Thanks for checking out our blog, you never know what we're going to blog about, lol, glad you joined us!
Today, we're touching on a 'taboo' subject. lol, females, orgasms and cannabis, lol.
One of my favorite quotes from Dr. Ruth Westheimer (RIP Dr. Ruth):
It's up to the man to not be offended when she tells him what she needs. He shouldn't say, "I know that!" And he shouldn't say, "The woman that I had before you had ten orgasms without her telling me anything!" ~Dr. Ruth~
Over half of women have faked an orgasm. Surprised? Probably not, lol. But while some women fake it from time-to-time, for others the lack of the ability to reach orgasm is a far more debilitating issue.
Female Orgasm Disorder (FOD), sometimes referred to as orgasm dysfunction, occurs when a female has difficulty reaching orgasm, even when they are sexually aroused. It affects millions of women worldwide and yet remains drastically under-studied! "Women think orgasm is supposed to be spontaneous," Researchers say. "It can be. But we have to learn about it." "FOD has been linked to heart disease and cardiovascular issues, while a 2019 study found that sexually active women with type 1 diabetes, 51% of women reporting female sexual dysfunction had problems with orgasm." "If we start to actually ask women if they orgasm or not when screening for medical conditions, we may find out that lack of orgasm is linked to other health conditions. We know that during orgasm massive amounts of oxytocin are released. And what condition is related to lack of oxytocin? Alzheimer's disease. We also know that women in their 60's are twice as likely to develop Alzheimer's. We will not know until we start asking the questions!"
Statement by: Dr. Suzanne Mulvehill, Founder of the Female Orgasm Research Institute. The female orgasm, the subject of so many myths and folk beliefs, is gradually being understood. Studies estimate that 10%-15% of women have never had an orgasm, and nearly half report some degree of anorgasmia - absent, infrequent, unsatisfying, or painful orgasm and some also cannot have orgasms through masturbation. According to a 2019 survey, around 43% of women in the US have some sort of problem with their sex lives! Some of this may be down to external factors like upbringing, but studies showed there's significant genetic factors involved also. Sexual satisfaction and orgasms are more rooted in psychology for women, and in physiology for in men.
Sexual satisfaction among women is predicted by more than just orgasm frequency. It's a common myth that orgasm "is all about the clitoris," says Ellen Heed, PhD, a somatic psychologist with a specialty in sexological bodywork and a practice based in Ashland, OR. Actually, it's a "reproductive-system response" in which a woman's erectile tissues becomes engorged, round ligaments lift the cervix, and neurons in the brain fire in the response to arousal. The female orgasm is a puzzle for evolutionary biologists. It is unclear why women should have orgasms at all, and it is particularly baffling that so many women should be unable to have orgasms during penetrative sex, but able to have them by masturbation. According to researchers Elisabeth Lloyd, that implies that female orgasms are an evolutionary accident. Like male nipples, they persist simply because there is no good reason to get rid of them, lol.
It's folk wisdom that people can't thing straight when they have sex on their minds, but when women have an orgasm most of their brains switch off, lol.
A brain scan study showed that many areas of the women's brains were deactivated during orgasm, including those involved in emotion. The effect was less striking in men, but that may be because male orgasms are so short they are hard to detect in a brain scan, lol.
A study conducted among 400 women between March 2022 - November 2022, evaluated baseline demographics, sexual behavior, mental health, cannabis use, and the orgasm subscale questions of the Female Sexual Function Index (FSFI), evaluating orgasm frequency, orgasm satisfaction, and orgasm ease, with and without cannabis before sex. The majority of women in the study who reported difficulty reaching orgasm were between the ages of 25-67, and 82% were married or in a relationship. Among those respondents reporting orgasm difficulty, cannabis use before partnered sex was found to increase orgasm frequency (72.8%), improve orgasm satisfaction (67%) or making reaching orgasm easier (71%). According to the findings, the frequency of cannabis use before partnered sex correlated with increased orgasm frequency for women with FOD, while orgasm response to cannabis depended on the reasons for use. These findings echo 50 years of research, Dr. Mulvehill says.
Apologies for the blog being so long, lol, this is a subject we're going to blog about again, it's a must because in order to break the stigma, we've got to chat, blog and yell about it as much.
On the next blog, we will share a bit of personal insight on the subject, along with announcing the best cultivars to help arousal and increase orgasms!
