Experts in the US have revealed their benefits could even warrant the devices being prescribed to women free of charge.

The medics said that using a vibrator during masturbation can help a woman reach orgasm faster.

On top of this, it can also help them climax multiple times.

Writing in The Journal of Urology, Dr Alexandra Dubinskaya and her team found evidence to support a host of benefits in women who regularly used a vibrator.

Experts looked at 21 papers that had analysed the use of sex toys for medical benefits.

They noted that women who used one had improved pelvic floor health, reduced vulva pain and also saw an improvement in overall sexual health.

The team of researchers said some women also saw improvements in incontinence.

However, it’s not clear how long you would have to use the device for, before it resulted in an improvement in health.

Prior research had established that women who experience regular orgasms with stress reduction have better sexual health.

In conclusion, they said that vibrators should not just be seen as devices for pleasure – but also a therapeutic gadget.

They said female health specialists and doctors alike could benefit from prescribing vibrators to female patients.

“Considering the potential pelvic health benefits of vibrators, their recommendation to women should be included in our pelvic floor dis-order treatment,” Dr Dubinskaya said.

Experts previously said they were trying to ‘educate’ the NHS on why sex toys could be beneficial to women in more ways than one,

Dr David Goldmeier, consultant and lead clinician in sexual function told The Guardian that many toys can stimulate areas that other things cannot.

“Although I imagine there are women who are not dysfunctional and who just like sex toys, for those with a genuine problem such items are enormously important,” he said.

Supporting Ukraine Through Purchasing Power: The Initiatives Keeping the Country’s Economy Afloat 0 171

Alice Trout

Amidst the Russian invasion, Ukrainian creatives are launching initiatives to keep the country’s economy going by harnessing consumer power. Spend With Ukraine is one such online resource that connects consumers to Ukraine-based businesses across various industries, while the Ukrainian Emergency Art Fund allows for donations to support artists. Co-founder of Spend With Ukraine, Andrey Klen, emphasizes the importance of supporting the Ukrainian economy through purchasing decisions. He states, “Armies win battles, but economies win wars.”

Ukrainian brands are still operating and many are donating a portion of their sales to different needs to support the country. To sustain interest in supporting Ukraine through spending, increasing the visibility of these initiatives is key. As Klen says, “We want it to blow out.” These efforts not only help Ukrainian creatives but also support existing industries and provide a sense of normality in these difficult times.

Ensuring Safety and Consent in the Adult Film Industry: A Vital Discussion 0 256

Alice Trout

One topic that may be of interest to readers in the adult film industry is the topic of workplace safety and consent.

The adult film industry, like any other industry, has a responsibility to ensure the safety and well-being of its workers. This includes providing a safe working environment, protecting workers from physical and emotional harm, and ensuring that all acts are consensual. However, the nature of the adult film industry can make it difficult to ensure that these standards are met. Actors and actresses may feel pressure to perform acts that they are not comfortable with, and there have been instances of abuse and exploitation in the industry.

To address these issues, it is essential for the industry to have clear guidelines and policies in place to protect the rights and safety of workers. This includes providing education and resources for performers, implementing strict consent protocols, and holding producers and directors accountable for ensuring a safe working environment.

Another important aspect of this topic is the importance of consent in adult film. Consent is a crucial aspect of any sexual encounter and must be obtained freely, enthusiastically, and without coercion. In the adult film industry, where performers are engaging in sexual acts on camera, it is especially important that consent is explicitly obtained and respected. This can be achieved through the use of consent forms and communication between performers before and during filming.

By discussing these topics, the industry can work towards creating a safer and more respectful environment for all performers and ensure that the rights and well-being of workers are protected.
