A new study has revealed that women typically experience one of three different types of orgasm.
Lead researcher Professor James Pfaus told the Daily Mail that by measuring pelvic floor contractions in female volunteers, researchers have determined that when women climax, their muscles contract in one of three patterns: a ‘wave’, a ‘volcano’ or an ‘avalanche’.
“The wave looks like undulations or successive contractions of tension and release at orgasm,” Professor Pfaus says.
“The avalanche rides on a higher pelvic floor tension with contractions that lower the tension downward during orgasm.”
“The volcano rides on a lower pelvic floor tension but then explodes into tension and release during orgasm.”
Do any of these descriptions ring true to you? Do you agree with their categories?
