If you’ve ever struggled to reach orgasm, felt like it takes forever or requires a specific set of circumstances, or it’s just entirely unattainable, you’re not alone.

Anorgasmia is a topic that doesn’t get enough attention, partly because it feels personal, and partly because a lot of women have quietly assumed that this is “just how it is” for them. Difficulty with orgasm is common, often has identifiable and multifactorial causes, and in many cases, is something that can improve over time.

In this blog post, we’re going to dive into the prevalence of anorgasmia, some common causes of orgasm challenges, as well as talk through the female arousal cycle and your pelvic floor’s role in orgasms.

When people think about urinary incontinence and pelvic floor issues, they imagine pregnant people, postpartum parents, and older folks. But that’s not the whole story. High school and college athletes here in Austin, TX and across the country experience leakage at surprisingly high rates.

For these girls and young women, urinary incontinence is not just a physical symptom. Girls and women with leakage experience higher rates of depression and anxiety, as well as challenges in body image and self-esteem.
