Do you understand what an orgasm is?

According to Dr. Reda, there are many women who do not understand what happens when the body reaches an orgasm and so are unable to identify it.  An orgasm occurs as the third stage of intercourse. First of all, there must be a desire followed by foreplay, and not just any foreplay, but one that is appealing to the woman and the areas that please her.

What happens during an orgasm?

An orgasm occurs in a number of seconds when the body reaches its climax as a result of pleasure and starts to contract through vibrations. When this occurs, endorphins are released in the brain that spread happiness, peacefulness, and tranquillity that fills you up with satisfaction.

At the same time, the level of oxytocin in your body increases which makes you feel connected and intimate with your partner making you enjoy the sexual activity.

How can a woman reach orgasm?

There are two areas where the woman can climax and feel extreme pleasure: the clitoris and the vagina. According to Dr. Reda, one of the reasons why some women fail to orgasm when having sex with their husbands is due to trying to orgasm through the clitoris. In the video above, Dr. Reda shares solutions and gives advice on what to do if you’re having trouble orgasming during sexual intercourse.
