Sex on drugs and drugs during sex
Sex is fun and can bring us to ecstasy. It's much the same with drugs. Legal and illegal substances affect our perception, reduce inhibitions, and can alter our sensations of touch and pain. Some can also lead to increased pleasure and longer erections. That's why many people like to associate their sex with drug use or vice versa. However, especially in high doses and with continuous use, many substances also reduce the sensation of pleasure.
When it comes to substance use and sex, the following always applies: What works totally well for one person may not feel good at all for another . Sex is only nice when each sex partner always (!) agrees with all practices. And if each*r pays attention to their own health.
Drug use often lowers your inhibitions. It can be a lot of fun, but it can also lead you to do things that you didn't really want to do, that make you uncomfortable afterwards, or that endanger your health. However, there is no justification for abuse - not even prior consumption.
Therefore, inform yourself beforehand about the substances and their effects on your body and your sexual experience. Always follow safer use rules. Also for prescribed drugs and legal stimulants.
People who automatically associate pleasurable sexual experiences with substance use, or who can only imagine sex in terms of substance effects, often tend toward risky use and dependence. Approach regular sex without drugs slowly. If you find that you can't do it on your own, seek professional help.
Whether you intentionally combine sex and drugs or have sex after consuming something, this always applies:
It's best to discuss in a sober state how far you want to go, what you like and don't like, and set rules and/or a code word that stands for stop and no, respectively.
Note, however, that this consensus is fluid! Ask again and again in between, get the confirmation of the partner(s) also for what is supposedly okay.
It's ok to change your mind at any point before and during sex. No means no. Only yes means yes.
⫸ Practice safe sex!
⫸ Condoms/femidoms provide the best protection against STIs. It is therefore best to always have them handy.
⫸ Many substances dry out the mucous membranes. This can lead to minor injuries or even cause the condom to tear more quickly. It is therefore best to use (the right!) lubricant gel.
⫸ Get tested regularly for sexually transmitted infections (STIs).
⫸ You can find out more about safer sex here.
⫸ Pill : If you vomit, a pill you have previously taken may not work reliably. The continuous use of many substances can also disrupt your blood circulation and hormone balance.
⫸ Substance use can affect your menstrual cycle and lead to missed periods - but you may still be able to get pregnant.
⫸ In both cases, it is therefore even more urgently recommended to use additional contraceptionwith a condom/femidom.
⫸ Pregnant? It is best to stop everything immediately. Absolutely avoid alcohol and other downers. Most upper also have aneurotoxiceffect. Be careful with cannabis and avoid smoking altogether. Psychedelics can trigger premature labor.
Alcohol and other downers cloud your consciousness and often lower your inhibitions. This can lead you to find practices (or people!) great that you would otherwise not find so great.
⫸ All downers slow metabolism and often lead to dehydration. Downers numb and suppress pain stimuli; injuries are often no longer felt. Set limits, do not try new, unwanted practices, and use plenty of lube.
⫸ Sex and alcohol isprobably themost common combination. Already from about 0.5 per mille, he often no longer gets hard and she often no longer wet. In addition, coming is often no longer so easy. In the long term, too much alcohol often leads to little desire for sex. Alcohol can also lead to infertility or damage to the unborn child. Consistently abstain from alcohol during pregnancy.
⫸ Sex and GHB/GBL: G leads to muscle relaxation as well as to sensitization of the sense of touch and is therefore sometimes deliberately used to enhance sexual experience. However, the difference between a pleasure-increasing and a mind-disturbing or comatose effect is very narrow, and the risk of crashing is therefore great. This is again increased in combination with alcohol and other downers More info on G safer use can be found here. Unfortunately, G (as well as alcohol) is also used by some to make other people submissive - great caution is called for More about knockout drops and sexualized violence can be found here.
⫸ Sex and benzos or opiates: In the short term, relaxation can occur and inhibitions can fall away. With long-term use, the libido usually suffers tremendously.
Ketamine greatly alters your body perception. Everything feels softer, your sense of pain is inhibited and reflexes (gag reflex or muscle contractions) are slowed down, the body as a whole is strongly anesthetized.
⫸ Injuries are often not noticed. Take special care to know your limits well and to adhere to them despite anesthesia.
⫸ Too much keta knocks out and leaves you helpless and defenseless.
Stimulant drugs like cocaine, speed, crystal, or MDMA increase your performance and speed up your heart rate. Sex triggers similar reactions in your body and can overload your circulation. This can lead to a racing heart or dizziness or circulatory overload.
⫸ Slow down, take breaks, cool down, and don't forget to drink water (in small sips).
⫸ You may feel like having sex for a very long time. However, you may not get it up on uppers or the erection may remain incomplete - be prepared to possibly enjoy sex in other ways.
⫸ The mucous membranes dry out. Therefore, use plenty of lubricant and apply it more often, especially during long sex.
⫸ This also applies especially to cocaine. Since this is a strong local anesthetic, you may become sore without realizing it. Continuous use also usually leads to a significant decrease in the desire for sex.
Sildenafil (trade name: Viagra) and other PDE-5 inhibitors such as Cialis and Levitra dilate the vessels, which causes a lot of blood to flow into the erectile tissue.
⫸ In combination with poppers, an acutely life-threatening drop in blood pressure may occur.
If you have had unprotected sexual intercourse, you need to act quickly:
⫸ You can also get the morning-after pill without a prescription at the pharmacy or have it prescribed by your gynecologist.
⫸ With post-exposure prophylaxis (PEP), you can reduce the risk of contracting HIV more information here: Aids Hilfe Berlin
