At the peak of arousal (0:57), orgasm occurs and semen is ejaculated from the penis in a series of rhythmic contractions. (In this demonstration, there are 15 strong contractions followed by 10 weaker contractions). Once arousal has peaked (1:35), the penis returns to its flaccid state, the scrotum loosens, and the testicles descend.
The study showed that if people paused when they were about 90 percent of the way to climax, and then resumed after slowing down a bit, their eventual orgasm was way more powerful.
The sperm mix with seminal fluid in the seminal vesicles, prostate fluid from the prostate gland, and lubricants from the bulbourethral gland. During climax, muscles at the end of the bladder neck tighten to prevent retrograde flow of semen. In retrograde ejaculation, these bladder neck muscles are either very weak or the nerves controlling the ...
Ejaculation is the discharge of semen (the ejaculate; normally containing sperm) from the penis through the urethra. [1] [2] [3] It is the final stage and natural objective of male sexual stimulation, and an essential component of natural conception.
Women can orgasm without penetrative sex The clitoris is located outside of the vaginal opening and, because of that, women don't need to have penetrative sex to orgasm, Streicher says.
Orgasm (from Greek ὀργασμός, orgasmos; "excitement, swelling") or sexual climax (or simply climax) is the sudden release of accumulated sexual excitement during the sexual response cycle, characterized by intense sexual pleasure resulting in rhythmic, involuntary muscular contractions in the pelvic region.
Although the refractory period varies widely among individuals, ranging from minutes to days, [4] [5] [6] most men cannot achieve or maintain an erection during this time, and many perceive a psychological feeling of satisfaction and are temporarily uninterested in further sexual activity; the penis may be hypersensitive, and further sexual stimulation may feel painful during this time frame.
The resolution phase occurs after orgasm and allows the muscles to relax, blood pressure to drop and the body to slow down from its excited state. [1] The refractory period, which is part of the resolution phase, is the time frame in which usually a man is unable to orgasm again, though women can also experience a refractory period.
