Orgasmus
An orgasm is the peak of sexual arousal, characterized by intense subjective pleasure and a rapid sequence of physical responses. It typically involves rhythmic contractions of the pelvic floor muscles, along with increases in heart rate, breathing, and skin flushing. It can occur during partnered sex or solo activity and is not guaranteed in every encounter or to every person.

Sex differences are variable. The typical male pattern features a single orgasm followed by a refractory period
Variability and disorders: Some people experience difficulty achieving orgasm (anorgasmia) or unusually intense or frequent orgasmic
