Hardness of the Penis after Orgasm

Why is the penis not so hard after you reach an orgasm? How long does it take for it to become hard again?

 

It is not advisable to continue with stimulation after the orgasm if the penis is not completely hard anymore. (Phtoxpress)


Sometimes you are so exhausted, tired and sleepy that the only thing you can imagine doing is going to bed. That is the time when your body needs rest to be able to function again and regain its vitality. The same goes for the penis. Although men enjoy sex a lot and might want it more, they simply cannot do it because the penis also needs a ''break'' after experiencing an orgasm.


In principle, the period of ''regeneration'' differs from penis to penis. Some men can retain the sexual organ in the erectile state even after having an orgasm and continue with intercourse without taking the penis out of the vagina or the anus. Others are not so fortunate and they need a lot more time for the penis to regain its strength and to get ready for further action. When men get older, their regeneration period extends, but it differs from each individual as well as from different situations.  A number of men can achieve multiple orgasms before the sexual organ needs its regeneration period. Those who take the magic pill prior to the intercourse do not need regeneration because the penis is instantly ready for action again.

 

In any case, it is not advisable to continue with stimulation after having an orgasm if the penis is not completely hard. This can extend its regeneration period, and sexual intercourse with a less hard penis is not as pleasing as it is with an erect penis. It is recommended that during a break you focus on sensual foreplay with kissing and fondling and leave the penis to rest. You should continue with penetration when the penis is truly hard and ready for action.
