Why use adult toys?
Now that you've read this introductory guide, you probably have an idea of why you should use adult toys. But maybe you're hesitant, or need more convincing to buy one for someone else. Whatever your motivation, adult toys can not only enrich your sex life, but also improve your physical and mental health and intimacy with your partner. The "why" for using adult toys is different for everyone and changes with mood, environment and time. Regardless of gender or sexual orientation, adult toys can be a part of a healthy life, just like a balanced diet, moderate exercise and adequate sleep.
Sexual Health Benefits
Adult toys allow you to explore your needs and pleasure boundaries. Some people use them to try new stimulation, while others use them to accelerate their first orgasm, or to prolong, enhance or even have multiple orgasms. They can also help you stimulate sensitive areas that you have never discovered before, so that you can understand your body more fully.
Mental Health Benefits
In addition to sexual gains, adult toys can also enhance self-confidence and self-identity. When you are more comfortable talking to your body, "pleasure hormones" such as endorphins, dopamine and oxytocin will also be activated, allowing you to experience spiritual satisfaction and relaxation in addition to physical pleasure.

Physical Health Benefits
Using adult toys is also a workout for the pelvic floor muscles. For both men and women, strong pelvic floor muscles not only improve sexual sensitivity and orgasm quality, but also help maintain good urination and bowel control. Professionals sometimes recommend adult toys to help relieve problems such as vaginal pain, premature ejaculation, erectile dysfunction, and low libido.
Benefits for relationships
Adult toys don't have to be limited to individual use. Exploring together as a couple can enhance romance, stimulate novelty, and improve communication and trust. The key is to ensure that all participants are informed and willing. Toys can only be used as a supplement to interpersonal intimacy, not as a replacement for physical contact.
Categories of adult toys
If you're not completely convinced, take a look at the available categories to learn more about the styles that may make you excited. We have divided adult toys into five categories for beginners and advanced users:

Material of adult toys
After determining the category and purpose, you should also pay attention to the material.

Is lubricant needed?
We strongly recommend using with water-based lubricants, which can reduce friction, increase comfort and pleasure. Especially during insertion or external stimulation, it can provide a smoother experience even if there is sufficient secretion. Be sure to use water-based lubricants that are compatible with the toy material.
How to care for adult toys?
Please clean according to the instructions before and after use, and pay attention to the waterproof level of the product.
After washing, let it air dry naturally and store in a cool and dark place, away from children and pets.
For electric models, please keep them properly charged before first use and during use.
I wish you more fun and health in your journey of exploring adult toys!
