Are you always complaining that your sex life is running out of steam? Well, what’s stopping you from getting adventurous and innovative? Charge up your sex life using this list of the 10 craziest places to fool around...or you could get inspired and think of a few of your own!

Getting pregnant maybe the easiest of all things, however, some couples do find it hard to conceive for several reasons, including weak or insufficient sperm count.

In some cases, as when nature needs a boost, a little push from you and your partner can go a long way in getting pregnant. When it comes to the best position to get pregnant, the general rule is that the male sperm must be deposited as near to the female cervix as possible.

This has something to do with the life spans of the female egg and the male sperm. Once an egg is released from the ovary – a stage also known as ovulation – it begins its path down the fallopian tube to the uterus. A released egg typically survives for only 24 hours, while a sperm can last anywhere from three to five days in the female body. As such, the egg has to be as close to the egg as possible so they can meet and join before the egg dies.

While not a lot of people will agree that the sexual positions have anything to do with getting pregnant, the logical inference is that it makes sense to assume the position that can help the sperm meet the egg in the shortest possible time.

This is especially true when for couples who have problems or difficulty conceiving. Having said this, the first "best position to get pregnant" tip is to avoid positions that least expose the cervix to the male sperm, and that generally defy gravity such as sex while standing up, sitting down, or with the woman on top. When trying to conceive, it is best to limit the amount of sperm that flows back out of the vagina.

The woman's hips should also be positioned in such a way that the sperm released is kept inside, giving it enough time to swim up to the female cervix.

Consider the following positions instead:

1. The missionary position. Or man-on-top is said to be the position that's best for getting pregnant. This is because this particular position allows for the deepest possible penetration, making it possible for the sperm to get deposited closest to the cervix.

2. Raise the hips. Elevating the hips, which can be done by placing a pillow behind her, can also be helpful because this exposes the female cervix to as much semen as the male can release.

3. Doggy-style. The rear-entry position where the man enters the woman from behind is also a recommended position. In this position, sperm is also deposited closest to the cervix, thereby helping increase the chances of conception.

4. Side-by-side. You can also try having intercourse while lying side by side. This position likewise causes the most exposure of the cervix to the male sperm.

5. Orgasms. Finally, while this has nothing to do with sexual positions, there are also researches that suggest the importance of the female orgasm in conceiving. According to studies, female orgasm leads to contractions that could push sperm up into the cervix. The lesson: have fun while trying to conceive.

Inspired by the sexual success of these ancient love teachings, here is the scorching list of the hottest sex positions to tempt, tease, then thoroughly please your lucky guy!

Grab your guy and get ready for a trip toward erotic enlightenment.

Baithe baithe
Your partner slouches down in a comfy but sturdy chair, his legs slightly spread. You straddle his lap as you face him, your knees bent and open against his chest, your feet braced against the seat of the chair. While your guy grips your hips, thighs, or butt, you clutch the back of the chair and begin moving up and down along his shaft.
You will love it: It's a traditional girl-on-top with a tempting twist. With your knees bent and your hands and feet using the chair as a springboard, it's the bounciest nooky style ever – perfect for teasing your guy with fast up-and-down action, then shifting gears and going for wide circular motions. Plus, your bodies are close enough for the intimacy of kissing, touching, or just giving each other incredibly lusty looks.

Kamaal ka yoga
Help your partner get comfortable in the traditional lotus position, with his legs crossed and each of his heels atop the opposite knee. Facing him, sit in his lap and mount him, with your legs wrapped snugly around his waist. Embrace each other and lock lips with a shared breath, so that as you exhale your guy inhales and vice versa. As you breathe in, rock your pelvis back and tighten your vaginal muscles. As you exhale, rock your pelvis forward and release. Your guy should mirror your movements.
You will love it: Yoga fanatics, this one couldn’t be more perfect for you. Syncing up your breathing and moving together while in this position will deepen your intimacy as you both ride the wave to a mind-blowing climax.

Ek chakra
You and your partner lie on your sides facing the same direction. First, you lower your crotch onto his, wrapping your legs around either side of his torso. Your arms should be stretched out behind you supporting your weight. He then encircles your waist with his legs and grips your upper thighs and thrusts gently.
You will love it: Like most side-by-side sex positions, this one promises ecstasy. By concentrating on your outer banks, your guy can tease the turbo-charged nerve endings in the first third of your vagina while also tantalising the packed-with-nerve-endings head of his penis.

