Study Reveals Women’s Sexual Desire Increases For Some Of Pregnancy

The second trimester of pregnancy is often referred to the “honeymoon period” because symptoms start to fade and the desire to have sex returns. But a new study suggests that the window of opportunity for sex during this trimester is shorter than previously thought. Researchers surveyed more than 200 US women about how often they had sex during each week of their pregnancy. 

Overall, the probability of getting it on increased only around 60 percent of the second trimester, which is something of a surprise because the whole of the second trimester has commonly been considered prime time for sex. “We hope the results will help clinicians provide beneficial information about the fluctuations of sexual behaviour during pregnancy, and spread awareness around potential sudden declines in sexual frequency, which can in turn prepare or reassure women and partners alike.” The NHS adds it’s “perfectly safe” for women to have sex during their pregnancy unless a doctor or midwife has told them not to.

Anal Sex Taboos Put Generation Of Women At Risk, Doctors Say

Straight women are leaning in to anal sex–or should we say bending over? The most recent statistics provided by the Centers for Disease Control and the National Center for Health Statistics showed that more than a third—35%—of women aged 15 to 49 have tried anal sex with a male partner. A similar survey of 880 “sexually active adults” showed that 70% of women have tried anal sex at least once.

In the spirit of a new age of sexual exploration and health awareness, doctors published an editorial urging more clinicians to talk to women about engaging in anal sex. “Clinicians may shy away from these discussions, influenced by society’s taboos,” wrote the doctors with the UK’s National Health System, adding “By avoiding these discussions, we may be failing a generation of young women, who are unaware of the risks.” Physicians and healthcare workers, especially those in primary care and family medicine, “have a duty to acknowledge changes in society around anal sex in young women, and to meet these changes with open neutral and non-judgemental conversations to ensure that all women have the information they need to make informed choices about sex,” they wrote.

Cyclists Are More Prone To Erectile Dysfunction, Study Finds

Researchers from the New England Research Institutes found that male cyclists are at risk of erectile problems and possibly infertility. The problem is that riding a bike can put pressure on the Alcock canal (no pun intended?), a part of the male anatomy that contains nerves and arteries that feed the genital area, causing loss of sensation and other problems. The good news is the risks are only for cyclists who ride a lot, who are 70 percent more likely than non-cyclists to have moderate or severe erectile dysfunction.

Researchers also found that men who cycled for less than three hours a week not only didn’t have a problem, but that modest levels of cycling seemed to be positively good for their sex lives, with 40 percent less chance of suffering from erectile dysfunction than those who never cycle. Although erectile dysfunction is a common and distressing condition for men, cycling is not up there as a leading cause. Most cases of erectile dysfunction are actually caused by smoking (which doubles your risk), high blood pressure (which also doubles your risk), excessive drinking, being overweight and stress— all in some way affecting blood flow, nerve sensitivity and or hormones such as testosterone.

Men Who Watch Porn Find Women’s Bodies Less Attractive, But Not Their Faces

Researchers from Abertay University found that men who watch porn find women’s bodies less attractive—but their viewing habits do not influence how they see their faces.  The study found that “much greater nuance” was required when considering the real effect of pornography on relationships. The lead researcher said: “What these findings suggest is that while sexual arousal induced via pornography plays some role in men’s attractiveness judgements of women, it is far from a simple stimulus-response relationship where some would suggest that watching porn has a universally negative impact on how men view other women.”

Participants in the study were asked to look at a series of porn stars either clothed, nude or engaged in sex, and then rate the attractiveness of other women. Researchers found that looking at adult entertainers reduced the attractiveness of familiar women’s bodies in the eyes of the participants, but not their faces. “Future research could explore these same effects in women and how porn consumption may influence attractiveness judgments over a long time period, and how the personality traits of the person viewing pornography also matter,” the researcher added.

Science Finds Best Sex Position To Help Women Cum Better

Missionary gets the shaft as the most boring sex position, but a new study finds quite the opposite is true. It seems male on top with a pillow to prop the woman’s hips is the best way to get blood flow to the clitoris and achieve orgasm, according to researchers. Doctors used an ultrasound scanner to measure blood flow on a test couple as they got it on in five positions for 10 minutes each, including face-to-face with female above (“The Cowgirl”), face-to-face and seated (“Lotus”), face-to-face with male above, with and without a pillow (“Missionary”) and kneeling with woman bending over (“Doggy-style”).

