SEX AND MENOPAUSE
- Posted on
Sex after menopause is something that I until recently knew little about. I am younger so its not an issue for me yet, but day after day I meet woman here at the art of loving that ask for help on this tricky topic. So, I took it upon myself to do a bit of research so I can better help anyone who comes into the shop.
First thing is lube which is something everyone has heard before. Really lube is great for anyone at any point in their life but especially so during and after menopause. Due to the drop-in estrogen levels vaginal walls can thin making vaginal intercourse more painful at times. A solution to this is lubes of which we have a large selection here at our sex shop but its also good to talk to your doctor about estrogen creams that can also be derived from natural sources that can help solve this problem.
Now a benefit of menopause is of course the lack of pregnancy risk. But something that doesn’t go away is the risk of STI’s. We have a large selection of male condoms, female condoms and dental dams that can help keep you and your partners safe.
Finally, an article I read tells me that a woman’s ability to orgasm may change slightly along with there sex drive and it depends on the person as to how this may affect you. If your sex drive or ability to orgasm decreases though our shop has several toys and products that may help. We carry several stimulating clit gels that are all natural and very effective plus we have many high-quality vibes that will get anyone where they need to go. Hopefully this was reassuring and we hope to see you in shop to pick up some toys and chat about your experience with sex and menopause.
