Erotic games and their benefits for sexual health

Erotic games are one of the best ways to expand horizons and keep sexual desire alive. These games are an essential component of sex, as they generate excitement and increase passion ⁽¹⁾. 

It is important to emphasize that sex games are fundamental in the intimate life of any person. These games make sex a more complete and rewarding experience for the couple. Therefore, it is essential to give them the importance they deserve and not to give them up, especially during menopause ⁽¹⁾. 

Benefits of erotic games in menopause 

One of the main benefits of erotic games during menopause is increased vaginal elasticity and sexual function. Any stimulation, whether through play or sex, can help reduce vaginal dryness and keep tissues healthy and functional by increasing blood flow. ^(2,3,4). 

In addition, erotic games provides the necessary moisture to protect the tissues and make sex more pleasurable. This prevents pain during intercourse and reduces the chance of tearing and bleeding during penetration. ⁽⁴⁾.   

Erotic games to play during menopause 

Here are some ideas for improving your sex life during menopause, many of which you're sure to find interesting! 

Use sex toys in your erotic games 

Sex toys are an interesting option to combat the different symptoms of menopause, such as vaginal dryness. G-spot in women stimulators, clitoral vibrators and toys for couples are designed to increase arousal and sexual pleasure ⁽⁵⁾.  

In addition, sex play with vibrators can help promote blood flow to the clitoris and its nerve endings. This in turn increases sensitivity and facilitates female orgasm. ⁽⁵⁾. 

Try erotic massages 

Erotic massage can be a great sexual stimulator during menopause. A slow, sensual massage and the power of touch can do wonders for the body and mind. To create a more intimate and relaxing atmosphere, you can use candles and essential massage oils ⁽⁶⁾.  

Start at the feet and work your way up, exploring every nook and cranny of your body. As well as increasing arousal, massages can also help you get to know your body and your partner's body better, discovering erogenous zones ⁽⁶⁾. 

To enhance the effects of the massage, another idea is to wear sexy lingerie that makes you feel comfortable and attractive. This way, you can enjoy the moment more and feel more self-confident during the erotic games. ⁽⁷⁾. 

Play with the blindfold in your erotic games 

The blindfold is a small but powerful accessory that can work perfectly as foreplay to increase arousal. By covering your partner's eyes, you can increase anticipation and mystery. This in turn can increase passion and sexual desire ⁽⁷⁾.  

If you don't have a blindfold, you can try using a tie or a blindfold ⁽⁷⁾. Explore this idea and have fun experimenting! 

Experiment with temperature in your erotic games 

Sex games that involve the use of different temperatures can add an exciting dimension to your sex life. These thermal sensations, whether hot or cold, can stimulate erogenous zones, increase arousal and lead to female ejaculation ⁽⁸⁾.  

You can experiment with an ice cube, a mint or a hot drink. Apply the temperature to different parts of the body and start stimulating with gentle movements to increase the sensation ⁽⁸⁾. 

Role-playing: one of the most interesting erotic games 

Role play is one of the most popular forms of erotic play and offers a wide variety of possibilities for sexual exploration as a couple. It involves creating a story with characters, behaviors and dialogue that engage the couple in a sensual atmosphere. 

One of the most common roles is that of dominant and submissive, where one partner can take control and subdue the other, using sex toys or accessories such as handcuffs or ties to intensify the experience ⁽⁸⁾.  

In this game, the submissive person surrenders to their partner's desires and enjoys the feeling of being controlled, while the dominant person can explore their partner's body with their hands, lips or sex toys ⁽⁸⁾.  

As a final tip, we recommend eating aphrodisiac foods. This will help to increase the results of the games and enjoy all the benefits of sex ⁽⁹⁾. 

It is important to be clear that for sex play to work fully, there must be a discussion with the partner and clear boundaries. Both partners need to feel safe and comfortable.  

Although it is true that every woman experiences menopause and sexuality in a different way, you should not deprive yourself of it. So, don't think twice about fully enjoying sexuality at this stage. Give yourself permission to experiment with some of these erotic games.
