Only 28-30 percent of women achieve orgasm during sex and that’s not every time. That means that 70 percent of us aren’t connecting with and enjoying our bodies. For women like entrepreneur Bonnie Gayle, orgasms weren’t happening because sex had become painful during perimenopause.
“When I was 41-years-old, perimenopause hit me hard and fast overnight. Mentally and emotionally I was at my physical prime but my body was shut down,” says Gayle who didn’t start blossoming until she was in her late 30s and felt like she was being cheated of her sexual peak.
During perimenopause and menopause, estrogen levels drop and the walls of the vagina can become thinner and increase the risk that they might tear. Itching, burning and dryness are common problems and with less lubrication, the vagina’s pH balance, which offers protection against bad bacteria and fungi, is disrupted and the risk of infections increase.
Gayle decided to be the solution to her pain — literally — and worked with a medical and herbal formulator to create Sex Butter, a lubricant that soothes and coats the vaginal walls but that also has healing properties.
“I was a little bit of a health nut and I found that all of the products to bring back the libido either had hormones or chemicals, things that they put in the antifreeze in your car,” says 48-year-old Gayle who wanted to create a product that wouldn’t burn your skin with continued use.
“Sex Butter is organic, natural and edible and we infuse it with messages to open up and heal anyone who has had verbal, mental, emotional, physical, sexual and or surgical abuse.”
Sex Butter smells like dark chocolate with a hint of mint and its main ingredients are a combination of coconut oil, cocoa oil, shea butter, jojoba and grape seed plus an ingredient Gayle calls the “secret sauce”. What’s cool though is that the formulation goes through more than one quantum physics process during mixing. These energy processes are meant to change the molecular structure and enhance the potency of the ingredients in a positive way.
Gayle says that orgasms are deeper and more intense with sex butter (we agree!) and that it’s helping to build her vaginal lining. Because the product stays in your body after use, it’s a buffer against the acidity of your partner’s semen and will keep your pH balance, drawing yeast out when necessary. Gayle says that although Sex Butter can’t cure an STD virus, it may heal an open sore because the secret sauce is anti-fungal and anti-bacterial.
Use Sex Butter on your own, with toys or with your partner. If you’re physically or emotionally shut down when it comes to sex and it’s been ages since you’ve had an orgasm, it can help you to reconnect with your body: pain free.
