The Top 10 Health Benefits of Orgasms
As well as feeling amazing orgasms also have many health benefits that you may not be aware of. As if the sensation wasn't enough of a reward in itself; you will also be looking after your genital area, keeping your cardiovascular system working properly and lifting your mood, amongst many other things.
As a general rule fit and healthy men do not have much of a problem reaching orgasm, whereas some women find that they are unable to reach the big O no matter how hard they try. Ladies, my advice to you is simply to stop trying. The more pressure you put on yourself to have an orgasm, the less likely it is to ever happen. All women are different and some women may never experience an orgasm because as far as I'm concerned the female orgasm is at least 50% mental. If you're not in the right head space; if you feel rushed, if your partner is getting frustrated with you or if you're not thinking sexy thoughts then you won' get anywhere. To give yourself the best chance of having an orgasm for the first time you need to jump into bed with your partner(or on your own!) will the sole in tension of having an orgasm. Turn down the lights, grab some lube and a vibrating sex toy and get down to it. Get your partner to warm you up with kisses and his hands and then progress to the toy when you're all hot and bothered. Ask your partner to use the toy on you gently and to massage your body as he does so. Don' rush and push everything out of your mind. If you're relaxed and in the zone then you're giving yourself the best chance to experience that elusive big O.
