Orgasm control refers to the practice of managing or delaying the climax during sexual activity. This can involve techniques that help individuals or couples prolong pleasure and enhance the overall sexual experience. It is often used to increase intimacy and satisfaction between partners. Many people explore orgasm control as part of their sexual repertoire, sometimes incorporating elements of kink or BDSM. Techniques may include edging, where a person approaches orgasm but stops before reaching it, or using specific breathing methods to maintain control. This practice can lead to heightened sensations and more intense orgasms when they eventually occur.
