Does CBD Oil Make You Last Longer in Bed?

How Does CBD Work on the Body?

CBD stands for cannabidiol. It is a cannabinoid (look again: those are two different words), which are compounds found in the cannabis plant. In the case of CBD, that cannabis plant is the hemp plant.

In contrast to THC, CBD is not intoxicating but does have dramatic effects on our bodies and minds. It accomplishes this by being compatible with our bodies’ endocannabinoid systems. Within the endocannabinoid system, there are receptors that CBD binds to, which affects the ways our bodies work.

For instance, CBD’s indirect activation can lead to anticonvulsant, antidepressant, anti-inflammatory, and other effects.

How Does this Relate to Sex?

You know those endocannabinoid receptors? Yeah, there are some of them in our balls and our brains. That means CBD can have a direct effect on our sexual experience.

We don’t know exactly how, though. Some studies have found cannabinoids help with sex drive, while others have found the opposite. However, CBD can improve libido by helping reduce anxiety, which is at the root of many problems with sexual performance. When you relieve anxiety, sexual desire usually increases.

At this point, many of the reports claiming CBD helps sexual stamina are anecdotal. Until the science comes in, we’ll be relying on what we know now.

Some CBD products currently on the market are designed to treat the following sexual issues:

1. Erectile Dysfunction

A trusted research institution published an article describing how Ayurveda practitioners have long used cannabinoids like CBD to help people improve sexual performance.

This could be because CBD may help relax blood vessels, promoting better blood flow to the penis. This leads to reduced erectile dysfunction and better sexual stamina. However, this needs further testing.

2. Vaginal Dryness

A lack of lubrication can lead to painful sex. CBD lubricants can promote more pleasurable sex by eliminating dryness and stimulating blood flow.

Future research is likely to focus on the tie between CBD’s anti-inflammatory properties and its potential as a sex improver.

3. Low Libido

Because CBD interacts heavily with the brain, it has the potential to increase sexual desire. In 2017, a study showed that cannabis use led to increased activity in the part of the brain that handles sexual arousal. This suggests that it could lead to a higher sex drive.

How Can I Safely Experiment with CBD for Sexual Stamina?

If you’re curious about setting off into the uncharted waters of CBD-supported sex, there’s good news: you’re probably safe doing so.

CBD is overwhelmingly safe and is associated with few side effects. Most of the known side effects are mild and include things like nausea, dizziness, or drowsiness.

You should try different products and note whether they work for you in the bedroom.

CBD edibles (chocolate, gummies, etc.) are a great place to start. Some edibles contain both CBD and THC and are designed to enhance your sexual experience by including herbal aphrodisiacs as well as cannabinoids.

You can and should try CBD massage lotion as well. Not only is this a great way to get a boost of THC into your and your partners’ systems, it’s great foreplay and provides a great way to connect with your partner. CBD massage oil also moisturizes skin and is non-greasy.

There are also natural CBD arousal oil products for sale. These are specifically designed to help women reduce vaginal discomfort. They may also help with male sexual stamina.

No matter what you try, keep note of the changes you observed and the doses you used. This will help you understand what’s working versus what may be a placebo effect.

How to Make it Sexy

It’s worth noting that if you want to try CBD for sexual stamina, it’s important to keep it sexy. The following are ideas on how to do this:

• Try eating CBD edibles together before sex
• Give each other sensual CBD massages
• Apply CBD lubricants to each other
• Take a CBD oil tincture together before sex

CBD is a wonderful product, and there’s little doubt it can help the sexual experience in more than one way. Experiment safely — we wish you all the luck in the world!
