Sex is often discussed in terms of pleasure, intimacy, or relationships. But what tends to be overlooked is its role in physical and mental health. It's one of those natural activities that feels good, yet also does good. The body...

It’s one of those curious things that seems to happen without rhyme or reason, you wake up, maybe still half-asleep, and there it is an erection. Whether you call it morning wood or, more colourfully, morning glory, it’s a part...

It’s fascinating how something as small and seemingly simple as a condom can carry such complexity. Not just in purpose, but in design, feel, and even the emotional reactions people have to them. For many, they’re just a matter of...

“Oh, wait! I need to clean my sex toy” is 9 times out of 10 not what you’re thinking when you’re basking in that post-climax bliss. In fact, we’d say that’s never what you’re thinking, are we right? However, this...

At some point, probably while lying breathless next to someone or scrolling through health articles, most people have wondered: Does sex actually count as exercise? And if it does... how many calories are we talking about? It's a tempting idea,...

Life doesn’t always give us the luxury of planning ahead. Sometimes events unfold in ways that leave us with questions and, in certain situations, a very real sense of urgency. Picture it: an unplanned sexual encounter without protection, a slip-up...

It’s not the kind of thing people usually bring up in casual conversation. And yet, Bacterial Vaginosis (BV) is surprisingly common. That awkward, fishy-smelling discharge you weren’t expecting? The one you weren’t sure was even worth Googling? For many, that’s...
