What is cyprine: this female secretion better known as “wetness”?

“What is cyprine?” is one of the questions we get quite often at Puissante. This word, at once poetic, a bit scientific , and somewhat mysterious, is one of those terms we never use out loud... but that we all experience, in private. 👀

So what exactly is cyprine? What is it used for? How does it work? We'll tell you everything below!

Cyprine: definition, origin, role

Also called “wet” in everyday language ( vaginal lubrication in a more intense version), cyprine is a feminine secretion that is as fascinating as it is little known.

The word “cyprine” originates from the Greek goddess of love, Aphrodite, also called “Cypris”.
Just that. 😌

Biologically, cyprine refers to the vaginal secretion (or fluid) produced by a woman's body when it is stimulated, aroused , or ready for sexual intercourse. It is an intimate, fluid, natural secretion that lines the walls of the vagina and provides effective lubrication. 👌

It is produced mainly by the Bartholin glands, located at the entrance to the vagina, but also by the vestibular glands and vaginal mucous membranes.

It's not "dirty." It's simply a sign of a body expressing itself! Far from being a simple "signal of desire," cyprine plays a crucial role in protection and intimate balance. 🌸

What is the composition of cyprine?

Cyprine is a complex bodily fluid, composed mainly of water, proteins, amino acids, cells, enzymes and electrolytes. It sometimes contains a trace of cervical mucus, depending on the phase of the menstrual cycle , but also basic vaginal fluid, which maintains the pH of the intimate flora. 💦

Its smell and taste can vary slightly from one woman to another, but they are generally subtle, mild, or even imperceptible.
Cyprine can have a light, slightly musky odor, similar to that of the body. Its taste is often neutral, very subtle. These characteristics vary depending on:

• food (spicy, sweet dishes, garlic or alcohol influence the smell)

• vaginal pH

• sweating

• the hydration level

• intimate hygiene

• hormones

• the time of the female cycle
  
  

Tip: Drinking enough water, avoiding harsh soaps, and wearing cotton underwear can help maintain healthy cyprine. 🚰
Never try to change the taste or smell with "miracle" products: this is the best way to unbalance your vaginal flora, causing possible infections or reactions. Cyprine is natural, there is nothing to change or modify.

What is cyprine used for?

Cyprine has multiple essential functions:

• Lubricate the vagina to facilitate sexual intercourse and reduce pain or irritation

• Protect the vaginal mucous membranes against friction, infections or inflammation

• Promote sexual pleasure through a natural and pleasant sliding sensation

• Prevent vaginal dryness by moisturizing tissues and stimulating arousal

• Promote reproduction by facilitating the penetration and progression of spermatozoa

Cyprine is therefore much more than a pleasure fluid. It is an ally of health, comfort and balance. 🙏

Cyprine and sexual arousal: how does it work?

The production of cyprine is triggered by sexual arousal : this can be a physical stimulus (touch, caresses), mental (erotic thought, memory, fantasy), or emotional (connection with a person, feeling of security, etc.).

This phase of excitement activates the parasympathetic system, causing vasodilation in the clitoris and vagina, and activation of the glands that secrete the famous cyprine. ⚙️

Production time varies from woman to woman. Some secrete quickly, while others need more time, calm, or confidence. There is no “right” or “wrong” answer: the body follows its own tempo.

On average, it is said that it takes a woman about 5 seconds to lubricate before menopause versus 5 minutes for a post-menopausal woman . ⌛️
Proof of this is that the production of cyprine is, even before the level of excitement, mainly linked to hormones!

So, we want to clear up one of the biggest misconceptions about intimacy today: not getting wet doesn't mean not being aroused. The excitement may be there, but the body's response may be absent. 😉

This says nothing about:

• your level of excitement

• your femininity

• your “normality”

• your health

• your desire

• your desirability

Do all women produce cyprine?

Yes, in theory, all women secrete cyprine. But the quantity and quality can vary enormously depending on:

• of the menstrual cycle (more secretions around ovulation)
  

• age (lubrication may decrease with menopause)
  

• contraception ( some IUDs or hormonal pills dry out the mucous membrane)
  

• stress, fatigue, hydration
  

• from a hormonal disorder or medical treatment
  
  

Remember: having little cyprine doesn't mean you're not aroused. Lubrication is one indicator among others, not an absolute barometer of desire. 🫶

Cyprine and vaginal dryness: when to worry?

Vaginal dryness refers to a general condition (not just during intercourse). It is a low level of hydration in the vaginal tissues. 🪾
Vaginal dryness can have several causes: menopause, postpartum, contraception, medical treatments, chronic stress, etc.
In addition to general and established dryness, it can lead to a loss of lubrication and therefore discomfort during intercourse (burning sensations, unpleasant friction, pain, etc.). 🌵

If you experience persistent discomfort, pain, or abnormal discharge, it is essential to consult a healthcare professional (midwife, gynecologist, or general practitioner). The information in this article is not a substitute for medical advice. If symptoms persist, make an appointment. 💬

Is cyprine the same as squirting or female ejaculation?

No, producing cyprine is not the same as squirting or female ejaculation !

• Cyprine is a continuous secretion, produced during arousal, unrelated to orgasm.
  

• The squirt or fountain emission is an expulsion of clear and abundant liquid, during specific stimulations (G-spot, para-urethral area), which may or may not occur at the time of orgasm.
  

• Female ejaculation is a more discreet phenomenon, linked to the Skene glands, which produce a thicker and more viscous liquid, similar to male ejaculate.
  
  

In short? Cyprine ≠ squirt ≠ female ejaculation. But they all coexist in the same incredible body: yours. ✨

How to stimulate cyprine production?

Want to support your natural lubrication levels? Here are some tips:

• Stay well hydrated (1.5 to 2 L of water per day)

• Choose a contraceptive that doesn't disrupt your hormones too much. We know... easier said than done!

• Adopt gentle, fragrance-free, pH-neutral intimate care

• Avoid douching, which unbalances the flora

• Take your time during foreplay (Cyprina likes it slow)

• Practice breathing, relaxation and connection to yourself

• Use with a daily intimate moisturizer like Puissante Intimate Balm

• Use a natural, water-based lubricant during intercourse, such as Puissante Intimate Gel

• Give your body a boost with a dietary supplement that helps support natural lubrication , such as Powerful Libido Cure , Formulated to promote smooth lubrication and renewed desire, made in France and designed by women!

Conclusion: cyprine, this little-known ally

Cyprine is living proof that your body is functioning and responding. This intimate fluid, often misunderstood, misnamed, or misunderstood, deserves to be recognized for what it is: an indicator of health, desire, and balance. ✅

On the other hand, it is important not to focus too much on it: a lack of natural lubrication is also normal and does not mean that there is a malfunction.

We've all heard an awkward remark, a lame joke, or a shifty glance at some point... And yet, there's nothing to hide.
