You’ve always recognized the special value your vibrator brought to your life — now research confirms those benefits. According to a new study, women who use vibrators experience more positive sexual function in terms of desire, arousal, lubrication, and orgasm. The Internet-based survey was completed by 2,056 women aged 18-60. Over half (52.5%) of the respondents reported that they used vibrators either alone or with a partner. The study indicated that vibrator use was also associated with health-promoting behaviors: vibrator users were significantly more likely to have had a gynecological exam in the previous year and to have looked closely at their genitals in the previous month. Vibrator use was rarely associated with side effects. A companion study among 18-60-year-old men indicated that 45% of men also use vibrators. Journal of Sexual Medicine, June 2009
