A functional penis, and intercourse are unnecessary requirements when it comes to the path to having an orgasm. The other thing that is not required? Estrogen. This should be a huge relief to millions of post menopause women who are wondering if they will ever have an orgasm again.
This episode explains what an orgasm is, the details of the six biological things that need to happen for IT to happen, and the psychosocial requirements.
Arousal
Physical stimulation
An intact neurologic system
Neurotransmitters
Healthy genital blood flow
Pelvic floor muscles that contract and relax
Followed by a conversation about the psychosocial aspects of the ability to orgasm with Dr. Rachel Zar
