US Contraceptives Market – Current landscape
In the US, the contraceptives space holds more importance than ever. The market has reflected this and has seen steady growth over the last five years to 2023. This growth will continue and the market is expected to reach $2.6 billion in 2028.
As the stigma around contraception continues to decrease, maintaining momentum in the market will depend on brands’ ability to shift as pleasure continues to drive purchases.
US Sexual Wellness Trends – What you need to know
Pleasure is top of mind
For the first time, sexual enhancement products have higher usage than contraceptives. As sexual health through pleasure continues to become destigmatized, interest in sexual enhancement products will continue to grow. Brands will need to respond for this by providing products that go beyond basic functionality.
Sexual wellness as self-care
Women are interested in self-care through sexual wellness. As the lines between the two blur, more will view sexual health as a part of holistic well-being.
Brands can encourage more exploration in the category by increasing the number of conversations taking place about the topic to normalise behaviours and products further.
