orgasmic disorder

Definitions
Inability to achieve an orgasm after entering the excitement phase and receiving adequate sexual stimulation. ”Understanding abnormal behavior”. David Sue, Derald Wing Sue, Stanley Sue. The orgasmic disorders are divided in three: - Female orgasmic disorder (formerly inhibited Female Orgasm), in which the essential feature is a persistent or recurrent delay in, or absence of, orgasm following a normal sexual excitement phase. Primary orgasmic dysfunction is considered relatively common in women: approximately 10 percent of all women have never achieved and orgasm. - Male Orgasmic Disorder (formerly inhibited Male Orgasm), in which the essential feature is a persistent or recurrent delay in, or absence of, orgasm following a normal sexual excitement phase. Some males with this disorder can reach coital orgasm but only after very prolonged and intense noncoital stimulation. Some can ejaculate only from masturbation. An even subgroup have experienced orgasm only at the moment of waking from an erotic dream. - Premature Ejaculation, in which the essential feature is the persistent or recurrent onset of orgasm and ejaculation with minimal sexual stimulation before, on, or shortly after penetration and before the person wishes it. The majority of males with this disorder can delay orgasm during self-masturbation for a considerably longer time than during coitus. The clinician must take into account factors that affect duration of the excitement phase, such as age, novelty of the sexual partner or situation, and recent frequency of sexual activity.
