Is this Stopping You from Having an Orgasm?

How many times have you had sex in the past few months that you have not had an orgasm? Judging by the fact you are reading this article it may be happening more frequently than you’d like. In fact, 1 in 3 women fails to have an orgasm when they have sex. There are many factors that play into that statistic so a better understanding of the female orgasm may be in order.

First and foremost, most women unlike most men, do not always have an orgasm every time they have sex. In many sexual studies, many women have reported the same feeling of satisfaction, relaxation and closeness to their partners after sex without orgasm as they do when they have one. Foreplay, sexual positions, duration of stimulation all play important roles in the overall sexual satisfaction a woman feels. However, there are times when this does not occur and there is something more.

Women are left feeling unsatisfied and wondering why they cannot climax and have an orgasm. They may actually have a medical condition known as anorgasmia.

Is Anorgasmia Stopping You from Having an Orgasm?

Anorgasmia is the medical term for regular difficulty reaching and having an orgasm after ample sexual stimulation, causing a woman’s personal distress. Anorgasmia is actually a very common occurrence, affecting at least 1 in 5 women worldwide. This is a sexual disorder that can affect both men and women alike. Based on studies, however, this condition is more prevalent in women than in men.

This disorder can cause sexual frustration leading to a low-libido and potentially even relationship and self-esteem issues. In addition to this, when sexual excitement is triggered, pelvic pain can result from a lack of relief of tension. In other cases, anorgasmia can eventually bring on a limited or complete absence of sexual arousal.

There are varying degrees of anorgasmia and for this reason, it is classified according to three categories – primary, secondary and situational anorgasmia.

Primary Anorgasmia

This category describes cases in which orgasm has never been achieved. While this condition is very rare, suffers are not necessarily sexually dysfunctional; they can experience low levels of sexual arousal without the peaks required for an orgasm to occur.

More often than not, they can still derive some sexual pleasure from kissing, cuddling and caressing, as well as from the intimacy of the act of penetration. While underlying health problems may be the cause of the primary anorgasmia, there is often no apparent physical or psychological reason explaining why one cannot have an orgasm.

Secondary Anorgasmia

This category describes cases in which the ability to have an orgasm has been lost, with the causes being many and varied. They can range from physical traumas to psychological issues. Depression and grief are common examples of psychological complications that lead to secondary anorgasmia. Various medications or substance abuse can be a contributing factor to this condition.

Major health problems that impair a person’s blood flow, such as diabetes or cardiovascular disease, can reduce the individual’s capacity to feel sexually aroused. Hormonal imbalances often affect an individual’s libido eventually resulting in anorgasmia.

Situational Anorgasmia

This category is the most common type as well as most treatable. In this category the individual has the ability to have an orgasm, however, it is based solely on the situation. It is possible in some cases and totally out of reach in others.

For instance, it could be a psychological response to a particular stimulus to intercourse with a certain partner, or type of foreplay. In most cases, it is frequently just a matter of sexual preference and rarely classified as a serious problem.
