Perhaps you and your partner would like to improve your sex life but aren't sure where to start. You may even be worried to bring up the subject with them. A solution may be to down a few drinks to get up the courage to talk to them or to make a suggestion on a new move you'd like to try. And if things in the bedroom haven't been going well, you may feel alcohol will relax you both.
The good news is, in small amounts, alcohol can facilitate sex. It can help you relax and have a disinhibiting effect, where you feel more confident and more able to communicate sexually. It may also increase sexual desire. A glass or two with a romantic dinner may help establish a mood for the evening.
However, beyond the occasional drink, alcohol can negatively impact your sex life and rather than enhance a sexual encounter, can lead to poor decisions and reduced enjoyment of your lovemaking. Alcohol suppresses arousal and inhibits blood flow to the genitals, which means a diminished likelihood of having and maintaining an erection, decreased arousal and a reduced probability of orgasm.
Consuming an excessive amount of alcohol can also have negative physiological and social impacts on your sex life.
In the short term, drinking too much can decrease your sex drive. This is true for both men and women. It can also inhibit performance, leading to an unsatisfactory experience for both of you. With too much to drink, you may not be having sex at all.
Drinking an excessive amount can also impact on your physical health and appearance. Your skin, hair and eyes all reveal signs of the overconsumption of alcohol. If you are drinking excessively and not exercising, you are also more likely to gain weight.
Excessive drinking can negatively influence on your social life. Most people like to have one or two drinks when out with friends, but too much drinking can lead to depression and social isolation.
Drinking alcohol can be a good relaxant at the end of the day, but if you want to get cosy in the bedroom with your partner, don't start downing drinks just to gain the confidence. One or two drinks should be enough for you and your sweetie to set the mood. There are plenty of resources available on how to improve your sex life and are a better guarantee than a bottle.
Problems with your sex life are unlikely to be solved with alcohol. Have fun and enjoy yourself, but remember that good communication and a strong relationship between you and your partner is what will lead to improving your sex life.
