This Big O! An orgasm is the height or peak of sexual arousal when the body releases sexual tension and pressure. It involves very intense feelings of pleasure in your genitals and throughout your body. An orgasm usually lasts a few seconds and feels very good. Orgasm occurs during sexual stimulation of your genitals and sexual (erogenous) zones of your body.

There are several types of orgasms that people may experience, including clitoral, vaginal, anal, and even blended orgasms that combine stimulation from multiple erogenous zones. Each person's experience can be unique, and the sensations can vary widely. It's important to remember that everyone is different, and what works for one person might not be the same for another.

If you have questions or concerns, consider speaking with a healthcare professional or a sex therapist.
