Understanding Male Orgasmic Dysfunction

Also called male orgasmic disorder or male anorgasmia, orgasmic dysfunction in men is the persistent inability for a male to achieve orgasm (climax) with a partner despite sufficient sexual contact and stimulation. The male may or may not be able to achieve orgasm through masturbation or oral sex.

The causes vary widely and can include side effects from medications or surgery, psychological issues, and medical conditions, such as diabetes (just to name a few). An accurate diagnosis of the underlying cause is essential to creating an effective treatment plan. This is why it’s important to talk to your doctor.

We understand this is an extremely sensitive topic to broach with a physician. Our board-certified urologists are trained to listen compassionately and to help patients with male orgasmic dysfunction. You are not alone. Let us help!
