Many factors contribute to the success of your sex life. However, a woman will never know how good she is in bed unless she take her clothes off. Hence, her physical appearance and hygiene plays an important role on whether she will be happy that night. Aside from this, there is one factor that could give your sex life a boost – pheromones.
Before you try them, it is important to learn more about pheromones, such as what they do, how they do it, and how to use them to give your sex life a fighting chance.
The 4 Types Of Pheromones
By definition, a pheromone is a type of chemical which animal produce that could cause changes in the behavior of another animal, as long as it is of the same species. It triggers different type of behaviors such as alarm, to respect territory, follow a food trail, or for sexual arousal among others.
Pheromones were first discovered in 1953. The experts found out that female moths secrete a type of chemical scent that attracts male moths.
Mammals have vomeronasal organ or VNO that enables them to detect pheromones and cause them to behave in such manner. Since then, experts became curious if humans have it, too.
There will be an ongoing debate whether humans have pheromones or not. However, most experts think that humans are capable of emitting a certain scent that could subliminally affect the way they react, given the situation. Medial experts agree that there are the following four types of pheromones:
1. Releasers– This type promotes sexual attraction because of its ability to elicit an immediate response.
2. Primers– This pheromone alters the hormone levels and helps influence the reproductive physiology or development.
3. Signalers– A type of pheromone that provides information and gives out a genetic odor print.
4. Modulators– This type can synchronize or alter bodily functions.
Given this information, the question now is, could pheromones become the key to the success of your life in bed? To guide you better, here are nine tips you need to remember when using pheromones and eventually spice up your sex life.
1. Don’t Underestimate The Power Of The Nose
Do humans have pheromones? This is one of the many questions experts hope to address. The vomeronasal organ or VNO is the primary organ responsible for eliciting a response from animals.
Humans have it too, which is behind each of your nostrils; however, the VNO doesn’t operate on a regular basis and the genes for its receptors are not always present. Still, this doesn’t mean humans can’t pick up pheromones.
According to various studies, the nose and the rest of the olfactory system is responsible for picking up scents and creating a response out of it. The human nose has terminal nerve that runs directly into the brain and works as a pathway for sex hormones to take effect.
There are few good studies that discuss the pheromones as a sexual attractant. Still, there’s no harm in having an open mind and trying pheromones for yourself.
2. Apply It On Your Clothes, Not Your Skin
One of the biggest questions on pheromone use is where to apply it. Skin and clothing pheromone applications are effective in their own way. If you want the best results, then make sure to apply it on your clothing. It doesn’t stain, it won’t be easily washed away by your sweat and it prevents pheromone buildup. More importantly, it lasts longer than the skin application.
That’s not all. There are people who have active bacteria on their skin. If your skin’s biochemical makeup makes any perfume or cologne less effective, then expect that pheromone application will have the same effect.
3. Check The Pheromone Concentration
According to research, pheromone concentration should be at least 0.015 percent or more in order to make it more effective.
The success of pheromones and eventually your sex life does not rely on how much you wear. Don’t be fooled by those advertisements that tell you the more you use, the more effective it will be.
The truth is, it’s all about the pheromone concentration. Otherwise, you will be wasting your money on something that won’t work. At the same time, the more you wear them, the less effective pheromones will be.
Therefore, make it a habit to check the label. If your chosen pheromone cologne does not have at least 0.015 percent pheromone concentration, then move on to the next one.
4. Start Small
[adsanity id=”49837″ align=”aligncenter” /]Your excited self will tell you to spray pheromone on all parts of your body. However, pheromone experts believe that it’s not about the quantity, but the quality of the pheromone product. Therefore, start with small amounts and gradually work your way up. Wait it out for at least two weeks before throwing it in the bin.
If you don’t see any changes, check if you are doing it wrong, or if you missed a step in the instructions. Don’t jump immediately to conclusions. The effects of pheromones vary from person to person and may not happen instantly all the time. If nothing has happened, arrange a request for a refund to get your money back.
5. Know The Right Places
The application points in your body are crucial. If you want pheromones to work and eventually give your sex life a boost, you need to know where to apply them. Here are the body parts where pheromones respond the best:
- Left, right and backside of the neck.
- The underside of the wrists. This is effective for social pheromones.
- The chest area.
- Behind the ears, which will be useful if you are out at a club or any other situation where close communication is required.
- Hair, also for social pheromones.
- Back of your knees.
- The stomach area, just below the navel. This will be useful, especially when you are getting some action.
6. Choose The Right Pheromones
There are different types of pheromones that draw out different responses. Androstenone increases sexual desire in women and makes you more attractive. Androsterone makes your look more masculine, while androstenol makes you look more approachable. Therefore, it is important that you choose the right pheromone for the kind of response you are aiming for.
There are many pheromone mixtures tailored to create specific reactions. At the same time, every situation calls for a specific response from women. Make sure to do your research and check the mixture first before buying anything. This way, you are sure that the chosen pheromone will work for you.
7. Watch Out For Pheromone Buildup
This means it could change the effects of the pheromones and make them less responsive and less effective.
How will you know if there is a pheromone buildup? Pheromone buildup elicits a good response at first and later on you’ll notice a drop in its effectiveness. This could also happen if you apply pheromones constantly, but don’t see any results and the days you forgot to use them, there are better reactions.
8. Look Friendly
Despite the conflicting views about pheromones, the truth is, they can help you spice up your sex life. Assuming you found the right product for you, women will find their way into your arms. However, always keep this in mind: don’t rely too much on pheromones and scents in general. No matter how effective pheromones are, if you don’t look safe and friendly enough, you won’t enjoy the benefits.
Therefore, make sure to present yourself well. Take a bath, brush your teeth, dress nicely and look clean. Aside from the physical side, women will come to you if you look safe, nice, friendly and approachable. Hanging out in the bar with a glass of scotch in your hand and looking cocky won’t seal the deal. Women will appreciate it more if you act nicely, just like a perfect gentleman.
9. Keep Your Expectations Realistic
You will find commercials and “customer testimonials” of men showing that hundreds of women tearing their clothes as soon as they got a whiff of their pheromones. That is not true.
Keep in mind that these are all publicity tactics to entice you to buy. Apparently, that’s not how it works in real life and you should know that.
Therefore, keep your expectations realistic. It takes 10 to 15 minutes for the pheromone-hormone-response axis to work, and there is no assurance it will result to a sexual response. Some people are even unaffected by pheromones. However, the longer you stay with someone, the better the effects will be. Still, be realistic when it comes to your expectations.
At the end of the day, use pheromone products that attract women. At the same time, make sure that your chosen pheromone will emphasize your masculinity, friendliness and approachability. However, don’t rely too much on pheromones. You are merely one-step ahead of the game. It’s up to you now on how you want to capitalize on it.
