Unlocking the Secrets of the Sexual Toolbox: A Guide for Women 50 and Over
A recent poll found that many menopausal women aged 50 and over experience pain during sex but continue to engage in it due to resignation and a sense of duty. Lack of communication and hushed discussions about vaginal health contribute to this issue. However, more than half of women in this age group keep a "sexual toolbox" filled with products like lubricants, vaginal moisturizers, sex toys, sensory aids, condoms, wipes, and prioritize pleasure and comfort during sexual experiences. These tools can help address common causes of pain during sex, such as vaginal dryness, and enhance intimacy and emotional connection. Communication is also emphasized as a crucial aspect of a fulfilling sex life. A sexual toolbox empowers women and serves as a reminder that their pleasure matters.
