Different studies suggest anywhere from 11 to 41 percent of women experience difficulty orgasming, even when sexually aroused and with sufficient stimulation. What are common causes for orgasmic dysfunction in women and how can you treat it? We’ll cover all this below.

    Causes for Orgasmic Dysfunction in Women

    Psychological Issues

    Some forms of mental illnesses and stress can promote orgasmic dysfunction. Depression and anxiety are common causes for this condition, as well as general day-to-day stress.
