    Sex in Check Episode 16 - Sex & Performance Myths Worth Busting

    “Let’s be honest—most of us learned about sex from a pretty unreliable collection of sources. Maybe it was friends, magazines, movies, pornography, social media, or that one person who always seemed to have an answer for everything. And somewhere along the way, we picked up a whole lot of beliefs about what’s normal, what’s attractive, how our bodies are supposed to work, and what a healthy sex life is supposed to look like. But how much of what we’ve been told is actually true? Today on Sex In Check, we’re going to separate sexual fact from fiction and bust some of the most persistent myths about men, women, desire, performance, pleasure, aging, and relationships—because when it comes to sex, believing the wrong thing can sometimes affect our confidence, our relationships, and even our sexual health.” “And because we're all about real solutions—not just busting myths—we'll also share some products that can help you put better sexual wellness into practice. We'll cover everything from condoms, non-latex protection and lubricants to pelvic-floor trainers, couples and solo toys, app-controlled products, and options for men dealing with erection or performance concerns. These aren't magic fixes, but they can be useful tools for comfort, pleasure, communication and exploration. And of course, we'll remind you when a sexual concern may be worth talking about with your healthcare provider. You can find the products we discuss at Condom-USA, your resource for safer sex and sexual wellness.” Products mentioned in this episode include: Sliquid Water Based Organics Lubricant Sliquid Silk Liquid Silk Hybrid Lubricants Arousal Serums Polyurethane Condoms Wicked Simply Timeless Hybrid Lubricant On Arousal Serum Oil Based Lubricants Sex Furniture Fifty Shades Inner Goddess Silver Balls Clitoral Toys Bigger Ox C**k Ring Vibrating C**k Rings Hollow Strap On Vac U Lock Unisex Harness Performance VX6 Vacuum Penis Pump Perfect Fit Penis Sleeves Perfect Fit Fat Boy 5.5 inch Perfect Fit  6.5 inch Perfect Fit 7 inch Condom-USA, America's Safer Sex Store – C-USA

    Sex in Check Episode 15 - Let's talk about Oral Sex

    In this episode of Sex in Check we discuss a topic everyone is interested in, but no one wants to talk about. Why is it so hard to talk about oral sex? Communication is key to a healthy and satisfying sex life but so many of us have insecurities about our bodies or our knowledge regarding oral sex. The truth is we all have insecurities, the best place to discuss these are outside the bedroom.  We discuss the importance of good hygiene, comfortable settings, enthusiasm and feeling desired, as well as protection. And what are the best techniques for pleasing our partners and why use flavored condoms, flavored water-based lubricants, ultra-thin condoms and dental dams. These products were invented to make oral sex more fun, safer and easier to talk about. Communication, reassurance, talking openly, respecting boundaries builds trust and leads to better intimacy.

    Sex in Check Episode 14 - What if your low libido, weaker erections, or changes in sexual performance aren't because you're getting older? What if the answer is sitting in your medicine cabinet?

    In this episode of Sex in Check, we will be discussing how medications can affect our sexual wellness.  Many people assume sexual changes are caused by aging, menopause, stress, or relationship problems. While those can certainly play a role, prescription and over-the-counter medications are often overlooked. Medications work by changing hormones, blood flow, nerve signals, or brain chemistry—all of which are essential for healthy sexual function. The good news is that recognizing the connection is the first step toward finding solutions. In this episode we will give you the solutions and recommendations to connect with your partner. Whether you're managing depression, allergies, high blood pressure, menopause, or chronic pain, there are often ways to improve intimacy while continuing to care for your overall health.  And if dryness, reduced sensation, or discomfort are part of the picture, simple solutions like quality lubricants, massage oils, couples' toys, ultra-thin condoms, or body-safe intimacy products can make a meaningful difference.   "If today's episode helped you connect the dots between your medications and your sex life, remember that you don't have to navigate these changes alone. Visit Condom-USA.com for physician-recommended lubricants, ultra-thin condoms, couples' intimacy products, and educational resources designed to support every stage of your sexual wellness journey. Because taking care of your health shouldn't mean giving up a satisfying sex life."  Featured Products Mentioned in This Episode Jelly C**k Ring Assortment Silicone C**k Ring Assortment Lasso C**k Ring Donut C**k Ring Helix C**k Ring Double Stacked C**k Ring Beaded C**k Rings Oxballs Ringer Oxballs Squeeze Vedo Roq Rechargeable C**k Ring We Vibe Bond We Vibe Pivot We Vibe Verge We Vibe Jive We Vibe Chorus Satisfyer Double Joy Balldo For more information on how to connect with your partner, visit our Blog for information like Sex Toys for Couples or Health Factors that can affect a Woman's Health.
