Sometimes we have problems that we can't tell anyone about, but they bother us, don't we? Difficulty satisfying our sexual life, that is, finding it difficult to achieve orgasm, is one such problem. This is actually a problem that many people have, but it's something they feel a little embarrassed to talk about. So today, let's talk about this condition called 'Anorgasmia' in detail, as if we were talking to a friend.
What is Anorgasmia?
Simply put, anorgasmia is the inability to achieve orgasm during sexual intercourse, even though it feels pleasurable and good. Or, even when you do achieve orgasm, it is not as strong or as frequent as you would like. This is a type of sexual dysfunction . This condition can affect anyone, regardless of gender. Some people also call it 'orgasmic dysfunction' . This can cause a lot of stress and anxiety, and can sometimes affect your relationships.
An orgasm is a feeling of intense pleasure, a sexual climax, that occurs after sexual stimulation. It can feel like a great weight has been lifted from your body, and you may even experience uncontrollable movements. The duration and intensity of this orgasm vary from person to person. Some people need more sexual stimulation to reach orgasm, while others may need less.
A person with anorgasmia may have the desire and pleasure to have sex. However, the inability to achieve orgasm can cause great pain and distress. Your doctor can help you find the cause and recommend appropriate treatment.
How Anorgasmia Affects Women
Anorgasmia in women, sometimes called 'female orgasmic disorder' , can be divided into four main types:
- Primary or lifelong anorgasmia: This means you have never had an orgasm.
- Secondary or acquired anorgasmia: You used to be able to have an orgasm, but now you can't. This is especially common with menopause.
- Situational anorgasmia: You can only become aroused during specific situations, such as masturbation.
- General anorgasmia: You can never achieve orgasm, even though you feel sexually aroused and aroused.
Although the risk of infertility increases with age, it can affect anyone of any age. It is reported that about 15% of women have never had an abortion .
How Anorgasmia Affects Men
When talking about male anorgasmia, doctors often refer to it as a part of the sexual dysfunction known as 'delayed ejaculation' or 'inhibited ejaculation' . This can cause problems with sexual performance and pleasure, and can often lead to anxiety and avoidance of sex. There are two main types of male anorgasmia:
- Primary anorgasmia: You have never had an orgasm or ejaculated for as long as you can remember.
- Secondary anorgasmia: You can only orgasm or ejaculate under certain circumstances.
Ejaculation is a complex process involving hormones , nerves , organs, and your mental state. Any disruption in this process can affect your ability to achieve orgasm. Also, some medical conditions can affect your ability to achieve orgasm.
