Ask a Question
Question:
My girlfriend is having problems reaching orgasms as of lately.
We have been sexually active for about a year and a half and nothing
like this has ever came up. I was wondering if there is anything or
any position that would increase the chance for her to reach her
orgasm? She always says that she can feel it coming but we never get
there. Please help.

Answer: by Carolyn Gerdes: (05/15/2004)
There are many factors that are involved with producing sexual
arousal and orgasm. From your question it sounds like your girlfriend
has had orgasms in the past. Events such as an illness, a new
medication, worry or stress are all things that commonly alter ones
sexual functioning.
These factors should be investigated before jumping to the following
suggestions so as not to create additional anxiety. The more effort
that one puts into having an orgasm can actually cause unnecessary
stress. Sexual experiences should be concerned with pleasure and not
a specific goal such as orgasm. Many women find that they require
other forms of stimulation in addition to vaginal stimulation to reach
orgasm. Many women often find that using a vibrator applied to the
breasts and/or clitoris during intercourse helps them to reach
orgasm. As for positions you may want to try having your girlfriend in
the superior position (on top) as this often provides for better
clitoral stimulation.Reviewed by Sexual Health Editorial Team
