  by Cindy DeLucaSeptember 2008 Studies show women are more satisfied with orgasms from intercourse than orgasms from masturbation. However, many women either have never, or rarely have orgasms from intercourse without stimulation of the clitoris. If you fall into this category, there are things that you can do to get the orgasm you want. First of all, there are biological differences between vaginal and clitoral orgasms. While the clitoris only contains one major nerve, the vagina contains four, with a uniform distribution of nerve endings throughout. One nerve of the vagina plays a big role in relieving stress. A study that measured blood pressure of participants who either had an orgasm only by having sexual intercourse the prior night, or orgasm from masturbation, concluded that those who had sexual intercourse had lower blood pressure in response to stressful situations. Another interesting fact about this nerve is that it goes strait to the brain instead of the spinal cord, and women who have a completely severed spinal cord can still have orgasms even though they have no feeling in their clitoris. This seems to contradict the belief that the cause of orgasms from intercourse is the stimulation of the clitoris. Another biological difference involves a chemical called prolactin that is released after an orgasm, and promotes sexual satisfaction by counteracting strong dopamine activity in the brain during arousal and sex. One study comparing the prolactin levels in men and women after an orgasm found that the levels of prolactin released was highest in orgasms originating from sexual intercourse alone. Psychological aspects of orgasms hint at a method to help women who can’t have orgasms from sexual intercourse. Several recent publications suggest that women who consistently have orgasms from only intercourse alone are likely to be more sensitive to genital sensations and able to recognize internal cues that lead to orgasms. A woman can use these cues to help bring herself to climax. Furthermore, women who only focus on masturbation of the clitoris have more difficulty reaching orgasm from intercourse alone. So it is important to really pay attention to your vagina and not rely on your clitoris for stimulation. If you want to achieve intercourse orgasms, sensate focus is a way to learn how to get in tune with your own pleasurable sensations, bringing about internal self-awareness. Sensate focus has been shown and utilized for several decades to help with orgasmic disorder, in which a woman can’t orgasm with any method, and sexual arousal disorder, in which a woman can’t get sexually aroused. Despite the psychological and physical benefits of sexual intercourse orgasms, the medical community considers the inability for a woman to orgasm from intercourse alone as being normal. Their definition of orgasmic disorder is that it only applies to women who can’t have an orgasm from masturbation or intercourse with manual stimulation. Perhaps instead of accepting this, scientists should consider the possibility that a woman’s inability to have an orgasm from sexual intercourse alone is a condition that can be treated and should focus more on vaginal sensory techniques. back to top References: (1) Brody, Stuart, “Intercourse Orgasm Consistency, Concordance of Women’s Genital and Subjective Sexual Arousal, and Erotic Stimulus Presentation Sequence”, Journal of Sex and Marital Therapy, 33, p31, 2007.