Face-to-face positions generally enhanced clitoral blood flow, leading to better orgasms. “The kneeling/rear entry position produces the least amount of direct clitoral contact, and resulted in a negligible increase in blood flow compared to the face-to-face positions,” researchers wrote. The pillow was key to maximum pleasure as they offer deeper penetration, especially “sex pillows” that provide “more precise and consistent pelvic angulation than conventional bed pillows.”

Great Orgasms Are Inherited In Your DNA, Study Says

The ability to have earth-shattering orgasms is partially genetic, British researchers have uncovered. The study, which focused on female orgasms, asked identical and nonidentical twins two questions: “Overall, how frequently do you experience an orgasm during intercourse?” and “How frequently do you experience an orgasm during masturbation by yourself or a partner?” Researchers were interested in uncovering whether there was a difference in answers between the sets of identical and nonidentical twins.

Identical twins share a DNA code with each other, meaning the differences in their answers were likely a result of the different environments in which they were induced into orgasm. Nonidentical twins, on the other hand, only share 50% of their DNA, meaning differences in their answers come down to genetics as well as the different environments in which they might come to orgasm. Sure enough, the researchers found that genetic factors played an important role, accounting for up to 60% of a woman’s ability to reach the big O.

Man Suffers Amnesia After Sex

Maybe the sex was forgettable? A 66-year-old Irish man was rushed to a hospital with short-term amnesia after an “afternoon delight” with his wife. The unusual incident was analyzed in the Irish Medical Journal, with doctors declaring that sex is a trigger for short-term amnesia—officially as known as Transient Global Amnesia (TGA).

The medical journal reports that he lost his short-term memory “within 10 minutes of sexual intercourse.” The man had previously experienced TGA back in 2015, with that episode also occurring shortly after sexual intercourse—he later regained his short-term memory. The authors explain that “precipitation of TGA has been linked with several activities including physical activity, immersion in cold or hot water, emotional stress, pain… and sexual intercourse.”

Women Could Take ‘On-Demand’ Contraceptive Right Before Sex, Researchers Find

Researchers have discovered an exciting new form of “on-demand” birth control for women. Experts from Stanford University had “promising results” when using a combination of the morning-after pill and an arthritis drug to “disrupt ovulation at peak fertility.” According to the study, the birth control option taken orally just before sex “may be the best candidate” for last-minute contraceptive.

The results concluded that the drug combination can interrupt ovulation “when conception risk is highest,” but noted that more research is necessary. Current birth control methods often include unreliable options for women resulting in hormone imbalances and other undesirable side effects. The new method is especially timely as recent laws across the country are restricting access to abortion.

Sex Helps Ease Hay Fever Symptoms

We’ve got good news for allergy sufferers: sex is the cure. Researchers have found fucking could help banish hay fever symptoms. According to scientists in Iran, during orgasm the nervous system constricts blood vessels, which can ease a blocked nose and clear streaming eyes.

Researchers claim getting it on would be a lot more pleasurable and far cheaper than taking antihistamines. “It can be done from time to time to alleviate the congestion and the patient can adjust the number of intercourses depending on the severity of the symptoms.” Yet another good reason to stay in bed when the pollen count is high…

Electric Shock To Penis May Cure Premature Ejaculation, Study Finds

There might be a “shocking” new cure for blowing your load too soon. Researchers were able to help one man last roughly seven times longer in bed after undergoing electric-current therapy. A recent study published in the Asian Journal of Urology reported how Beirut-based medics ran an electrical current through a man’s penis to stimulate his dorsal penile nerve, one of the nerves that gathers movement and sensation information from the penis.

The unidentified man—who was only able to last for 40 seconds during sex—was treated with the zapping therapy by sticking electrodes to his penis for 30 minutes of continuous current three times a week. Fifteen months after the treatments began, the man recorded an average of 4.9 minutes for his sexual performance. Although the electric-shock process “is not fully understood,” the therapy’s success has doctors calling for more studies to be conducted.
