Is It Possible to Have a ‘Peegasm’ from Holding Your Pee?

Sometimes it's just not possible to use the bathroom-a long road trip, a wedding ceremony, a work meeting-and you've got to hold it in. But when you finally do get a chance to pee it's a relief-so much so that people are purposely holding in their bladders to feel a "peegasm" sensation.


A Reddit thread went viral after the original poster asked if anyone gets "mini orgasms from peeing after holding it in?" Dozens of other users responded with their own experiences, with one saying it "feels like a sensational whole body massage."

People Health Squad member Mary Jane Minkin, M.D., a board-certified ob-gyn at Yale University School of Medicine, says it's certainly possible that releasing urine after a long period of time leads to a stimulation of pelvic nerves.

"I think that's certainly a possibility," Dr. Minkin tells People. "It could feel like an orgasmic response." But there are also minor-but potential-health hazards from holding it in, she adds.

"I'm all for something that makes people feel good, but not if there are some harmful effects," says Dr. Minkin. Much like staying in a wet bathing suit or sweaty workout clothes, waiting to pee can cause a yeast infection.


"If there's an infection brewing and you're not voiding frequently to get rid of the bugs that are potentially in the bladder, that's certainly a potential issue." Waiting to use the bathroom can also alter the bladder musculature, but overall, "holding it for an extra 30 minutes is not going to be a big problem."

Still, Dr. Minkin says she can't recommend anything that could cause a health issue. "Since there are these potential issues, why not have an orgasm through a better way?" she says. "Have sex, or use a vibrator. Why not use something like that instead of waiting for your bladder to bust?"

7 Health Benefits of Having an Orgasm

Hell yes! Turns out, a big O a day may be as useful of an Rx as an apple a day. From lower stress to more happy hormones to a stronger immune system, the benefits of orgasm go far beyond feeling more connected to your partner (although that’s a big win, too).


Read up before you strip down, then go on and test the benefits of orgasm yourself. (Before we jump right in, here are five things everyone needs to know about sex and dating, according to a relationship therapist.)
You'll Boost Your Immune System

Screw Emergen-C: Sex is the best way to prevent the common cold. Past research has shown that one of the big benefits of orgasm is that it boosts your immune system. A study of college students showed that those who had sex once or twice a week had immunoglobulin levels 30 percent higher than those who were abstinent. Just maybe don't have sex when you're sick...nobody wants to sneeze mid-romp and spread those germs around.

Your Pain Threshold Will Be Higher

You may not orgasm every single time you have sex, and that's totally fine. (Although, can we get a slow clap for this woman who made a resolution to have more Os with her partner?) Here's one reason to go for gold anyway: Another benefit of orgasm is that it produces a pain-blocking effect, so you won't be as sensitive to pain (like when you accidentally stub your toe on the way to the bathroom), says Dr. Beverly Whipple, a sex educator, researcher, counselor, and coauthor of The G Spot and Other Discoveries About Human Sexuality.


That said, there is one exception: "Women who eat a diet high in spicy foods don't always get the pain-blocking benefit because the capsaicin found in chili peppers prevents it from occurring," says Whipple. In other words, lay off the hot stuff. (If you want to spice it up in the bedroom instead, consider trying one of these best sex positions for your zodiac sign.)

You May Live Longer
v
A study conducted in South Wales over the course of 10 years examined the relationship between the frequency of orgasm and mortality among middle-aged men, who were asked about their physical health in addition to the frequency of orgasms. At the 10-year follow-up, they found that those who had two or more orgasms a week had a 50 percent lower mortality risk than those who had less-frequent orgasms. Studies that have since followed have shown a positive association between sexual intercourse and women's longevity as well, so keep on keepin' on. (DYK your relationship status can also help predict your lifespan?)

You'll Help Regulate Your Cycle

A Planned Parenthood report showed that several studies have linked regular sex—meaning once or twice a non-menstruating week—to more regular periods, along with relief from menstrual cramps when it's that time of the month. Translation: Get busy now so you can Netflix and actually chill later. (If your period is all over the place, one of these things could be causing your irregular cycle.)

You'll Feel Happier

No shocker here, though it's always nice to have a little scientific research to back this up: People who regularly have sex—orgasm or not—are happier, according to a study in the Journal of Psychosomatic Research. The researchers looked at 4,000 women in the U.S. and examined their mood, sexuality, and menstrual cycle. They found strong links between sexual interest and an overall sense of well-being. And those who had higher senses of well-being also had a stronger sex drive and overall higher quality of life.

