Arousal in women has several phases until climax PHOTO beezsex.com
Women and men manifest differently when it comes to arousal. If men need a little time to get excited, arousal in women has several phases until the climax.
The triggering factor of sexual desire for both sexes is testosterone, a chemical substance erroneously called the “male hormone”. In men, it is produced in the testicles and adrenal glands, and in women, in the ovaries and adrenal glands. In both men and women, testosterone is the chemical fuel that fires up the brain’s sexual engine. When it exists in sufficient quantity, testosterone stimulates the hypothalamus, triggering erotic feelings, causing the birth of erotic desires and physical sensations in the erogenous zones.
When people get excited, sex takes all their attention. The most obvious phenomenon that occurs during sexual arousal is the dilation of blood vessels in the pelvis and genitals. As soon as a woman begins to think intensely about sex, her vagina begins to moisten, preparing it for possible sexual activity.
