Male Orgasmic Disorder
Male orgasmic disorder is defined as a persistent or recurrent inability to achieve orgasm despite lengthy sexual contact or while participating in sexual intercourse. The affected man may regularly experience delays in orgasm, or may be unable to experience orgasm altogether.
Male orgasm is a peak emotional and physical experience, whereas ejaculation is simply a reflex action occurring at the lower portion of the spinal cord and resulting in ejection of semen (however in most instances they occur almost simultaneously). Some men have been able to recognize the separation of the two processes, enabling them to experience multiple orgasms without the occurrence of ejaculation.Once ejaculation takes place, a period of recovery time is required prior to a subsequent orgasm.
Abnormalities of male orgasmic disorder may be "primary" or "secondary." Primary male orgasmic disorder abnormalities are of lifelong duration with effective sexual performance never having been achieved. Secondary male orgasmic disorder abnormalities are acquired after a period of normal orgasmic function.
If you have been having male orgasmic disorder, then see a Family Practice, Internal Medicine, Urology, Neurology, or Psychiatry specialist. |
