We are often led to believe that male pleasure exists only in a single form, namely the all-important ejaculation, which signals the end of intercourse. Well, as you can imagine, this is not the case. Especially when it comes to crossing that finish line. In fact,there are no less than 5 types of orgasm for you gentlemen!
The 5 types of male orgasm
- Ejaculatory orgasm
Slight muscle spasms, expulsion of semen - this is the best-known male orgasm. While it's a common misconception that this is the only form of orgasm possible, it's certainly the most widespread. It occurs after the penis has been simulated, whether through fellatio, penetration or a little masturbation.
- Prostate orgasm
As you can imagine, this orgasm takes another route, through the prostate, via the anus. Sexologist Jean Claude Piquard, quoted in Santé Magazine, testifies:
The male prostate is located under the bladder, around the urethra. It can only be accessed anally. The prostate is an erogenous zone, sometimes referred to as the P-spot, and its stimulation with a finger, penis or sex toy provides pleasure, which varies for each individual, but is often closely linked to the erotic situation.
He continues: 'One man testifies that it's always amazing to see himself ejaculate without any stimulation of the penis.
This practice is also commonly used in medical settings with quadriplegics who have an insensitive penis, to obtain sperm for later procreation. Lastly, women also have prostates!
"A penis orgasm with ejaculation feels like a period. It’s an ending. My first prostate orgasm of the night is usually just a start.” This is so true! https://t.co/pU4odyadtB

- Blended orgasm
As you may have guessed, this type of pleasure is obtained by combining the two previous orgasms. Stimulation must therefore pass through both the penis and the prostate.
- Dry orgasm, also known as 'injaculation':
Less well known than the others, this type of orgasm occurs when there is ultimate pleasure but no ejaculation. This is usually the result of repeated intercourse. The body has no time to replenish its sperm reserves.
This type of orgasm can be quite frustrating for men, who aregenerally used to seeing sperm as proof of their virility.
- Sleep orgasm
Also known as 'nocturnal orgasm', this type of pleasure is usually triggered by an erotic dream. There's no bodily stimulation here, just erotic thoughts.
