How CBD Can Improve Your Sex Life

CBD can help people have better sex by treating different sexual conditions and helping partners feel more relaxed.

Marijuana and sex are compatible for a reason. Cannabis users of all ages support this theory and studies also offer some support, finding that THC can help people achieve more powerful orgasms and a more pleasant sexual experience, especially for women.

While many credit the THC high as marijuana’s most beneficial sexual aid, CBD could help people who have stress or performance anxiety without the psychedelic high that THC produces, which can at times be anxiety-inducing.

According to experts, CBD can reduce pain, promote relaxation and enhance sensations without the fuzzy feeling that THC causes. Here’s how CBD can help with your sex life.

Anxiety and nervousness

CBD edibles can help people cope with anxiety and nervousness, but there are edibles designed specifically with sex in mind. These types of products contain THC and other aphrodisiac components, while also ensuring that the dosage in them is low enough so that it won’t impair sexual performance. Edibles with a focus on sex tend to contain small amounts of THC in order to provide the best possible results.

For women who tend to suffer from painful sex or who simply want to feel more, CBD lubricants can help them relax while also enhancing their experience. CBD is an anti-inflammatory agent; when placed directly on the skin it could provide fast acting effects and could help people focus more and stay present.

Strains with equal amounts of THC and CBD can improve sex, especially when incorporated into foreplay. When the weed kicks in, couples will likely experience stronger desire and arousal, while also adding a new edge to their sexual experience. This method is preferable for people who have some experience with cannabis, since if you consume too large of a dose, sexual pleasure can be reduced.