Jangha vibhor
If you’re bored with the standard woman-on-top pose, this position is a fun, frisky way to mix things up. Your guy lies on his back, one leg outstretched and the other bent, knee pointing upward. You straddle his body sideways with your back turned slightly to his face, hold on to his knee, and lower yourself onto his penis. In this pose, your stomach is almost touching his bent knee; use it for support and leverage as you rock back and forth, and up and down.
You will love it: This torrid two-in-one move is all about your ecstasy. The steady rocking motion and thrusting create a pleasure buildup that primes you for a mind-boggling orgasm. And you can thrill him by wrapping your hands around his legs and treat him to a titillating thigh massage. Gently knead those over-worked muscles then stroke his skin from knee to groin using firm feel-good pressure.

Kamar ka kamaal
Have your man sit on the bed with his legs extended in front of him. Crawl up to him on your knees and straddle him, lowering yourself onto his erect penis. Once you’re comfortable, arch into a back bend - but be careful not to strain your lower back. Rest your head between his legs on the bed and reach your hands back to grab hold of his ankles or feet. That’s when he leans forward and the fun begins.
You will love it: For those who are limber enough to last for even a few moments, the payoff is incredible. Throw your head back, close your eyes, and totally let go, because this position will connect you two like no other. Use his legs to brace yourself and add more oomph when you thrust. After this, your man will bend over backward for another all-out sexy panorama of your naked body in his hands.

Diwan-e-khaas
Have you partner sit down in a comfy but sturdy chair or couch, his legs slightly spread. You straddle his lap as you face him, your knees bent and open against his chest, your feet braced against the seat of the chair. While your guy grips your hips, thighs, or butt, you clutch the back of the chair and begin moving up and down along his shaft.
You will love it: This passion pose supplies the kind of naughty sex scene that all men yearn for. It gives him a full-frontal va-va-voom view of you in action, one that'll undoubtedly fuel his dirtiest fantasies for a long, long time. Plus, because you're the one who sets the speed and timing, you can treat yourself to the exact motions that make you moan with desire and take you over the edge of ecstasy.

It doesn't take a Ferrari to hook the best looking girl in the room. Just follow this incantation to raise your sexiness quotient immeasurably..

TIP 1: Spin a tale

To involve a girl in conversation, you need to learn how to tell a story. Even if it is about that one time you ran away from home. Remember all the mythology and even graphic novels you read. They all have common patterns and structure. Spin your story around this structure. The good guy must always win, albeit after a few failures. Weave in conflict, disappointment, tension. Make your school adventures a killer tale and women will listen in rapt attention.

TIP 2: Mix arrogance with humour

Two most noticeable things in a guy are humour and confidence. Combine them both for a winning formula, and push the envelop to cocky. The trick is saying audaciously funny things, but within a limit. This also makes you unpredictable. Think of James Bond and all the smart-ass things he gets away with. But watch the signs so you don't overdo it.

TIP 3: Tease

Teasing is a concealed way of checking if she's interested. But this is not third grade teasing, so don't say mean things in a nice way. It has to be fun. And build up on it, but in an unpredictable way. The more you raise her anticipation, the more hooked she gets.

TIP 4: Anticipate

Learn to read non-verbal demands and situations. Read the dynamics of the people in the room before striking a conversation to use it to your advantage. This way, you won't be stuck in the corner with the wife of the suspicious and vengeful boss. Once you are able to read to people in this way, you'll know who is approachable and what to say to them.

TIP 5: Know the game

Know how a relationship progresses (from attraction to sex to commitment), how much time to spend at each level and how to progress to the next. Know what the indicators of each level and who is in charge. This way, you'll know what the woman expects from you and whether you are ready to give it to her. It also helps avoid unnecessary heart burn.

