Hoping to have a romantic evening with your partner? Scientists have discovered that drinking wine might actually hinder your chances. According to a scientific review, women who consume alcohol are 74% more likely to experience sexual dysfunction, leading to less satisfying sexual experiences.
The review analyzed seven different studies on alcohol and female sexual problems, involving over 50,000 women between the ages of 18 and 79. Based on these studies, researchers concluded that alcohol consumption can reduce women’s sensitivity to touch, resulting in a lower libido, decreased arousal during sex, and less intense sexual experiences.
The research team from Gerash University of Medical Sciences in Iran suggests that policymakers should prioritize raising awareness among women about the negative effects of alcohol on sexual performance. By doing so, they hope to reduce alcohol consumption and its associated side effects, including sexual dysfunction.
While it is well known that excessive alcohol can affect men’s sexual performance, such as causing erectile dysfunction, this review focuses on the impact alcohol has on women’s ability to orgasm or experience intense orgasms.
The review is believed to be the first of its kind to examine the relationship between alcohol and sexual problems in women. It is estimated that up to 40% of women suffer from sexual dysfunction, which can lead to stress and relationship difficulties.
Interestingly, a study conducted in Ghana found a significant link between alcohol and sexual issues in women, while other factors such as education, age, marital status, smoking, and exercise did not show similar associations.
It is important to note that the review’s authors suggest that the negative effects on sexual satisfaction are likely to be long-term and seen in women who regularly consume alcohol. This does not mean that every time a woman drinks, she will have disappointing sexual experiences.
If you are concerned about your alcohol consumption, you can use the AUDIT (Alcohol Use Disorders Identification Tests), a screening tool developed in collaboration with the World Health Organization. The tool consists of 10 questions that can help determine if someone has alcohol abuse problems.
Scores below 8 indicate low risk, scores between 8 and 15 suggest a medium level of risk, scores between 16 and 19 indicate a higher risk, and scores of 20 or above may suggest dependence. Seeking professional help from a GP or counselor may be necessary for those with higher scores.
In conclusion, it is wise for women to be aware of the potential negative effects of alcohol on their sexual performance and consider moderation when it comes to consumption.
