Sex: How It Works in Females
Stage One: Arousal
Blood vessels in a woman’s genitals dilate as she becomes aroused. Blood flows faster in the vaginal walls, causing fluid to pass through. Vaginal lubrication comes from this source, making the vagina feel moist or wet.
This increased blood supply causes the external genitalia to swell. Parts of the external genitalia include vaginal opening, inner and outer labia, and the clitoris.
The pulse quickens, and the blood pressure increases. It is common for women to look red or feel “flushed”, especially on their chests and necks during arousal. The dilation of the blood vessels causes this.
Stage Two: Plateau
The lower two-thirds of the vagina become swollen and firm as the blood flow reaches a limit, and it begins to contract as the woman experiences an orgasm. This is known as introitus or orgasmic platform.
As a result of women’s breasts becoming larger, blood flow to the areola increases, making nipples appear less erect.
During orgasm, the clitoris pulls back towards the pubic bone. It would seem as if the clitoris has disappeared. This phase requires continual stimulation to build enough sexual arousal for orgasm.
Stage Three: Orgasm
An orgasm is characterized by the release of sexual tension after a period of build-up, which is accompanied by contractions of the genital muscles, including the introitus (0.8 seconds apart).
Orgasms in women do not result in the same refractory period as they do for men. It is possible to have another orgasm if a woman is stimulated again.
Sex: how it works in women? They don’t always experience an orgasm whenever they have sex. Foreplay portrays a significant role in triggering an orgasm for most women. Foreplay may include stimulating the clitoris or stroking the breast and other erogenous zones.
Stage Four: Resolution
During resolution, a woman’s body gradually returns to normal. Swelling in the genital area reduces, breathing slows down and the heart rate becomes normal.