You Could Be More Likely to Conceive

For those trying to start a family, timing can play a crucial role: In a report in the Archives of Sexual Behavior, women who have orgasms during sex after their male partner's orgasm retained more sperm than those who never hit the big O or hit it before their partner. Researchers say it likely has to do with the release of oxytocin that occurs as a benefit of orgasm. But that's not all: Dr. Whipple says that sex can also help create a healthy pregnancy overall, and has been proven to help more women carry to term.

You May Lose Weight

A study published in the Journal of Sex & Marital Therapy showed that frequent intercourse and sexual activity, whether with a partner or solo, has been connected to a smaller hip and waist circumference for both men and women. On top of feeling fierce AF, that also means getting busy can help lower your risk for serious health issues like heart disease and type 2 diabetes. (Now try these sex positions that double as exercise to get started.)

What's Your RELATIONSHIP ATTACHMENT STYLE?

Attachment Theory is an area of psychology that describes the nature of emotional attachment between humans. It begins as children with our attachment to parents. The nature of this attachment, and how well it’s fostered and cared for, will then influence the nature of our attachment to romantic partners later in our life.
My hope is for everyone to be aware and understand their attachment style so we can then learn, move forward, heal, and create healthy and secure attachments as adults.

Secure Attachment:

• People with secure attachment strategies are comfortable displaying interest and affection.
• They are also comfortable being alone and independent. They’re able to correctly prioritize their relationships within their life and tend to draw clear boundaries and stick to them.
• They seek and maintain close, stable relationships.
• They had their needs met as children and felt safe and cared for.

Anxious Attachment:

• These are people with a sensitive nervous system who have a hard time communicating their needs directly.
• They also tend to act out when triggered. For example, they make their partner jealous when they feel threatened by someone else.
• They crave intimacy and can never get enough closeness.
• They desperately seek security and attention from their partner, but this can push him/her away.
• Their caregivers were inconsistent in attending to their needs.

Fearful Attachment:


• These folks strongly fear abandonment and rejection and have low self-esteem.
• They have a negative view of others. Their desire to be connected with others is paired with a very strong hesitation.
• They have high anxiety in relationships because they are used to people being inconsistent from their childhood.

Avoidant Attachment:

• These types downplay the importance of a relationship and are usually extremely self-reliant.
• They can become more vulnerable when they have a crisis in their lives.
• They struggle with deep intimacy and trust. They tend to connect and then pull away when the relationship feels too intense.
• They may resist commitment.
• Their caregivers were probably distant, cold, or unresponsive. As a result, they become independent and self-reliant, not wanting to rely on inconsistent people.
• These types of people are extremely independent and self-directed.
• They’re commitment-phobes and experts at rationalizing their way out of any intimate situation.
• They regularly complain about feeling “crowded” or “suffocated” when people try to get close to them.

Insecure Attachment:

• These people commonly have poor self-image and self-esteem.
• They will try to seek validation from others for whatever they do.
• They are sensitive and rush into relationships while tending to have the “come here-go away” attitude in relationships.
• They have poor communication skills and display passive roles in relationships.
Our attachment style becomes the blueprint for our intimate relationships. It also impacts our choice in romantic partners and how we relate to them. You CAN change and become more securely attached.
A few ways to start:
• Share your feelings with your partner.
• Notice your relationship patterns. Becoming more aware of your avoidant and anxious behaviors is the first step in changing.
• Do things that make you feel good about yourself. Self-care is key.
• Work with a therapist to shift your attachment style.
• Spend time with people who model healthy relationships.
• Communicate your needs and expectations clearly to your partner.
Be patient and gentle with yourself as you work on changing.

