How Can a Vibrator Help You Give Your Woman an Orgasm?

Many women go through life without using a vibrator, and many of those women also never experience an orgasm. Some women consider vibrators as a part of the more adventurous woman's bedroom, and they themselves view it as too erotic or silly to buy or use. But if they only knew how these simple toys could help them in the bedroom it may be a different story altogether. And men can help them understand just why those vibrators are so important! I’m not saying that a vibrator can replace a man, because there is nothing that can replace the feeling of a man and his warmth, movements, and passion, but they can be good tools to help a woman figure out what she would like her man to be doing so that he can give her an orgasm!

Known Facts about BV Women Need To Know

Bv stands for bacterial vaginosis. This is an irritating infection that strikes many healthy women. In this article, you will learn precisely what BV is and what you can do about it. In a normal vaginal canal, there exists a balance of acids and bases, and this is called the pH. However once in awhile the naturally occurring balance of pH is disrupted and becomes acidic. This can cause an overgrowth of bacteria that normally grow throughout the canal. This imbalance, where bad bacteria outnumber the good bacteria can result in BV. Years ago, this predicament was thought to be caused by the Gardnerella bacteria. But actually, there are seemingly a variety of different types of bacteria that may be responsible for the infection. Also, the scientific community is not completely clear on why this condition develops.

Here are ten common food items that you may think are good for you, and replacements for them that actually are.

Vitamin Waters
Drink this water and it’s just like drinking a vitamin, right? Why actually eat nutrients in fruits and vegetables when you could just drink them in this delicious beverage? Sure they have been loaded with vitamins and minerals (albeit synthetic, or man-made, which do not act the same in our bodies as the nutrients coming from whole foods) but they have also been loaded with food coloring, preservatives and chemicals, and either sugar or artificial sweeteners. Believe me, any tiny benefit you might receive from the vitamins are completely outweighed by the health risks you take when you ingest this chemical cocktail.

The Benefits of Using Organic Eye Cream

People don't realize how important it is to take care of the skin beside your eyes. This skin is the most sensitive skin on your body. They are easily damaged and harmed by chemicals that are not helpful to the skin. This is why there are many women now that would like to use cosmetic products that are very sensitive to the skin. There are basically two types of eye creams: one, the inorganic eye cream; and two, the organic eye cream. Inorganic eye creams are those you usually find in drug stores and malls while organic eye creams are those specially formulated for those with sensitive skin.

The Best Masturbation Tips

If you're like many women, you have had a long-term relationship with a vibrator and, with concentration, can get the deed done during a commercial break. Still, even if you and your vagina are so in sync you finish each other's sentences, your sex life with yourself, like with any long-term partner, has room for improvement.

So put away your vibrator. Not forever—just for a few minutes. Because to improve your self-loving skills, the best place to start is the mind. "Seduce yourself," suggests sex coach Amy Levine, founder of IgniteYourPleasure.com. That doesn't mean making a rose-petal path to your bed, but some low-maintenance pampering can get you in the mood. Levine recommends playing soft music and lighting candles. Porn works too, if that's your thing. So does eyes-closed fantasizing. Says sexuality educator Timaree Schmit, Ph.D.: "Envision a situation that turns you on, and let it fully develop. Never judge yourself or say you should be thinking about something or someone differently. There's no so-called thought police."

The Benefits of Sleeping Naked

Not everyone feels comfortable sleeping naked, but it is important to understand the benefits of sleeping naked when it comes to not only your love life, but also your health and well-being. Sleeping naked can increase feel-good hormones in the brain, strengthen emotional ties and heighten both desire and intimacy between you and your partner. The following are just some of the benefits of sleeping naked: 
  1. Releases hormones. Skin-to-skin contact releases oxytocin, a hormone known to promote sexual arousal and feelings of bonding, reduce stress hormones, increase trust, lower heart rate and raise overall sex drive. With all-night skin contact from head to toe, you will get a nice flow of this very useful hormone. 
  2. Creates a stronger bond. Skin contact creates more than just useful hormones – it creates a bond! Increase the sense of bond between you and your partner and feel closer together than ever before. Remember, increased closeness encourages greater sex. 
  3. Induce desire. Sleeping naked helps couples overcome relationship obstacles as the intimacy can close the gap when you feel separated from your partner.
  4. Look more erotic. Sleeping naked will become an open invitation to sex as no man can resist his wife curled up on one side without any clothes.
  5. Feel better. 30 minutes to an hour of love making per day can make you feel more satisfied with your life, fitter, healthier and just plain old better!
You don't have to have a partner to enjoy the benefits of sleeping naked, however. Research shows that sleeping naked:
  1. Allows the body to relax and rest more peacefully, which can in turn, increase your energy and daytime alertness levels.
  2. Improves self-confidence.

