Orgasmic dysfunction is a condition that occurs when someone has difficulty reaching orgasm. This difficulty occurs even when they’re sexually aroused and there’s sufficient sexual stimulation. When this condition occurs in women, it’s known as female orgasmic dysfunction(FOD).
Orgasms are intense feelings of release during sexual stimulation. They can vary in intensity, duration, and frequency. Orgasms can occur with little sexual stimulation, but sometimes much more stimulation is necessary. Many women have difficulty reaching orgasm with a partner, even after ample sexual stimulation. Orgasmic dysfunction is also known as anorgasmia or female orgasmic disorder.

Causes of Female Orgasmic Disorder?
Female Orgasmic Disorder may stem from physical, psychological, or relationship issues. As women age, their estrogen and testosterone levels decrease, which can lead to a decline in orgasm intensity.
Psychologically speaking, women may be more likely to experience FOD if they feel guilty about having sex, struggle with depression or anxiety, are under a lot of stress, or have experienced sexual or emotional abuse. Finally, a woman’s relationship with her sexual partner(s) can contribute to FOD if the relationship in question involves unresolved issues, a lack of mutual attraction, poor communication, distrust, or past experiences of infidelity or abuse.
