Growing awareness regarding sexual health items is one of the primary factors boosting the growth of the global sexual wellness market share. Sexual health wellness items include sex toys, condoms and contraceptives, attractive lingerie, individual ointments, and others, such as sex diversions, sexual enhancement supplements, testing cards, pregnancy testing units, and vaginal sexual wellness items, which ensure the safety and enjoyment of sexual experiences. In addition to that, the changing attitude towards sexual health is another factor fueling the sexual wellness market demand. Intimate and personal care products are quickly emerging to be the next huge opportunity as attitudes toward sex and sexual health shift. The transformation of self-care products from a luxury to a requirement has been critical to the market's emergence of sexual wellness products. Items falling under this umbrella blend enjoyment with wellbeing, catering to personal care, masturbation, and menstruation, and are not limited to toys and lubricants. Similarly, female sexual wellness is a huge business opportunity for retailers.

However, openly debating sex and sexual well-being as well as the use of sex toys and other sexual items is still considered taboo in many countries. In addition, the use of condoms can trigger latex allergy among some individuals. Also, a dry lubricant that is used on the surface of latex condoms could cause ovarian cancer as well as fibrosis in fallopian tubes, thereby making women infertile. Furthermore, an increase in government initiatives and sex education programs are considered to be creating numerous growth opportunities for the market throughout the forecasted years. For example, masturbation was recommended by the NYC Health Department as the safest form of sexual activity to minimize contact with others and the spread of COVID-19.