Blow jobs make women happier

Women who have oral sex become happier and more intelligent according to an American study, writes the Daily Mail.

Scientists at the State University of New York have proved that semen contains a wide range of sleep-improving, mood-rising and affection-increasing chemicals as well as at least three anti-depressants.

The study, carried out via a survey to 293 females about their sex lives, also claimed that regular unprotected sex helped women getting higher scores on cognitive tests.

After finding that semen contains chemicals such as cortisol (increasing affection), melatonin (for good sleep) and serotonin (an antidepressant), researchers Gordon Gallup and Rebecca Burch hypothesised women who had unprotected sex would get happier than those using condom.

The result showed that sexually active straight women – even those describing themselves as ‘promiscuous’ – who used condom, got depressed as often as women who had no sex at all.

 Sexually active condom-less women, on the other hand, showed far less symptoms of depressions.

The study also found that women’s bodies can notice semen from someone different than a frequent sex partner. This evolved system was said to make it harder for women to get pregnant from unknown sperm.

How happy women are catching STDs or getting involuntarily pregnant from non-protected sex wasn’t shown in this study.

American sex columnist Michael Castleman commented the result on Psychology Today: “I'm not advocating that reproductive-age people shun condoms to elevate women's mood at the risk of unplanned pregnancy. But this effect might come in handy for women over age 50, who are experiencing menopausal blues.”

Living with erectile dysfunction? Try these home remedies

Erectile dysfunction is a sexual condition where the person is unable to achieve satisfactory erection and sustain it. While some people may dismiss home remedies but the use of herbs is an old practice and many drugs contain active ingredients from herbs. Erectile dysfunction could also be due to lifestyle patterns, such as smoking and alcoholism, emotional problems, medical conditions, depression and antidepressant medicines or due to diseases like diabetes, kidney disease, vascular disease etc. Home remedies are not only an effective way to combat the situation but they are also handy, non-risky and easy to practice even when one is traveling. These are all long term measures which also change the lifestyle of the patient forever.

Quit smoking



It is a known fact that smoking is associated with blockages in the blood vessels of the penis which hinders the blood flow necessary for an erection. You can use the support of family and friends as they provide emotional strength. Anti-smoking chewing gums also help as they help you in suppressing the craving for smoking. Try indulging in the activities you enjoy, like some sport, reading, watching movies, going for walks, exercising etc., which would not only help you relax but would immensely bring the stress level down and, hence, improve your sexual ability.

Massage and yoga



A vigorous massage with two drops of ylang ylang and clary sage oils, three drops of geranium oil and two and a half spoons of almond oil massaged on the back, legs and abdomen would revive muscular vigor essential for nervous energy. Some of the asanas such as dhanur asana, sarvang asana and hal asana improve blood flow. This massage and exercise routine could be carried out with one’s partner also.

Vitamins and minerals



Nutritional supplements like vitamin A, C, E, zinc and arginine have been shown to conquer erectile dysfunction. Vitamin A, C and E deficiency could be one of the causes behind this condition, so eating a diet rich in these vitamins and taking additional supplements could help to make the situation better. Some of the foods rich in these vitamins are milk products, fish, meat, legumes, cold pressed vegetable oils, citrus and most other fruits, broccoli, capsicum, wholegrain cereals, lentils, beans, nuts and seeds etc.
Zinc is a significant mineral in boosting sexual desire and capacity. Milk products, fish, shellfish, meat, wholegrain cereals, root vegetables, legumes, garlic and sprouted seeds are some of the foods are helpful in the growth of reproductive enzymes. Take zinc supplements of 15-20 mg every day along with a copper supplement. L-arginine, an amino acid which the body uses to make nitric oxide, is a substance which helps in relaxation of the smooth muscles in the penis which allows enhanced blood flow leading to an erection.

Walnuts



Walnut is known for its rich properties helpful in combating erectile dysfunction. A mixture prepared with one part of walnut and one part of honey taken 3 times a day and a glass of milk taken right after for 1 month is a simple and effective remedy for erectile dysfunction. It is easy to prepare this concoction and it brings a long term relief to the problem.
