Can CBD Make Sex Better?

As mentioned, CBD doesn’t directly impact your sex drive. However, according to research, it may help impact other areas that are causing problems in your sex life. These include:

• Anxiety and stress
• Increased pleasure (in women) *
• Pain from chronic conditions
• Relaxing muscles *

When all is factored in, you can see why some people are turning to CBD products for sexual arousal. Again, while CBD doesn’t directly impact the libido, it helps prep the body for such pleasures.

Even more so, cannabinoid receptors have been found in reproductive organs and sexual tissues. That said, it’s understood that CBD may help to increase blood flow and sensitivity to these areas.

On top of this, due to CBD’s effects on the body, it may help in relieving conditions that normally inhibit sex. For example, due to its pain-relieving effects, CBD may be a prominent therapy in women who experience cramps or sexual pains.

*According to this research, CBD works best when paired with tetrahydrocannabinol (THC).

In order to make your CBD shopping experience easier, we’ve laid out our top picks of CBD products to buy for sex:

When it comes to sex and intimacy, there’s no better CBD brand than Foria Wellness. While they have a wide collection of different products to choose from, our personal favorite is their Awaken Arousal Oil.

This contains a broad-spectrum CBD extract (100% THC-free) and is designed using other active ingredients to help stimulate sexual arousal. Such ingredients include kava root, cinnamon, ginger, and vanilla. On top of this, the Arousal Oil is made using essential oils to help with lubrication, including cardamom, peppermint, and cacao absolute.

The Awaken Arousal Oil is meant to be used as a lubricant. With that, it’s best to apply to sexual areas about 15 minutes before your bedroom activity. From there, it will resume to act as a lubricant to continually provide you with sexual comfort.

The only downside to this Oil is the fact that it can degrade latex and poly-isoprene condoms. That said, if you plan on using the Awaken Arousal Oil, you should stick to polyurethane or nitrile condoms.

Another topical that’s proven to have a lot of success in the bedroom is the Bliss Intimate Oil offered by Ananda Hemp. This topical was created by a female reproductive medicine specialist alongside a cannabis clinician. That said, it incorporates some of the best ingredients to be used during sexual activity.

The most important of these is the 250mg of full-spectrum CBD per bottle. While not the largest amount, the full-spectrum hemp extract allows for the entourage effect. Such an effect may be beneficial to those who haven’t found success in broad-spectrum or CBD isolate products.

Furthermore, the lubricant incorporates other stimulating ingredients, including peppermint and black pepper. Again, the only downside with such ingredients is you can’t use this on latex condoms.

If you’re still not sure whether or not CBD may be beneficial for you, Ananda’s Bliss Intimate Oil is great for beginners. They offer these in a Trial Pack (comes with 5 doses at 10mg each) for just $14.99.

If you’re looking for an easy way to consume cannabidiol, there’s no better option than CBD gummies. Beyond their convenience, they often come in delicious flavors – making the whole consumption experience all the more enjoyable.

One of our favorite CBD gummies comes from FOCL. They’re made in a full-spectrum and broad-spectrum (THC-free) extract and come with 25mg per serving. We chose these gummies specifically due to the dosage. Such a dose is standard and will ensure you’re not overwhelmed by the effects. Furthermore, if you need more CBD than offered here, you can always opt to take 2 gummies at 50mg.

Just like other CBD gummies, FOCL’s come in a variety of flavors, including Sour Watermelon, Tropical Punch, and Mandarin Orange. If you’re looking to try all 3, they offer a variety pack at 20% off.

The best part about FOCL gummies though is the fact that they now offer a line of THC-infused products. Remember how we said THC may be more of an ideal solution for sexual pleasure? FOCL provides you with a very viable (and legal) way of obtaining such products.

Since there are so many CBD brands offering so many products, it can be difficult to navigate this industry. That said, there are a few things you’ll want to keep in mind when purchasing CBD products for sex:

Please note that you can develop a tolerance to CBD. That said, if you’ve been taking it for some time, you may need to up your dosage in order to garner the initial effects.
