The Effect of Cannabis on Sex - CanIDeal

Weed and sex have shared a long love affair dating back thousands of years. It was used by ancient cultures to help men stay in the game for longer, delay climax, and help both sexes loosen up in all regards. 

Marijuana users are less likely to commit or be involved in domestic violence than non-users. Research also suggests cannabis users show lower levels of aggression towards their partners in general. The relaxed state cannabis puts individuals in leads to a deeper sense of connection. THC releases dopamine, which leads to feelings of euphoria. 

These are a few of the ways marijuana can enhance your sex life:

More Intense Orgasms

The CB1 receptors have the ability to convert THC into something your body translates into a physical feeling. That sense of euphoria is also heightened and longer-lasting because of these specialized receptors. As a result, orgasms tend to seem that they’ve also lasted longer. 

Having Orgasms

The reason why cannabis results in more intense orgasms is the same reason why it can help users achieve them at all: It activates CB1 receptors, stimulating the mind and the body. Considering that most women experience zero to infrequent orgasms, weed can be especially helpful for women looking to build a more positive relationship with sex.

Makes It Last

Cannabis increases the amount of time it takes for the majority of men to ejaculate. Because it’s an inhibitor, the decreased stress enables users to relax and simply connect with what their body is experiencing without placing judgment on the circumstances. Cannabis also alters the user’s perception of time, which calms the user down and helps them not “rush.”

Makes It Stress-Free

Half of sex is mental. Stress and anxiety can ruin the mood. Fortunately, marijuana is known as a stress-relieving, anti-anxiety treatment. The bedroom could be on fire, but if you’re stoned you might not be too troubled. 

According to Mic.com, “Studies have shown that during arousal and orgasm, parts of the female brain associated with high anxiety and stress deactivate, and many women smoke marijuana to help with this process of mental deactivation.”
