Orgasm

Published by

For women, orgasm is the release of sexual tension felt in the genitals. This release is sudden, short and highly pleasurable. Involuntary muscle contractions begin. Blood pressure, heart rate and breathing are at their highest rates, with a rapid intake of oxygen. Muscles in the feet spasm. There is a sudden, forceful release of sexual tension.

In women, the muscles of the vagina and anus contract. The uterus also undergoes rhythmic contractions.

In men, rhythmic contractions of the muscles at the base of the penis result in the ejaculation of semen.

A rash, or "sex flush" may appear over the entire body.

Orgasm Preconditions

Tension has to build up in the muscles of the genital area for orgasm to happen. This starts after the Arousal phase during the Plateu phase. Women will normally get serious and start concentrating on building up the tension. If a woman relax or break this concentration the chain of ever increasing tension will be broken and the process will have to start from the beginning to get back the tension and concentration.

What Does an Orgasm Feel Like?

Women who have never experienced orgasm, and women who are not sure if they have, often ask, "What does an orgasm feel like?"

This is a hard, if not impossible, question to answer. Imagine trying to explain to someone what it feels like to sneeze or yawn. Not easy to do. How our senses and brain interpret physical stimuli is subjective, that is dependent solely on the individual’s perceptions.

Subjective reports frequently mention a sensation of tingling in the spine, brain, and genital areas. While some women relay an experience being on the verge of passing out, others report a level of enjoyment only somewhat less than that of "the earth moving". If a woman has experienced some form of nerve damage, she may not be able to tell if she has had an orgasm.

Just before the contractions

  • Faint sparks suddenly turns to fire
  • Tremendous surge of tension and a kind of delicious feeling
  • A sudden feeling of lightheadedness followed by an intense feeling of relief and elation
  • Tension building until you think it can’t build any more, then release
  • Loss of feeling for the surroundings except for the other person. Movements are spontaneous and intense
  • Heightened feeling of excitement with severe muscular tension, rigid straightening of the body for a few seconds and then a strong and general relaxation and a very tired relieved feeling.
  • Enormous buildup of tension, anxiety and strain followed by a period of total oblivion to sensation then a tremendous expulsion of the buildup with a feeling of wonderfulness and relief.
  • Utmost relief from any type of tension. The most fulfilling experience of enjoyment. The feeling is exuberant and the most enjoyable feeling ever experienced
  • A building of tension and frustration until the climax. A tightening inside, palpitating rhythm, explosion, warmth and peace
  • Complete relief of all tensions. Very powerful and filled with ecstasy.Contractions of stomach and back muscles.
  • It starts deep, somewhere in the ‘core’, gets bigger, stronger, better and more beautiful until I am just 4 square inches of ecstatic crotch area.
  • Beautifully excruciating. It begins in the clitoris and also surges into the whole vaginal area.
  • It’s a peak of almost, ALMOST, ALMOSTTTTT, like riding the tilt and whirl.
  • The area around my clitoris suddenly comes alive and it sparcles and sends bright dancing sensations all around. Then it becomes focused like a point of intense light. Like a bright blip on a radar screen.
  • An almost frantic itch-pain-pleasure in my vagina and clitoral area that seems almost insatiable, it is also extremely hot and I loose control of everything, then there is an explosion of unbelievable warmth and relief to the itch-pain-pleasure!! It is really indescribable.
  • All your concentration is on it, until a feeling of intense relief encompasses your whole body and mind.

Where: Clitoris

  • Just before orgasm my clitoris is burning and tingling and vibrating until there is a sudden orgasmic rush of heat and burning into the vagina, followed by contractions and clapping the vaginal walls together.
  • Great pressure and tightness in the clitoris like the organ itself will explode. Then it grabs my pelvis and vagina.
  • The clitoral area builds up tension with the release being in the vagina. Clitoris and vagina works together.
  • It starts in the clitoris and surrounds the vagina like a hoop.
  • It spreads from the clitoral region descending to deep in the vagina and it makes me want penetration.
  • A strong feeling in the clitoris, expanding and filling and becoming unbearably pleasurable. At the moment of orgasm there is a shift to the vagina and strong vaginal contractions with me swooning and trembling.
  • It starts with a pressure from within and a tingling sensation near the clitoris, which spreads to the vagina inside my abdomen. There is a general stretching tension throughout until orgasm breaks.

