Are there any natural aphrodisiacs?

I am sorry you are out of luck. While many people have been selling so called natural aphrodisiacs online, all of them are bogus. Everything under the sun at one time has been ascribed properties of a sex stimulant. Some people claim that chocolate is an aphrodisiac. Other exotic items that have been hyped up to attract the female include drinking goat’s urine, eating a hippo’s balls, rubbing a snake’s gallbladder on your body, smelling donkeys poop, showering in elephant urine and so on. The list is endless.

In fact today, many scam artists have been adding prescription drugs to natural products. Viagra has been found as a contaminant in many so called natural aphrodisiacs from the Orient. While most of these substances are harmless, they can be dangerous if you are on certain medications.

Best advice, stay away from this crap. If you want a real aphrodisiac, start communicating with your partner, dress decent, eat healthy- and lose excess weight. Females are attracted to what is in between your eyes and not what is in your pants- I think?

Does Spanish fly work as an aphrodisiac?

Well, it only works if you want to attract female beetles. Of course, it does not work in humans. Spanish fly is a pretty looking beetle from which canthardin is extracted. For decades, some people have been claiming that this extract is an aphrodisiac. You apply this chemical on your penis and somehow it attracts females. The chemical is a powerful irritant and does cause a penile erection. However, this erection is devoid of sexual stimulation because of the intense pain. Prolonged use of this chemical can cause scarring of your penis. 

Best advice; leave the Spanish fly for the beetles. The only thing you are going to get from this aphrodisiac is painful limp penis and a big hospital bill.

I have heard that amyl nitrite works as an aphrodisiac. Is this true?

Amyl nitrite is a volatile inhaled agent, which is widely used by both men and women to enhance sexual foreplay. Many people claim that inhalation of amyl nitrite leas to stunning orgasms.

When you first inhale amyl nitrite, you will feel a sense of warm and exhilaration. During foreplay, the chemical is said to release inhibition in women and helps facilitate penetration. Women claim that it gives them a sensation of truly being filled. Many gay men use amyl nitrite when performing anal intercourse.

So does it work? 

Well, there are only anecdotal reports to go by. Amyl nitrite does have potential side effects like nausea and a booming headache. In fact, there are also reports of death with this chemical. Personally, I doubt that it works as an aphrodisiac. Have never ever had a patient say that they had an erection or aroused sexual feelings. People tend to exaggerate up everything these days and it is hard to differentiate fact from fantasy.

I have heard that yohimbine works as an aphrodisiac. Is this true?

Yohimbine is a very old drug and is extracted from the bark of the plant, Corynanthe Yohimbine. This drug was once used to lower blood pressure and in fact was also used to treat male impotence. Unfortunately, it performed abysmally as a sex stimulant. The drug is no longer on the market as it does have serious side effects. Definitely not a recommended product to boost sex life.

My friends insist that eating oysters enhances their sex life. Is this true?

Unless your friends are mermaids, they are talking from their backside (arse). Because Aphrodite was said to be born from the sea, many types of seafood have reputations as aphrodisiacs. Oysters are particularly esteemed as sex aids, possibly gaining their reputation at a time when their contribution of zinc to the nutritionally deficient diets of the day could improve overall health and so lead to an increased sex drive. So far, the buzz from oysters is an illusion. 

If your sex life sucks, then either you need a new partner or a sex toy.

Are there any natural products sold for sexual enhancement?

supplements sold as sexual enhancers. These include Muira Pauma, Catuaba bark, Cuscuta seed and Epidemium leaf extract. You can take them all together by mouth, boil them and drink them like tea, chew them, paste them on your genitals or even insert them in the arse  - they still wont give you an erection or sexually arouse you. The world has gone mad about herbs. Herbs are not magical substances- the only reason they are so hyped up is because people who manufacture them want to make money. As far as sexual enhancement is concerned, please give herbs a break –they are a complete waste of money.

What type of condom should I use when having sex under water?

Most people seem to think that condoms are 100% percent effective in water. Condoms can prevent pregnancy and STDs but they have a high rate of failure when used under water. Water contains a variety of chemicals like chlorine, detergents, chemicals from sunscreens and tanning lotions all of which can cause small perforations in the condom and make them useless. One should be aware that spermicidal, jellies and sponges should not be used as contraception when having sex in water. These items will immediately become ineffective the moment you enter the water.

The only sure way of not getting pregnant or acquiring an STD is to not have sex.