Why Ex-Hookups Are RESURFACING DURING QUARANTINE

Tale as old as time—exes all coming back at once. We’ve touched on this topic before, but today we’re expanding on the quarantine edition thanks to our editor, Michelle Scanga’s pov. Read her thoughts on exes (and ex-hookups) resurfacing during the Q.
It was day four of quarantine (yes, only took four days of restrictions from officials), and I already had at least three old flings popping up in my messages (DMs, texts, etc.). Goes without saying, for some reason, they always come in waves—but whatever, keep reading …
Two things to kick it off, 1) I’m not naive. I know that most likely they are bored and craving attention (I’m just as guilty when it comes to lusting for some excitement and entertainment). And 2) I’d never mention names, of course—I wouldn’t want a potential s/o to see this and think I only spark conversation to source content ideas because that’s definitely not the case. I’m sharing because I was talking about this with my girlfriends and they felt the same way with ex-flings hitting them up.
So let’s dig into how to best tackle responding, entertaining the convo, and setting expectations. I’ll keep it brief with my personal take as I’m no dating expert, but I do love crowdsourcing opinions. Here’s what I’ve gathered.
• If you respond to someone, you’re most likely not interested in meeting up post-quarantine. Sure, you can entertain the banter for a bit (this is me being a Gemini and playing both sides), but you should be upfront about it and not waste either of your time. Easier said than done … (working on it).
• I haven’t done this (it’s crowdsourced advice from a friend), but let yourself be vulnerable and straight up have an honest conversation on what you both are looking for so you know what to expect post-quarantine. #adulting

• Let yourself have FaceTime fun and casual conversation (we all need something to make us smile right now).
• Not to be a Debbie Downer, but don’t get your hopes up—have your guard up a bit. As I said, everyone is so bored right now, hence the sudden burst of communication. Ultimately, trust your gut but keep an eye out for behavior patterns.
• Ignore them if you want to, and don’t feel guilty about not responding if you truly have no desire. It might be a no-brainer, but it never hurts to have a friendly reminder that you’re not obligated to give your attention where you don’t want to.
• Remember you have the power to throw your time (and to be blunt as Kendall put it, “cooch”) where you want it. Don’t forget that.
OK, that’s all I can come up with for now. But I know I’m not alone in this situation so I want to know: how are you guys handling exes (whatever box they fall in) resurfacing during this time? Share your thoughts and tips on Instagram. Because the more you know, you know.

How to Safely Have Sex During Pregnancy

From the moment you see a faint little "plus" sign appear on that stick, it’s pretty clear your world is about to change in a million indescribable ways. But chances are, that same incredible moment will also send you down an information rabbit hole, as you feverishly begin to Google everything. Seemingly overnight, you'll be asking the Interwebs whether it's safe to do anything from eat string cheese to jump in a bouncy castle. And you'll probably find yourself Googling how to safely have sex during pregnancy at least once.
Yep; the list of pregnancy worries sure do pile up. But the short answer to that last question, according to experts, is easy: Barring any high-risk pregnancy complications, having sex while pregnant is perfectly safe — so don't be afraid to do it (and do it, and do it.)
Remember: His penis isn't going to hurt the baby
I know what you’re thinking: With all that bumping and jostling, how could it not bother the baby? But your baby is safely protected thanks to the amniotic fluid surrounding them, which basically serves as one big shock absorber.
"This protects the fetus during any sort of physical activity, whether that be running or having sex," Dr. Holly Cummings, an assistant professor of Clinical Obstetrics and Gynecology at Penn Medicine, tells Woman’s Day. So there’s "no need to worry that the physical nature of sexual activity can hurt the fetus in any way.”
Some positions will feel better than others, so don't be afraid to switch things.
In fact, you may not have a choice in the matter, since some of your old standards may no longer be possible once you hit the third trimester. At that point, Dr. Cummings suggests using your physical comfort as a guide.
"For instance, if you are comfortable lying on your back, then go right ahead,” she says. “Although your partner should try to support their body weight with their arms rather than on your belly."
Other positions you may find more comfortable include lying on your side, or being on top (where you can control the depth of penetration), or on your hands and knees (AKA “doggy style”).
If you're struggling with lower back pain, which is super common during pregnancy, Dr. Cummings suggests putting a pillow under your lower back if you're lying flat, or between your knees if you're on your side.