Where: Vagina

  • I feel it in the depths of the vagina. I have a strong urge to be penetrated  which, if I allow it before I’ve begun coming, makes orgasm virtually impossible.
  • It feels like a balloon in the abdomen filling up and then exploding rapidly through the body.
  • I feel a tense tightness for several seconds midway in my vagina.
  • In the base of the vagina – a burning. tingling feeling, then I feel like jumping and screaming.
  • A burning and aching feeling in the vagina and the feeling that the rest of my body will follow.
  • I have burning warm feelings in the upper opening of the vagina
  • I am unaware of my body except for a center core deep inside my vagina.
  • A sort of bearing down /opening feeling in the mouth of the womb.
  • A hard pulling and throbbing sensation. The harder the orgasm, the further ‘up’ and ‘back’ towards the uterus it feels.

Contractions

  • A spasm starting inside my cunt (a regular pulse beat) but also extending down my legs and through my body
  • An intense sensation in my vagina and clitoris and then intense pulsations close to pain.
  • My clitoris vibrates at some unbelievable speed and the muscles in my vagina and further back contract intensely, my head seems disburdened, my toes curl, my abdomen feels strong and my whole body pulsates along with my clitoris and vagina.
  • Pulsating white lines of intense pleasure with a lovely throbbing in my vaginal area.
  • My body runs itself with no thinking on my part. I feel a rhythm in my vaginal canal, a throbbing or muscle contraction, and my upper legs are very tense.
  • Waves of muscles in my vagina are pulsating, tingling, alive.
  • Vaginal contractions radiate out over my body in waves.
  • Orgasm is like intense tickling in the front of my vagina with a sudden release through rolling pulses inside my vagina.
  • Involuntary and highly pleasant spasms in my clitoris, vagina and anal areas. Sometimes my whole body seems to be in spasm.The pleasure is in my vagina but my whole body react.
  • A series of profound contractions in my vagina with immediate reactions of sweating, hyperventilation and release.
  • Vaginal contractions at the moment of release. In a strong orgasm, uterine contractions as well. Sometimes my whole body jerks but I am not sure how involuntary thet is.
  • Fantastic excitation of my clitoris and a general explosion through my whole body. There are definite contractions of the uterus and vagina. This was especially apparent when I am highly pregnant.
  • I feel the muscles in my vagina ripping open and shut, sometimes powerfully, sometimes lightly. A few times it has been so intense that i felt cramps in my uterus.

 

Signs confirming orgasm

  • Rhythmic muscle contractions occur in the outer third of the vagina, the uterus and anus.
  • The first muscle contractions are the most intense, and occur at a rate of about 1 per second.
  • As the orgasm continues, the contractions become less intense and occur at a more random rate.
  • A mild orgasm may have 3 -5 contractions, an intense orgasm 10 -15.
  • The "sex flush" (redness) becomes even more pronounced and may cover a greater percentage of the body.
  • Muscles throughout the body may contract during orgasm, not just those in the pelvic area.
  • Involuntary pelvic and body movement may take place during orgasm. The other side of this is that the body may become completely rigid and motionless.
  • Some women will emit or spray some fluid from their urethra during orgasm. This is often called female ejaculation.
  • A woman’s facial expression may indicate that she is in pain when she is having a pleasurable orgasm.
  • At the peak of orgasm the entire body may become momentarily rigid.
  • Breathing may become irregular.
  • The vagina can open and close with the contractions.
  • An intense feeling of wanting to be penetrated and ‘filled up’ may occur
  • Vocalization may happen with grunts and noises being made.
  • Your hands my clasp onto something involuntary.
  • Loss of consciousness about the surroundings as the brain shuts down for a short period during orgasm.
  • The body and head arches outwards during orgasm, exposing the neck.
  • Just before orgasm the clitoris becomes stiffer and this cause it to retract under the clitoral hood.
  • The clitoris becomes extremely sensitive and even painful to touch.
  • Sometimes a woman can get a headache or start to cry or laugh uncontrollably. These reactions are not very common but it does occur.

Just before orgasm a women’s blood pressure and heart rate is about twice the resting rate. This allows oxygen and nutrients to be carried to the muscles and organs that have increased metabolic activity. A woman’s sensitivity to pain is about halve of the resting rate but her sensitivity to touch is the same or increased. This means that the increased intense muscle movement during orgasm can lead to bruising and scratches without any awareness of pain while a single hair in the face can cause extreme uncomfort.
