What could this be? I know she wouldn’t taste anything if I ejaculated way down the throat. But given the sensations that I felt I think something might have happened differently. I think it was an inward or non-ejaculatory orgasm. Could it be?

A: Thank you for your question. There are several possible explanations for your experience. It is possible that you experienced a full body orgasm without ejaculation. Often men who report having full body orgasm state that they are still full of erotic desire and are able to continue their sexual activity. Some men work hard to learn how to experience a full body orgasm without ejaculation. So is that is what happen to you consider yourself gifted.

It also possible that you had a retrograde ejaculation. Retrograde ejaculation occurs when semen enters the bladder instead of emerging through the penis during orgasm. Although you still reach sexual climax, you may ejaculate very little or no semen. This is called a dry orgasm. Retrograde ejaculation isn’t harmful, but it can cause male infertility.

Retrograde ejaculation can be caused by medications, such as high blood pressure or mood disorder medications, health conditions, such as diabetes, or surgeries that affect the nerves or muscles that control the bladder opening. If retrograde ejaculation is caused by a drug you’re taking, stopping the drug may be an effective treatment. For retrograde ejaculation due to a health condition or as a result of surgery, treatment with drugs may restore normal ejaculation and fertility. But treatment for retrograde ejaculation is generally only needed to restore fertility. Some men experience retrograde ejaculations only once in awhile most of their ejaculations emerge through the penis.

It is also possible that your girlfriend did not notice or taste your ejaculation due to something she ate or drank prior that had desensitize her mouth, or it was in her throat as you suggested

A: You said that you have tried masturbating, which is a really good way to find out what feels good and what doesn’t. What kind of techniques are you using? Have you tried using lubrication? A lot of people find clitoral stimulation can be really pleasing, directly or indirectly (touching or rubbing it with your hand and some lube, rubbing that general area with a soft object, or using a vibrator or shower massager). Many people especially find it easy to climax using a vibrator. You could also try a back massager, which can be found at any pharmacy or drugstore.

It can be helpful to experiment on your own to see what you may like, and then later try it out with a partner. Make sure that you talk to your partner before and during sex, and don’t be afraid to tell them if something feels good or bad. Also, be sure to go slowly and use enough lube. Lubrication can make a huge difference in how pleasurable sex may feel.

Keep in mind that not everyone enjoys oral sex, and people’s tastes and preferences definitely vary. It doesn’t hurt to try, but don’t get discouraged if you’re not loving the sensations.

Lastly, it’s probably a good idea to go to your doctor for an annual exam. They can make sure that everything is working just fine, and answer any other questions you may have.

Second question is that I use the water (in the shower) to masturbate – sort of like in the jaccuzzi. I like the water pressure but I have heard that by doing that I am putting my future pregnancy at risk since I am not sure if there is water going inside me or not.. it’s on the surface.

Will you please let me know if what I am doing is risky.

A: In response to your first question, many people experience pain, tingling and/or numbness in the extremities after orgasm. Some people experience this every time while others occasionally or never feel it. If the pain really bothers you, you could try various relaxing positions, in which you aren’t actively engaging your arm. Such as lying on your back or side without putting weight on that arm and see if that helps. It also might be useful to consciously focus on keeping that arm relaxed during orgasm. If this continues or is acute, consult a physician.

To answer your second question, using water is a great way to masturbate and it will not effect your future fertility. The water is entering your vagina but it can not travel all the way up to your ovaries, therefore it will not cause reduced-fertility. Olympic swimmers spend most of their lives in the water and are able to get pregnant without problems.

A: Thanks for your question. You wrote to us that you have yet to have an orgasm with your boyfriend. Orgasms can be pretty elusive, and it is not uncommon for women to have difficulty attaining an orgasm through intercourse alone.

The primary thing to consider is whether you’ve had an orgasm on your own yet (through masturbation). If you have not, familiarizing yourself with the sexual response of your own body can help you build the skills to have orgasms through sex with a partner. For tips on women’s self-pleasure, we suggest a book called Tickle Your Fancy by Sadie Allison.

Once familiar with your body’s sexual response, a few things can aid you in having an orgasm through sex with your boyfriend. One of the most helpful things can be foreplay, as female bodies sometimes need a little more time to become totally aroused than male bodies. Foreplay can include having him give you oral sex, kissing, or having him massage your clitoris before (and/or while) you have sex.

Additionally, using a vibrators on your clitoris during sex helps some women have orgasms, as does experimenting with different sexual positions.

A: It sounds as if your girlfriend is getting highly sensitized from  having multiple orgasms.  It is fairly common for women to become  highly or overly sensitized as they have multiple orgasms.  Unfortunately there isn’t anything you can do to make her not want to stop if she has become that sensitized.When she has reached this point it may be time to think about other sexual activities that you may be able to enjoy together.  Maybe she would like to be touched in other ways?  Perhaps she would able to stimulate you orally or with her hand?  You may also want to ask her what she needs when she reaches that  point. Only she can let you know if it is time to stop completely or  just try something else for a while.

A: Have you ever had an orgasm while masturbating? If so, you might want to think about recreating that sensation while having sex with your boyfriend. However, do not be closed off to the idea that you can have an orgasm in more than one position with varying types of stimulation. If you have not ever had an orgasm, even while masturbating, you may want to think about what kinds of mental or emotional blocks you have around letting go.

If there is this one particularly great position that seems to work for both of you, but your boyfriend always orgasms first, you can either try recreating this position with a dildo, or you can work on having him hold out a little longer before he has his orgasm. There are many different suggested techniques for guys to last longer, but different things work for different people. Perhaps he can masturbate a few hours before you have sex and that might help him last longer. Try looking up other techniques online if you’re still curious about that.

As for talking dirty, we don’t have any specific lines or phrases that we think you should say. But, if you want to be prepared, think about some things in advance and write them down for yourself. There are also some suggestions at Sex Info 101. Also, you can look for erotic stories as those might give you some good ideas. Then, when the situation arises again you’ll have some things in mind to say.