It's all about getting comfortable with your partner and your new bod.
Sometimes, worries about pregnancy sex have less to do with safety, and more to do with changes in body image. It’s an issue licensed therapist Sari Cooper sees all the time, as the Director of The Center for Love and Sex in New York City, and host of the web series Sex Esteem.
“Unfortunately, our society does a masterful job making most women feel that something is wrong with their bodies (at every weight), but certainly heavier women get the brunt of body shame,” says Cooper.
This is why she encourages women to do as much physical activity as possible during their pregnancy that makes them feel both “embodied and strong.” Not only does exercise lift your mood, says Cooper, but it also keeps you in shape and connected to your body as you prepare for labor.
“I also invite them to say three positive things about their body while standing nude in front of a mirror each day to help battle the negative voices that continue to try and make them feel less than or unworthy of sexual pleasure,” she adds.
Know if you're at risk, and talk to your doctor if you have any concerns.
According to Dr. Joseph Chappelle, a Board Certified Assistant Professor of OB-GYN at Stony Brook University in New York and the creator of The OB-GYN Podcast, there are a few circumstances where couples might need to abstain.
The most common is placenta previa, a condition where the placenta is partially or completely blocking the cervix.
“When this happens, there is a concern that any movement of the cervix (such as with intercourse) may cause the placenta to detach,” explains Dr. Chapelle. While 1% of all pregnant women will have placenta previa, the majority of cases resolve themselves by 28 to 32 weeks. Once this happens, your doctor should give you the go-ahead to resume sex.
Another reason to abstain would be if you’re at high risk of preterm labor for any reason, such as having a short cervix. (“The thought here is that manipulation of the cervix may bring on labor,” explains Dr. Chapelle.) The March of Dimes also notes multiple pregnancies (of twins, triplets, or more) might also be a reason to abstain, as well as having had miscarriages in the past.
The bottom line? Talk to your healthcare provider about whether you’re at risk, and keep the lines of communication open throughout your pregnancy if you feel any pain at all or see signs of bleeding that concern you. And as always, remember to protect yourself against STIs (sexually transmitted infections).
Sex was a fun and natural part of your relationship before, and there’s no reason it shouldn’t be now — especially before that kiddo arrives and you really don’t have time for it.

10 Oral Sex Tips to Make It More Enjoyable for Everyone

Whether you participate in oral sex as foreplay before penetrative sex, or as the main event in your sexual adventure, it can be an incredibly satisfying and pleasurable act to engage in with your partner. Some have argued that oral sex is actually more intimate than penetrative sex, because it requires you to get close to the most personal part of someone’s body. It’s not every day, after all, that you have your face in someone’s lap.
But there’s something deeper than that, too. Unless you’re participating in mutual oral sex, like in a 69 position, it’s typical that only one person is getting off at a time. That can be a seriously vulnerable position for anyone to be in — whether they’re giving or receiving. And since it’s such a vulnerable position, insecurities abound. How do you tell your partner what you like? And how do you figure out if your partner is liking what you’re doing to them?

With a few simple tips, however, you can master the oral sex game. Ahead, we lay out a handful of tips that will turn any sack session into a fun, and steamy, experience.
1. Consent Is The Most Important Thing, Period.
Before you get down to anything, it’s important to remember the golden rule: No sex without consent. Yes, even oral sex. Some people are just flat-out uninterested in receiving, or giving, oral sex — and that’s completely fine. It’s important to respect your partner’s wishes above all else. So no pushing heads down and no begging. If the answer is no, respect it and move on.
2. Have A Conversation Before.
The best time to have a chat about what you like and dislike about sex, oral or penetrative, is before sex — when your clothes are still on. This allows you and your partner to have a discussion that isn’t coercive or cloaked in any kind of pressure. Go over what you like, what you dislike, any fantasies you’re interested in, or anything that is an absolute no-go. That way, when you guys are in the heat of the moment, everyone knows the rules.
3. Don’t Be Ashamed Of Inexperience.

It’s totally fine to not know what you like or to not know how to have oral sex. In fact, some of the most satisfying sexual experiences are exploratory ones. Be open to one another about your experience, so that everyone can be on the same page. And don’t feel like you have to dive in to the deep end right off the bat.
4. Start Slow.
Especially if you’re new, or you’re the one who is giving the oral. It’s hard for us to respond to direct, intense stimuli right off the bat. So tickle and tease a little bit. Maybe lick the head of your partner’s penis before you take him fully into your mouth. Or use your fingers on your partner’s clit before you start licking and sucking. Slow and steady wins every race — even when it comes to sex.
5. Listen And Look For Non-Verbal Cues.
Sometimes, in the heat of the moment, it can be hard for the person receiving the oral sex to speak up about what they’re feeling. That’s why it’s so important for the person giving the oral to listen and look for non-verbal cues. If your partner looks fearful or uncomfortable, stop and ask if they’re enjoying themselves, and then reassess from there. But if they’re moaning or breathing heavily? Keep doing what you’re doing.
6. Use Your Hands, Too.
If your partner has a penis, work their shaft in tandem with your mouth sucking on their head. It creates a longer surface of stimulation, which can be incredibly tantalizing to some. If your partner has a clit and a vulva, don’t be afraid to rub their clit with your thumb in between sucks. Or, insert a few fingers into their vagina while you’re sucking their clit, and massage their g-spot. It’s the spongy membrane on the inside of their vagina, directly under the mons. Use two fingers in a come-hither motion to slowly work this sensitive spot.
7. Moisture Is Your Friend.
Whether it be spit or lubricant, use a lot of it. Nothing kills the mood like sandpaper friction during sex.

