Menopause is a natural phase of a woman's life that usually comes with its fair share of challenges.

From hot flashes to mood swings, it can be a rollercoaster ride of changes but we're here to talk you through how sex toys may help you embrace it all.


What happens to arousal after menopause?

According to Healthline, there are some physical and emotional changes that may affect your arousal after menopause. These changes may be because of:

  • Vaginal discomfort
  • Reduced libido
  • Diminished clitoral sensitivity
  • Experiencing pain or discomfort during sexual activity

But that doesn't mean that sex and masturbation goes downhill from here, there are still plenty of other ways you can enjoy both.

We'll dive deeper below into how you can embrace these changes.




Sex toys 

Whether you're thinking of using adult toys for solo masturbation or together with your partner, it's completely normal to spice things up from your usual routine.

If you're with a partner and haven't used adult toys before, make sure to talk with them about it first!

Remember, this is something you want to do to enhance your sexual pleasure and it doesn't mean your partner is not enough for you.




Exploring various toys may be necessary to discover what is best for you but it can be frustrating to invest in something that may not ultimately suit your needs- it's all about experimentation.

Be sure to explore sex toys with different vibration levels and intensities to enhance your experience!

Here are some popular recommendations amongst women who are in menopause:
