Jan. 13, 2006 -- Caffeine may put females in the mood for sex, a new study shows.

In the study, female rats that got their first shot of caffeine before mating were quicker than uncaffeinated females to scurry back to a male rat after sex.

The caffeinated females weren't just looking for company. "It looks as if they wanted to have sex again," researcher Fay Guarraci, PhD, tells WebMD.

Might caffeine also rev up women's sex lives? Maybe, but it's too early to say, says Guarraci, an assistant professor of psychology at Southwestern University in Georgetown, Texas.

The study, titled "Coffee, Tea, and Me," is due to appear in an upcoming issue of Pharmacology, Biochemistry, and Behavior.

So that's what keeps you so frisky, Caroline! lol

I never realized the effect that caffeine can have on your body until I researched this subject...This is less than 24 hours ago....Nothing that I have read would have hindered me in anyway with our using this...Me and millions of other people...It would still be, full steam ahead ...I have now read that Diet Pepsi came out in 1976...This was when we started...I find it interesting that I sailed through Menopause...Could this have been the added stimulant that I needed during this time?...Never had hot flashes nor all the other stresses of women...Without knowing of this added zest for life, I may have helped myself at this time in my life...What blows my mind is that is about the time that the more active sexual woman started to show her face...This I do find interesting...

We have used this for so many years that it is part of our daily life...I have been trying to keep track of the amount of Diet Soda that we take in daily....I would say at least 60 ounces and many times 72...I was made aware of the effect that Dopamine can have on your brain and sexuality, about three years ago...I really had not progressed that much in knowledge of the sexuality of a person to put any creditability in their words..I was too busy trying to find out who I was...This was at another site where I was just trying to fill in the blanks in life to know what was happening to me..This is all documented on that site....All of the sudden I had ejaculated...A new person had been born and with this explosion of my sexual self came the knowledge of life that I had never known before...

What I speak about is not to talk other women/men into drinking this soda...Nor will I speak of the good or the bad of this way of life...I only know one thing...First I do not drink....Oh, maybe a bottle of beer every two months...Don't like sugar, am low carb's and my mind is more active that it has ever been in my life...Sexually, I have no age...Since I have the capability of turning my husband around and off Viagra, he has now joined me in this game called life...Saying this, my want is far superior to his...However, I believe that this is the story of the sexual woman....I am not trying to impress anyone with this, just maybe someone may find a hint of some sort of medication in these words that I have spoken to help them....

One more thing....I could quit it just like that...but I won't....I live in a place that I love...
