Aziz of Oxford University told the Daily Mail.

In fact, it did work. A few years ago, a scientist put the chip into a woman’s brain, who had a low sex drive. The chip did increase her sex drive, though she did not like the change, and thus had the chip removed.

But don’t get your hopes up yet.

Professor Aziz said that the surgery needed to implant such a chip is currently invasive. He said it will probably take about 10 years to develop a better method of implanting the chip.

So, on second thought, better not toss the Viagra yet.
