The human body is always in a metabolic cycle and goes through numerous cycles. Some of them are common, such as the sleep cycle and the menstrual cycle, but there is another cycle that you may not be familiar with. That is, the sexual response cycle. What is the sexual response cycle? In this article, we discuss what the sexual response cycle is, how it benefits your body, problems that can occur with the sexual response cycle, and how to fix them.
1. What is the sexual response cycle?
According to scientific research, the sexual response cycle is “a model of the physical and emotional changes that occur when engaging in sexual activity”.
It means that what the human body brings when participating in sexual activities is not just ordinary pleasurable pleasure, but that the body produces different emotional responses and physical sensations before, during, and after sex, which stimulate the body to produce hormones for sexual desire. This process, is a sexual response cycle. By understanding how this process changes, it can help us to quickly understand our body and our sexual pleasure.
2. The four phases of the sexual response cycle
The sexual response cycle divided into four main physical and emotional phases. We need to understand these four phases and acquire some knowledge to help better explore our own bodies. However, please keep in mind that the duration of each phase varies from person to person, and the overall results of the study cannot indicate how well you perform sexually as an individual.
Sexual Desire
The first stage is the desire of the human body. Desire is the nature of a person to want something or something in a particular situation. In the sexual response cycle, it is expressed when a person wants to have sex with another human being.
When a person develops an uncontrollable desire, their muscle tension increases, their nervous system becomes active and the body is in a state of arousal. At the same time the heart rate and respiration rate will increase and the skin will gradually become flushed. Physiological parts also react, for example, women experience enlarged breasts and automatic secretion of nectar from the clitoris. Men, on the other hand, experience swollen nipples and erect penis.
Sexual Arousal
The second stage is sexual arousal. The next step that takes place after creating physical desire that the body will be aroused by a physical response, referred to as sexual arousal. A feeling that people experience when engaging in sexual activity, sexual arousal is an important process by which people are able to experience sexual pleasure. Sexual arousal in men mainly reflected in the penis is full of blood, normal erection, the body produces physical desire, with the process of sexual arousal continues to be developed, the body’s semen will gradually accumulate, become more. For women, who enter the stage of sexual arousal, their vagina will continue to swell and even darken in color due to increased blood flow. The clitoris also becomes very sensitive to touch.
Orgasm.
The third stage is orgasm. This stage is the shortest of the four because the orgasm itself lasts only a few seconds. It’s like a balloon being slowly filled with water, and after reaching its maximum capacity, the balloon explodes and the water flows out. Orgasm is like that, when you climax with each other, all the semen that the man injected into the woman’s uterus will flow out in a few seconds. Orgasm is the process of pleasure building up until you can no longer contain it and then release it. After orgasm is when you are most physically and mentally relaxed with each other and you are satisfied with the physical and physiological pleasure.
Changes during a normal orgasm are characterized by involuntary contractions or twitches of the body’s muscles. Blood pressure, heart rate and respiration are at their highest levels. After orgasm, the female vaginal muscles contract and the male ejaculates.
The Nursing Phase
The Nursing Phase is where the body takes the time to release all the fluids that have built up in the first three phases, calm the swelling in the genitals and other erogenous zones, and put your mind in a state of rest and calm, which will leave the body fully nourished and cared for.
Problems that can occur in the sexual response cycle
Problems can’t be avoided; after all, everyone can’t guarantee that they’ll be sexually healthy all the time.Problems in men are mainly erectile dysfunction, premature ejaculation or the inability to ejaculate at all. In women, the patient usually suffers from low libido and lack of interest in sexual activity.
Cure
First of all, communication is an inevitable first step, you need to speak to each other about your needs and the changes you want the other person to make. Next maintain an optimistic and positive outlook on life, this will keep you from being in a negative state when dealing with sexual problems. Finally, find out what the problem is and try to solve it. For example, men with erection problems can use an automatic masturbator to try to arouse their body’s desire. Women, on the other hand, can try the rose vibrator, which are clitoral stimulators that help women to re-energize their clitoris to be active. If that doesn’t solve the problem, seek the help of a hospital professional or psychotherapist.
Conclusion
Understanding the sexual response cycle allows us to gain a deeper understanding of our bodies and how we derive pleasure during sex so that we can look for ways to better increase our body’s erotic enjoyment. Once understood, utilizing these phases will ultimately reward us with better experienced sex!
