what alcohol makes you last longer in bed - #22911
I am kinda in a weird spot right now. Last weekend I went to this party, right? Had a great time, but I noticed something strange. I had a couple of drinks, and somehow I ended up being way more... well, you know... confident and lasted longer in bed with my partner than I usually do. I'm not saying I was drunk or anything, but I felt relaxed and really into it. Now, I'm trying to figure out what alcohol makes you last longer in bed because that was honestly a game changer. Is it just the relaxation factor, or does specific alcohol really help with stamina? Like, does whiskey do better than beer, or vice versa? Also, I heard that certain mixers can really swing the mood or the results, not sure how true that is. I can’t go around drinking every kind just to experiment, and I feel like I need some solid advice here. Any suggestions? Would love to know if there's any alcohol to avoid too, like something that might just mess everything up the next time. What alcohol makes you last longer in bed anyway? Guess I’m looking for some kind of magic potion but more realistic!

Doctors' responses
Alcohol itself doesn’t directly impact your ability to last longer in bed from a physiological standpoint. The effects you noticed might mostly stem from how alcohol can alter mood and perception, which adds to a sense of relaxation. This relaxation might help reduce anxiety or stress, but also, there’s no solid evidence to suggest that one type of alcohol inherently improves stamina or performance in bed over another. While some people believe that certain drinks may boost sexual performance, this belief isn’t medically substantiated. Different types of alcohol (like whiskey vs. beer) don’t have unique ingredients that enhance physical intimacy—it’s more the alcohol content that affects your system.
In moderation, alcohol can help lower inhibitions, which might make you feel more at ease. However, drinking in excess may impair sexual performance. Too much alcohol can lead to a condition sometimes called “whiskey dick,” where sexual performance is actually reduced due to impaired physiological functions. If there’s a “magic potion,” it’s finding the right balance that keeps you relaxed without overdoing it. As far as mixers or specific additives go, there’s no real evidence to suggest they modulate performance, though sugar-heavy mixers might lead to a crash later on, which can affect stamina indirectly.
If your primary concern is performance anxiety, you might look into stress-reduction techniques or open communication with your partner, which can also enhance confidence and intimacy. And remember, relying on substances may not be a sustainable way to manage such issues if they persist. Ultimately, being mindful of your alcohol consumption is key to maintaining not just sexual health, but overall well-being. If you’re looking for more personalized advice, it would be a good idea to discuss it further with a healthcare provider who can offer guidance tailored to your specific situation.
