Did you know that for some people, nipple stimulation can lead to a super orgasm? We're talking nipple orgasms, and trust us, it's worth it. Why? It's simple actually: Exploring our bodies to discover new sources of pleasure is so special.
"The phenomenon known as the nipple orgasm is a powerful wave of pleasure that goes through the whole body, caused by the stimulation of the nipples," says psychologist Nazanin Moali.
When the nipples are stimulated, tension and pleasure within the body begins to build. Laurie Mintz, a sex therapist explains that for some people, the nipples can be enough to get you to a big O orgasm, then a combination of nipple stimulation + internal stimulation increases the intensity of the orgasm.
Nipple orgasms happen because our brains and bodies are fascinatingly connected. Studies have shown that nipple stimulation goes directly to the area of ??the brain that senses contact with the genitals. This means that the brain can interpret nipple stimulation the same as genital stimulation.
The areas of the body that give us pleasure are the erogenous zones. An erogenous zone is basically an area of ??the body that has nerve endings that, when stimulated, create a chain reaction by sending signals to various parts of the nervous system, including the genitals.
