Sexual stimulation and sexual intercourse are great ways to achieve an intense amount of pleasure and satisfaction that more often than not end in some just as intense orgasms. And all people love to engage in such experiences every now and then, even if couples tend to do so more regularly for obvious reasons. But while we know the outcome of our sexual encounters and the emotional aspect of it, like the effect it has on out intimacy and relationship, we might not be aware of what happens to our body during such an amazing experience. The human nature and anatomy is quite fascinating, and it has been subject of studies for many scientists along our history. Some tried several experiments to understand our limits as human beings while others were more concerned about understanding the way our body works and when it comes to sex, it can go through impressive changes.
1. Our brain is very active
Sex drive starts in the brain, this seems to be the conclusion that many scientists reached during their researches. We tend to call that “being in the mood” for sex, but what it actually is, is an amount of hormonal and chemicals that release such a strong desire. And the process continues during the entire sexual encounter. Our brain hosts receptors for estrogen and testosterone which are important hormones for our bodies and sex life. During sexual intercourse, our brains stays stimulated by the release of these hormones as well as others that maintain the sexual pleasure and eventually lead us to sexual satisfaction. Adrenaline has an important part in the process as well and our brain administrates and manages it too during sexual encounters. And such mental processes that we might not even be aware of happen during masturbation when we use our favorite dildo or vibrator as well as during sexual intercourse or anal stimulation with our favorite butt plug.
2. Heart beats faster
The increased level of adrenaline has a direct effect on our heart rate as well. It makes our heart beat faster and us get more excited during sexual intercourse and stimulation because both aspects of our sex life can be equally intense. Blood needs to circulate faster to maintain the sexual action and this process mixed with the increased emotional aspect tends to make our heart feel like it is going to break out of our chest. But pace yourself and find a comfortable rhythm that you enjoy so you don’t overwork your heart so much. Even if this is a natural process, for people with a cardiac condition it can be quiet challenging so, it is better to try to control it. The heart tends to beat even faster during sexual intercourse than during masturbation and this happens because the increased amount of feelings that we experience when we have a sex scene with another partner. When we are masturbating we tend to be more in control of our actions and even our emotions and because of this, our heart is not so exposed to surprising emotions that apparently come out of nowhere.
3. Breasts are swelling, and vaginas get lubricated
Women have certain particularities that they deal with during their sexual encounters and they are all in the name of an increased sexual energy. Their breasts are generally sensitive but during sex they become even more sensitive and even aroused. This is why nipple stimulation is a great idea if you want to increase sexual pleasure. Use a pair of nipple clamps during your sexual encounters and enjoy the results along with your partner. Another effect is that a good sexual stimulation will not require the use of a lubricant since a woman’s body will naturally lubricate her vagina and get it ready for the amazing sexual adventure that is about to start. Women seem to have a slight advantage when it comes to sexual pleasure and their body knows how to explore it!
