Female frigidity and anorgasmia. Differences and peculiarities.

Many women have difficulty experiencing orgasm. This problem is often labeled by the familiar term - "frigidity" - It may seem like a simple explanation for all or many female sexual problems. It would seem a simple explanation for all or many female sexual problems. But no, everything is much more complex and deeper - in addition to frigidity there is such a thing as anorgasmia or orgasmic dysfunction, also manifested in the inability to experience orgasm, but accompanied by other sensations and caused by other reasons.

In addition to frigidity, there is also such a thing as anorgasmia or orgasmic dysfunction

We'll figure it out, where frigidity is and where anorgasmia is.

First, about frigidity.

This term is used to describe female sexual coldness - such a woman is not only not orgasmic, she is not interested in sex itself. She does not fantasize about sexual themes, does not feel attracted to men, has no erotic sensations, she does not dream frank dreams, and as a consequence of all this, she has no orgasm. There's nowhere for it to come from.

• Frigid ladies do not consider themselves inferior, as they do not consider their own sexual coldness as a problem. If they go to a sexologist, wishing to awaken sensuality in themselves, it is not because they are angered by their partner's lack of reactions to their actions - these women are angered by their partner's reaction to their lack of reactions. That's how confusing it seems at first glance.
• A frigid woman can safely do without sex, focusing on other aspects of life, and without experiencing the frustrations that result from not fulfilling her desires (in this case, sexual desires - they just aren't there).
• Frigid women very rarely, but still experience moral satisfaction from sex with a partner. The bodily contact itself may be pleasant to them, but they do not reach the feeling of physical excitement.

The cause of poor sexuality - weak sexual constitution set by nature. Sometimes frigidity can be a consequence of problems in relationships with parents, lack of warmth and understanding. If a woman has a desire to improve the quality of sexual life, to change something in herself, she should consult a psychologist, who will help to trace the cause-and-effect relationships from childhood, which led to a disappointing result in adulthood, and deal with them.

Frigidity is rare

Sexological work experience confirms that frigidity is rare - Most often the problems of insufficient arousal and inability to experience orgasm are caused by orgasmic dysfunction, which is a different phenomenon.

What's behind anorgasmia?

For example, orgasmic dysfunction or anorgasmia refers to a woman's difficulty in reaching orgasm, while she is able to experience sexual desire and all sorts of erotic experiences.

Women who suffer from orgasmic dysfunction may experience sexual arousal that is not strong enough to achieve the "sexual explosion" of orgasm.

This condition can have different causes and manifestations. In extreme forms, a woman may simply be unaware, what an orgasm is - She has never had it, and she simply considers all her girlfriends' stories about unearthly sensations to be lies. In milder forms there is only a decrease in the frequency of orgasm, which may be caused by changes in the internal state, the use of other techniques of sexual intercourse, etc. That is, it is not caused by disease or sexual disorders - purely individual physiological reaction to external changes.

If after a year of regular sex, the orgasm to a woman has not "returned", it is a serious reason to consult a sexologist.

Thus, physiological anorgasmia is a normal phenomenon, although this statement is only half true: the amount of time during which a woman has not experienced full sexual sensations matters. If after a year of regular sex, orgasm to a woman has not "returned", it is a serious reason to consult a sexologist. The specialist will help Identify the specific type of orgasmic dysfunction (there are 4 in total) and outline an individualized plan of work to regain the ability to experience the full range of sexual sensations.

The options of interaction with a specialist may vary - online counseling, Skype counseling, live communication. It remains to choose the best way for yourself, seek help, and finally regain the feeling of joy from full sexual interaction.
