A STRONGER ORGASM by tonight

Oh yes, yes, YES! Reaching climax is officially good for us. Not only does sexual satisfaction enhance emotional connection with a partner, it can also improve your health – in fact, regular orgasms could lower the risk of high blood pressure and heart disease, says research*. But despite these mind and body benefits of the ‘big O’, women are four times** less likely to orgasm during a sex than a man. Feeling unfulfilled? Here’s how to ensure you sizzle, not fizzle, between the sheets...

Work your pelvic floor

Weakened muscles in the pelvic area can cause a loss in sensation, but it takes women, on average, seven years to seek help for it, says research by Elvie. ‘Learning to control your pelvic floor can help you climax,’ says sex and relationship expert Annabelle Knight. Tone up by doing 100-200 pelvic-floor contractions daily. Just imagine you are trying to stop passing wind, then a wee, then draw these two sensations in together.

Ignore the housework

Pressures with work or family will directly affect your ability to climax. ‘The biggest psychological barrier to orgasm is stress – it’s a sexual poison,’ says Annabelle. ‘Timing is key, so choose a time to get intimate when you’re not rushing around.’

Leave your socks on

It might sound strange, but keeping your feet warm may help increase your pleasure levels. When wearing socks, 80% of couples were able to reach orgasm, compared to just 50% without socks, according to a small study at the University of Groningen.