We bring to you a list of top 10 props, which are a must have in every couple's bedroom.
So get started collecting these love essentials and you could be in for some real hot action tonight.
1. Passion oils: Those unaware about the power of fragrances must know that right kind of smell works as a magical mood setter driving passion to new heights. So, a few essential passion oils in your bedroom are unavoidable so that they help you remain surcharged at all moments.
"Natural scents present in aroma oils are of key importance when it comes to heightening sexual attraction. Some scents are overpoweringly arousing aphrodisiacs for women, while others are good enough to bewitch even the most sober of men," explains Dr. Naresh Arora of Chase Aroma Therapy.
Some of the most effective passion oils are: Ylang Ylang, Rose otto, Jasmine, Neroli and Orange blossom. A drop in the diffuser, a sensuous massage or an utterly romantic bath with these passion oils is what you need to spark a night full of action!
2. A blindfold: Big or small – the excitement caused by blindfolding your lover can perk up the adrenaline rush. Add to it the feel of a satiny-silk cloth blind-folding your eyes and the thrill of touching and feeling your lover in all the unexplored places of his body.
You can also play hide and seek and various other tantalising love games using a blind-fold in the most sensuous manner. So go ahead and blindfold your partner to expose him to a sight they've never experienced before.
3. Handcuffs and silk scarves: If you lay your hands on a handcuff, nothing like it...else silk and satin scarves can also be a sensuous help to pep up the temperature. The purpose here is to have soft ties for bondage during foreplay or sex. Just turn your partner into your slave by handcuffing him/her to the bed or simply tying their limbs with something as soft and sexy as a silk scarf.
Being restrained and then loved can multiply the passion manifolds. "I find it really erotic to see my man writhing, struggling and moaning when I get naughty with him as he remains totally under my control, which happens only when I tie him up," says Neerja Mehendiratta, a 27-years-old advertising professional.
Being helpless is definitely pleasurable, even for your partner who's enjoying the mild domination. Either way, it's a win-win situation for both the partners, which adds to the sex experience.
4. A feather or a soft brush: Make your beau your sex slave and convert a mundane love making ritual into a heady passion play. Your partner is at your disposal and you have nothing but your hands to work with. Get into the experiment mode and use a soft brush to paint erotic love strokes on his chest, trunk, back...and anywhere that leaves him panting...tickling...and begging for more!
Arrange for a soft feather and let the playful touch therapy make him lose his senses to you. Men can use the feather to give a sensuous foot massage to their lady love and watch her writhe with pleasure. Or use it on her navel to turn her to new heights of pleasure.

We are a country of 1.2 billion people that don’t want to discuss the very act that put us on the planet. Let’s face it - our first and biggest sex problem is that the very word itself, “SEX”, makes us uncomfortable!
We are averse to it in advertising, in films, as living room chatter, as a subject for education in school; we certainly don’t want to acknowledge our parents ever had sex, or that our kids will have to, in order to produce the grandchildren we crave. Our resistance to discussing sexual issues and educating ourselves, our children and others on sex related matters, leads to unsatisfied sex lives, unwanted pregnancies, overpopulation, sexually transmitted diseases, and the spread of HIV/Aids. We are the ostrich that buries its head in the misplaced sands of “morality and culture”.
Which brings us to our second problem - a complete lack of knowledge about our culture? Anyone familiar with Hindu tantra or our world famous Kamasutra, will vouch for the fact that we were sexually liberal as a race. But somehow, our nation became so enamoured or influenced by the British Raj that we aspired for all that was theirs ... their fair skin, their power, their systems and their “morality”.
We absurdly swapped our sexually liberated way of life, for the “morality” of the Victorian era. And this brings us to our third problem - sensuous, joyous people that represented a tolerant culture turned inhibited, anxious and the joy of sex became a source of shame. Sex became unacceptable as an act of recreation. It was a function that was meant to be administered only as a means of procreation and that too, within the boundaries of marriage.
This led to the death of foreplay, a resistance to exploratory acts of sex and conveniently took the pressure off the man to get his woman to an orgasm. Any attempt at a position other than missionary, was treated as an act of depravity which led to problem number four - intolerance of alternative sexuality!
Biographies of Roman kings, Greek heroes, Egyptian queens, depictions on our Konark and Khajuraho temples are all testimony to homosexuality being a part of world civilisations for centuries. However, the British deemed it a criminal offence in 1860. We sent the Brits packing but retained the desire to uphold their Victorian morality and laws.
Despite the British themselves decriminalising homosexuality in 1967, and legalising gay marriages in 2005, we carried the hangover till the Indian high court ruled it as a non-criminal offence in 2009. Unfortunately, a majority of our society still prefers the hangover. Their fear and intolerance of this community breeds misconceptions, phobias and discrimination and compels 15 per cent of our population to hide and harbour feelings of shame when there should be no need for it.
Our fifth problem and most unfortunate problem is the moral police. They are problem number 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 rolled into one and perpetuators of the same. Rather than go after child molesters, rapists, paedophiles, dowry deaths, they chase innocent consenting adult lovers, file cases on those who talk pro-premarital sex (ala Khushboo), burn shops that sell love cards... The list goes on ... ! They are averse to friendship between the sexes, love, sex and even the simple art of romance out of the boundaries of marriage.
I’ve listed the problems. But what are the solutions? I suppose it’s do away with Victorian hangovers, practice tolerance, and when in bed with your partner, remember ... there are only two known mammals that enjoy sex. Humans and dolphins. Let’s thank our creator and honour his intentions. Let’s make the most of it!
