VAGINAL TIGHTENING CREAMS EXPOSED

Do you think your vagina isn’t quite as tight as it ‘should’ be? Have you ever thought of using a vaginal tightening cream to ‘firm’ things up?  Well we’re going to take a minute to tell you about some of the stuff that’s in those creams, and why not to bother.  There are lots of companies out there that will spends tons of advertising dollars to let you think that too much sex may stretch you out, or how childbirth can irreparably change your vagina forever.  Generally the marketing spin that has spawned products like vaginal tightening creams can be attributed to a lack of knowledge, or misinformation around the topic of vaginas in general.

These fear-based products feed on women’s insecurities around their own sexual self-image.  Often they are similar in thought design to breast enhancing creams, or penis enlargement cures.  These concoctions will at best swindle you out of some of your hard earned money, and at worst cause an allergic reaction or give you an infection.  Here’s a fact, vaginas are muscles meant to expand and contract.  Just like any other muscle in your body the best thing you can do for it’s overall health and wellbeing is to exercise it either through kegels, or sex itself.

In terms of some of the ingredients that go into these creams it could be as basic as Aloe Vera or as dangerous as aluminum.  Some of these creams even contain numbing agents that lower your sensitivity, the concept being that if your vagina isn’t stimulated enough it will not fully engorge to its normal size, nor will it lubricate itself as much.  With less lube comes more friction giving a feeling of tightness around the penis.  What you’re also getting is a mask over any pain your body may be experiencing, and an increased risk of minor tearing and possible infections.  Generally any numbing cream during sex is a bad idea, due to the fact that your pain receptors are there for a reason, and if you can’t feel damage being done in the moment, you’ll surely feel it later.  Some of the worst vaginal tightening creams contain aluminum, which has links to Alzheimer’s.  Use of these can cause inflammation and dryness giving a tighter feel for the penis, but a rather unsexy possibly painful feeling for the vagina.

If you really are suffering from issues like incontinence, or the effects of childbirth our best advice to you is don’t buy into a magic cream that is going to make everything better, because it won’t.  Go and have a visit with your doctor, do a little homework and get to know yourself inside and out.  Not only will you have a few more dollars in your pocket at the end of the day, but your vagina will thank you as well.