8. Don’t Forget To Add Some Variety.
No one like the same movement over and over again. So, once your partner is properly worked up, change your technique a bit. Take your partner's penis deeply into your throat (if you’re comfortable) and then quickly change to short, head-centric sucking. If your partner has a clitoris, alternate between tickling the sensitive spot with the tip of your tongue and sucking it. These variations in technique make for a seriously toe-curling experience.
9. Don’t Be Afraid To Give Directions.
Any partner who you have going down on you should be a partner you trust to take your directions as an adult — period. So don’t be afraid to tell your partner if something just isn’t working for you. You can do this in a sexy way so as not to break the mood. “Suck a little bit harder, baby” sounds better than “You’re not sucking hard enough.”
10. Remember — Orgasm Is Not The Goal.
In general, we all tend to be a little orgasm-obsessed. Oral sex is a great way to pleasure your partner without worrying about getting them off. So focus on the journey, and not the destination. Oral sex shouldn’t be a race to the finish, after all. Use it as a way to learn about your partner’s pleasure — and your own. It will make for a much more delightful experience. And if you do orgasm? Well, that’s just a cherry on top.

Taste of semen

1) Dear Alice,
I'm in a new relationship and would like to perform oral sex with my partner, but never have experienced my partner actually coming in my mouth. I know this sounds silly, but what does cum taste like and how much is there normally? From conversations I have had with my boyfriend, he would prefer me to "swallow." I'm just not sure I can do that, but would like to at least try, but I don't want to disappoint him by not knowing what to expect.
2) Hello Alice,
I am a 23-year-old vegetarian male, though I eat fish and milk products. I would like to know how I can improve the taste of my sperm, as my girlfriend greatly dislikes the taste. I am interested to know how diet and exercise can improve the taste. Your reply would be greatly appreciated, as this is a topic that is difficult to talk to health professionals about.

Dear Readers,
 Baby batter, jizz, cum, love juice... there are just as many opinions on semen, the fluid in which sperm are found, as there are slang words for it. The taste of, and the taste for, cum is unique for each person. While no definitive link between diet, physical activity, and the taste of semen has been scientifically established, there’s plenty of anecdotal evidence for you to test. That being said, research indicates that diet can impact sperm health. As to your question about the amount of semen, the average amount of ejaculate is about a teaspoon. For more details on that, see the answer to Produce more cum?. You might also want to consider alternative ways to experience physical intimacy that make both you and your partner excited (more on that later).

 Diet can change how well sperm swim, but can it take the funk out of spunk? Some people claim that eating (or drinking the juice of) certain fruits and veggies, such as pineapple, papaya, and citrus fruits, makes cum more palatable. On the flip side, some foods may have the potential to make jizz less appetizing — these include asparagus, broccoli, cauliflower, onions, and garlic. Red meat, cheese, coffee, alcohol, and cigarettes are also among the products that reportedly make cum taste worse. In addition to diet, you can see if physical activity could influence taste; to test this, sample semen before and after physical activity to see if there’s a discernible difference. Remember, regardless of diet or physical activity patterns, semen (like breath and sweat) has a taste and smell all its own, so any food or physical activity modifications may only have a short-term effect.
 Interestingly, even if these lifestyle changes don’t jazz up the taste of jizz, they do have the potential to improve the quality and quantity of the sperm within the semen, as well as the overall health of the person. Studies show diets high in dairy, sugar, processed meats, and red meat can negatively impact sperm motility, mobility, and count. Likewise, high alcohol consumption may negatively impact sperm quality. So, for the sake of sperm’s health (and potentially taste), it may be best to stick with a diet rich in fruits, vegetables, and lean proteins.
 You might also consider having a discussion with your partner to see if there are changes to your sex life you both would be willing to explore that have less to do with oral sex. For example, maybe you or your partner would prefer ejaculation somewhere other than in the mouth, even if the penis is orally brought to orgasm, often referred to as a blow job. You could also try using flavored condoms or flavored lube to make fellatio more enjoyable. In the meantime, try thinking about the fun and pleasurable activities that you already do together with your partner, rather than focusing on what is distasteful or unknown to either of you.
 Here’s to a tasty ending! Bon appetit,

I orgasm all the time — Help!

