WOMEN are more likely to have an orgasm if they blow their nose before sex, experts say.

Those with the sharpest sense of smell were up to six times more likely to climax, according to a study.

Researchers say they are more sensitive to body odours and hormones which trigger arousal.

Being bunged up can hinder a woman’s chances of an orgasm so experts recommend blowing their hooter beforehand.

Psychotherapist Phillip Hodson said: “The findings suggest having a head cold and blocked nose may make arousal more difficult. Clearing the nose may be a useful strategy.

“I know from my own sex therapy practice that you can improve sexual response among healthy women and men by getting them to consciously smell their partners.”

Scientists from the Technical University Dresden in Germany asked 70 young adults to rank their sex lives as well as their sense of smell.

Just one in seven women with the poorest conks tended to climax during sex, compared to six out of seven with the most powerful hooters.

Researcher Johanna Bendas said: “A high smell sensitivity was associated with reports of a more pleasant sexual experience as well as high frequency of orgasms in women.”
