Sex Talk with Blackburn Drug

Is sex painful?
Is sex difficult?

Dr. Charlie and Blackburn Drug can help!

“The problem isn’t the desire itself, it’s the context. You need more sexually relevant stimuli activating the accelerator and fewer things hitting the brake.” 

― Emily Nagoski

If you read our blog post about Emily Nagoski’s book, Come as You Are: The Surprising New Science that Will Transform Your Sex Life, you know that we at All Ages Osteopathy loved the way Nagoski makes the modern science of sex easy to understand and fun to read because of her masterful analogies. If learning about and improving the psychological aspects of sex and sexual health aren’t your focus, Dr. Charlie and Blackburn Drug can assist with the physical limitations such as personalized creams and nasal sprays to prepare the body for sex.

Women’s Health:

  • If sex isn’t appealing because of stress or other inhibitors, ask Dr. Charlie about Blackburn Drug’s Sildenafil 1% Oil. Sildenafil is the generic version of Viagra so Blackburn Drug’s Sildenafil 1% Oil is essentially Viagra for women, applied to the clitoral skin 30 minutes for intercourse. This is a popular item!

  • If sex is painful from dryness, ask Dr. Charlie about Blackburn Drug’s Estriol Suppositories. Blackburn offers several different kinds of suppositories inserted vaginally twice a week at bedtime to ease menopause symptoms such as internal dryness or external dryness that cause discomfort during sex.

  • If sex is painful from muscle spasms, ask Dr. Charlie about Blackburn Drugs Vaginal Pain Cream. It’s an anti-neuropathic muscle relaxer and lubricant that you apply 30 minutes before sex or every 8 hours as needed for pain. No matter your age, sex does not need to hurt and there are resources available locally.

  • If sex is painful from vaginismus, the narrowing of the vagina from muscle spasms or lack of sex, ask Dr. Charlie about Blackburn Drug’s 4-piece dilator kit and lidocaine 10% ointment. The ointment has no harmful preservatives and can be administered digitally or with an applicator. (Depending on the case, this might be a situation suited for Pelvic Floor Therapy.)

Men’s Health:

  • If sex is difficult from impotence, the inability to get or maintain an erection, ask Dr. Charlie about Blackburn Drug’s Sildenafil (Viagra) Immediate Release 100MG Troches or Tadalafil (Cialis) Immediate Release 20 MG Troches. A troche is small, medicated lozenge that dissolves under the tongue and these troches can be taken 1 hour prior to sexual activity as needed.

  • Blackburn Drug also makes Sildenafil 1% Cream and Tadalafil 1% Cream to increase the penis size from the erections encouraged by the troches above. These creams can be applied topically to the penis 30 minutes prior to sexual activity.

The Love Drug

One other important and exciting offering from Blackburn Drug is Oxytocin Nasal Spray 5U/ACTUATION. Oxytocin is nicknamed the ‘love drug,’ because it’s a hormone that increases happiness and decreases stress. Hugging, kissing, cuddling and sex all trigger oxytocin production. If you feel you’re lacking oxytocin, Blackburn Drug’s Oxytocin Nasal Spray can stimulate the same feelings which encourage intimacy with your partner or with yourself. The nasal spray can be used up to 3 times per day as needed.

*Every compound highlight above requires a prescription.

We are so lucky to have a compound pharmacist like James Blackburn in Teton County. If you haven’t visited Blackburn Drug yet, stop by next time you visit Eclectic Consignment or Creekside Market on North Cache Street. Blackburn Drug is Jackson Hole’s compounding pharmacy specializing in customized medications and curated clean beauty products.

“Remind yourself that the day you were born, your body was a cause for celebration, for love without condition, and that’s just as true today as it was then.”