Dear Alice,
I have a really big problem. I have orgasms all the time! Some people might like this, but I don't. And, it's really embarrassing when I get one in the middle of class. It's not because I get turned on, it just happens. If someone sits on my lap, I get one! It's very embarrassing, and I don't know why it happens. Also, my vagina sometimes hurts and itches and sometimes has a foul odor. I want to go to the gyno to get this checked out, but I'm afraid I'll have an orgasm while the doctor is examining me! Please help! I'm too embarrassed to tell anyone about this.

Dear Reader,
You’re not alone in experiencing orgasms (a release of the build-up of sexual tension) or other symptoms of sexual arousal even without being “turned on.” In fact, these symptoms may be a sign of persistent genital arousal disorder (PGAD), sometimes referred to as persistent sexual arousal syndrome (PSAS). PGAD is a disorder primarily experienced by those assigned female at birth (although those assigned male at birth may also experience it), in which people have sudden and frequent genital arousal that is different from sexual arousal associated with desire. PGAD is sometimes confused with hypersexuality, but it’s worth highlighting that these are two separate phenomena. While hypersexuality is considered excessive desire with or without persistent genital arousal, PGAD is defined as persistent arousal or orgasm that’s unrelated to sexual desire. PGAD is often triggered by nonsexual stimulation (such as someone sitting on your lap) or have no apparent cause at all. To answer your question about vaginal itching and odor, you may want to see a health care provider, as pain, itching, or unusual odors may be the result of an infection (more on this in a bit). Read on for more information, tips for managing your symptoms, and about ways health care providers may be able to help with the symptoms you're experiencing.

This disorder is associated with the following symptoms:
•The bodily responses that are associated with sexual arousal last for hours or days and they don't go away on their own.
•Even after one or more orgasms, genital arousal doesn't go away completely.
•The genital arousal isn't wanted and intrusive to the person experiencing it.
•Activities that are nonsexual, such as bumpy car rides, can trigger genital arousal or orgasm.
•The experience causes feelings of distress.
Unfortunately, there are only theories (both physical and psychological) about the potential causes of PGAD, making treatment challenging. Just because there’s no causal understanding of or traditional treatment for PGAD, that's not to say symptom management is a lost cause. There are ways by which you can try to address the orgasms, such as monitoring the onset to investigate potentially avoidable triggers. For example, if you think tight clothing could be a trigger, consider wearing looser bottoms, dresses, or skirts. Being able to predict when an orgasm might occur may also allow you to be prepared, or excuse yourself to somewhere more private, such as the bathroom. You mentioned that you orgasm if someone sits on your lap. Have you considered letting them know that you find this to be uncomfortable and prefer that they sit somewhere else? Another option is to do Kegel exercises, in which you relax your pelvic muscles and then release any tension as you notice it building. Keep in mind that these tips may require some trial and error — consider taking some time to figure out which, if any, will work for you.
In addition to some of the do-it-yourself options for symptom management, it’s good to talk with a health care provider for additional insight into and assistance with your symptoms. Medical professionals may be able to offer a diagnosis or recommend a specialist to address potential underlying causes of PGAD, and mental health professionals may be able to assist with the frustration and embarrassment those with PGAD often experience. The idea of consulting with a professional may be distressing, but ideally, you'd leave with more information than you have now and increasing your quality of life. They can also help with your concerns regarding vaginal pain, itching, and odor, as these symptoms could be signs of an infection and may in fact be unrelated to your frequent orgasms. While potentially uncomfortable to discuss with a professional, it’s worth noting that many patients pass gas, urinate, orgasm, and have erections during physical examinations. Providers know that it’s impossible to control certain bodily functions, but letting them know about your frequent orgasms can prepare them, if you experience one during your visit.
Best of luck on your quest for relief,
Alice!
