3 Reasons You Need to Use Lubricants While Having Sex

About 66% of India's population falls in the age group of 14 to 65 years, making it the youngest country in the world, and yet, the people can't stop pretending that sex doesn't exist in the society. It is still a taboo and sex toys aren’t really something we shop for! However, the reality is that the market for sexual wellness in India stands firmly at US$227.8 million, while the global market is over US$22 billion.

The market was expected to grow at an average rate of 34.8% between 2014 and 2019. This means that although people shy away from accepting it, they do use sexual products and are satisfied with the results too! And one product that has seen a huge market all over the world, as well as in India, is the lubricant.

Benefits of Using Sex Lube


1.      It Helps in Smooth Sex

During sex, the rush of blood to the genitals prompts various vaginal glands and mucous cells to secrete fluids, making intercourse easier for the couple. However, there are times when the body might not produce enough lubrication, leading to painful penetration. This very normal and does not always indicate a problem. This is also where using a lubricant can be very useful. It helps in getting rid of vaginal dryness and also provides a new sensation during sex. The foreplay also gives time for the body to warm up for the act.

2.      It Helps You Concentrate

Most people have so many things running through their mind even during sexual activity. Thoughts like whether you are doing enough, if you partner is experiencing pleasure or whether your vagina is too dry can often backfire and spoil your overall experience. Using a sex lube helps by taking care of what the anxiety would have robbed your body of – the needed moisture for penetration. You can use Durex Play Massage Gel or Durex Play Lube that are specifically designed to enhance pleasure.

3.      It Makes Sex More Pleasurable Than Painful

First of all, when your partner knows that you are using a sex lube, they’ll be less nervous about hurting you, which is always a good thing. Secondly, since it makes the act smoother, it takes away a lot of the anxiety that one might otherwise experience.

When it comes to anal sex, lubrication is highly recommended for safety and pleasure, since this area of the human body does not have any natural lubricant. While choosing the lube, keep in mind the condom that you are using too, to ensure that it does not lead to the condom rupturing or slipping off.
