Most of us know all about vaginal, clitoral or anal orgasms, and hopefully have already experienced them. But the breast orgasm (breast-gasm) or even nipple orgasm is still relatively unknown. At least, we certainly didn’t know much about it! By touching and stimulating the nipples you can climax – yes, you heard that right. And it makes complete sense that stimulating the nipples can really get you excited. We did some research for you to find out whether it’s worth giving it a go.
The breasts: erogenous zones
If you think about it, it’s obvious that breasts play an important role in getting you aroused. They are special erogenous zones for both men and women, and react to touch and excitement by becoming erect. We talk about having a nipple erection. And a study has even discovered that stimulating the nipples activates the same areas of the brain as when the vagina or clitoris are stimulated. Women’s breasts are also directly connected to the vagina through nerve impulses and hormones. So, what exactly do you have to do to have a breast orgasm?
How to have a nipple orgasm / breast-gasm
Let’s get one thing straight for starters: not every woman is able to have a nipple orgasm, as the sensitivity of women’s nipples varies, depending on their cycle. And of course, every woman is different when it comes to their ability to have an orgasm clitorally, vaginally and anally. The same also goes for nipple sensitivity and the associated ability to reach a breast orgasm. But it’s definitely worth trying, so here are a couple of tips for you:
- Fingers, tongue, mouth – when it comes to a breast orgasm, if it works for you, then go for it! Perhaps start by touching the breasts. You could even roll the nipples between two fingers. And then eventually let the tongue or mouth take over. Try kissing, breathing, licking, or even nibbling.
- Ice cubes or a massage oil can stimulate the blood flow and make your breasts and nipples even more sensitive to stimulation. Using ice cubes to switch between warm and cold is often very exciting.
- To take the whole thing up another notch, there are also special sex toys, such as nipple clamps or nipple suckers which can help stimulate the breasts/nipples.
- Just don’t expect to be satisfied quickly. The breast-gasm sometimes takes a little bit longer than a clitoral, anal or vaginal orgasm, but it can be worth it. We’re moving into the realms of slow sex or mindful sex. So, give yourself plenty of time 😉
Some more important information:
- The route to your own sexual satisfaction always goes hand in hand with self-satisfaction/masturbation and self-pleasure. If you know exactly how you need/want your breasts to be touched to excite you, then you can tell your partner. So, try it out a few times yourself and get to know your own desires and preferences even better.
- Women are frequently particularly sensitive around their breasts during their period, and therefore also around the nipples. So, if it feels good for you, why not try to have an orgasm around that time of the month? You won’t just find it relaxing, it can also help with menstrual cramps. Have you ever heard of “menstrubation”?
- Combining breast stimulation and vaginal or clitoral stimulation is often the best way to have an orgasm. The route is actually the goal and there is definitely not just the one route.
- Incidentally: when it comes to nipple orgasms or even breast orgasms, the size of the female breasts can actually make a difference. And in this case, less really is more. With small breasts, the lack of fatty tissue means that the nerve endings are closer together, which often means they are more sensitive for a breast orgasm.
Nipple orgasm in men
Up to this point, we’ve just assumed that women can climax if you touch the nipples in the right way. But what about men?
The nipples are also an erogenous zone for men, and some experts say that men can find them even more sensitive than women, as they are rarely touched there. And of course, men’s nipples do not have any other role. So, men, it’s worth giving your nipples a bit more attention to see how far you get. You never know, nipple simulation might be another way for men to orgasm.
As we’ve said, there are such things as breastgasms/nipple orgasms, but everyone is different and whether or not this kind of stimulation gets you to orgasm quickly or not at all varies from person to person. But either way, it’s great fun as foreplay to see how sensitive your partner’s nipples are. We suggest you give it a go, and have fun experimenting!
