HOT: Ladies, Increase Your Arousal!

Is your libido not as high as it used to be? Here is some advice on how to get it back.

Think about other types of contraception

Even though hormonal contraception can save a lot of money and the trouble of finding the appropriate condom, it also has many negative side effects. Feeling unwell, possible depression, neuroses and irritability definitely do not help with sexual arousal. If you start nagging, soon your partner will slowly but surely start wondering where the relaxed person you used to be had gone.

Such changes of course do not happen in everybody, since women respond to hormonal contraception in different ways. But one of the very common side effects definitely is the reduction of sexual desire, which definitely is not something to be ignored. If you suspect this might be the case, discuss it with your partner and gynecologist and find a solution together.

Physical activity for sexual arousal

Physical activity stimulates the blood flow, puts you in a good mood and leads to sexual desires. If you are constantly sitting and do not give your body the chance to move around, it is no wonder you feel numb and without energy. Being physically active will also help you develop a healthy relationship with your body, because physical exercise brings the feeling that you are doing something for your health. This leads to vitality and at the same time to increased sexual desire.

A passive way of life removes sex from your thoughts, because you are focused on sedentary work or surfing the internet, and you will not even think of all the fun you could be having as a couple. Even though you are constantly looking at pornographic web sites, this will not help you one bit, unless you start turning your passive imagination into practice. And interesting Canadian study has shown that running is the kind of exercise that boosts self-confidence and that regular female runners reach better training times after having an orgasm.

Sexual arousal is connected to self-confidence

Even though you might be a fantastic match with your partner and you still find him attractive, a bad self-image can kill sexual arousal. Think if your libido has always been low because of lack of self-confidence, or have you perhaps gained weight lately. Women are usually very strict with themselves and consider even the tiniest imperfections on their bodies very disturbing. Stretch-marks, cellulites, sagging breasts because of age or birth are a normal part of the development of the female body, so do not be vain ladies.

Start feeling sexy and buy enticing underwear, not only for your partner's pleasure, but for your own. Look at yourself in a mirror and try to find your body parts you like. Maybe you have beautiful eyes, perky breasts, long legs, a beautiful back etc. Either way, sexuality comes from within and you can increase your sexual desire by masturbating while not grading your body but discovering pleasures it can give you.

Use magical foods

Some doubt it that certain foods could awaken sexual desire but that is no reason not to try it. Apart from chocolate, which is one of the most loved aphrodisiacs, there are quite a few more. The idea that something you eat will make you hornier itself can work as a psychological stimulant. It might be placebo, it might be real, you still should try the following delicacies:

-          Oysters:

Oysters are an ancient aphrodisiac which also contains dopamine, the hormone of happiness. The dopamine content is supposed to be especially high in British oysters and it helps with improving the libido of both, men and women.

-          Bananas:

Their form alone makes them erotic and when eating them you can fantasize about oral delights to follow. Bananas actually contain the enzyme bromelain which supposedly also helps improve sexual desire.

-          Garlic:

Even though it has a strong odor, it contains allicin, which improves blood flow in sex organs. If both eat it, the smell will "neutralize" itself, so go for that pizza with the addition of garlic and parsley sauce.
