Alcohol consumption can have very different effects on women’s ability to orgasm. It depends on that.
Alcohol disinhibits and therefore also makes you want to have sex more. But what about women’s ability to orgasm? Do we climax better or not at all when alcohol is involved? We explain.
Desire for sex increases through alcohol consumption
Alcohol can certainly have positive effects on our psyche: We are euphoric, lose our fears and inhibitions fall. No wonder so many people use alcohol as a tool on a first date, or couples reach for the bottle before trying something new in bed. After all, a few glasses help us lose the pressure of having to perform extraordinarily in bed, and complexes about our bodies also fade into the background.
Moreover, alcohol increases libido – not only in men, but also in women. The reason: alcohol increases the testosterone level in women. The sex hormone not only provides sexual pleasure, but also improves the ability to have an orgasm. But only in small doses.
Alcohol content in the blood is difficult to calculate
However, the calculation is not so easy, because the amount of alcohol we have in our blood depends on many factors: Gender, body weight and also whether we drink on an empty stomach or have laid a good foundation affect the alcohol content in the blood. Therefore, if you want to take advantage of the positive effects on better arousal, you should leave it at one glass of wine.
Too much alcohol reduces the ability to orgasm
Pleasure can quickly turn into frustration under the influence of alcohol, because as soon as you have too much alcohol in your blood, the tide can quickly turn. If you drink too much, you’ll not only have to deal with articulation problems, dizziness, and nausea (which makes you not want to have sex anyway), but you’ll also have a harder time coming. This has to do with dampened sensitivity. Sensitivity decreases more and more with the amount of alcohol. Alcohol dulls not only pain, but also positive sensations. As a result, the ability to orgasm is diminished and many women are unable to come at all above a certain level. This is also the case with men, who also suffer from erectile dysfunction.
