I had no idea there was such a thing until reading [this Gizmodo article](https://gizmodo.com/man-had-so-many-prostate-orgasms-he-couldnt-stop-accor-1821441931) about a guy who’d trained himself to have them and found that he couldn’t stop having them in the end. I’m intrigued. I know that SDMB members run the gamut of human experience so I wondered if anyone here had experienced them and if they are as earth-shaking as the article says. Enquiring minds want to know! ---

My prostate is giving me fits. Urination is an absolute chore now. I urinate well over a dozen times a day, taking much longer to get started than before, in little tiny amounts, never fully emptying my bladder (a satisfying feeling I rarely enjoy). Wake up needing to pee in the middle of each and every night. Hate it. Yet two interesting developments. I can masturbate to orgasm much faster now -and- I have an easier time peeing the day after orgasm. So, now my doc writes me a monthly script for four 100mg Viagra. $160 Rx for a $4 co-pay. Divide each pill into 4 doses, allowing me to take 25mg of Viagra every other day - Deal! So I have some idea what you’re talking about, yet I ain’t playing with my ass to ‘explore’ this further. ---

What, you aren’t taking Flowmax (tamsulosin) for it? Or are you already maxed out on tamsulosin? You’re right, Old Man’s Prostate can be a pain in the ass. On a bad night, I may well have to get up to pee ten times in a night. On a good night, I can sometimes actually get a nights sleep. Do older females have this kind of trouble peeing sometimes? I’ve heard it said, but if so, I haven’t heard why. Not prostate problems, I presume? ---

> [@Senegoid](#): > > … > Do older females have this kind of trouble peeing sometimes? I’ve heard it said, but if so, I haven’t heard why. Not prostate problems, I presume? They don’t have a prostate to clamp down on the pee pipe nor to grow into space that used to be reserved for the bladder’s stretch capacity. So they can’t / don’t have the problems men have. AIUI older females have the opposite problem. Instead, partly as a result of childbearing, their urinary sphincter quits working well. So they just dribble some pee now and again at random. Or after any exertion. Like bending or standing up. As they get real old eventually it quits altogether and they just dribble pee all day and all night. Gives the phrase “Golden Years” a whole new meaning. :eek: ---

ISTM a lot more men will read or post to a thread about female plumbing than vice versa. They know they don’t want to know whatever TMI is in a thread about prostate orgasms. We know we don’t want to know about their utereal TMI either. But it has “female” in it, so we’re snake-fascinated and have to go read anyway. Men are so [del]dumb[/del] simple. 😃 ---

> [@LSLGuy](#): > > AIUI older females have the opposite problem. This can also be, in men or women, “urge incontinence”. It’s when the need to pee comes urgently, with no warning, and if you’re not near a toilet you’ll start to squirt. It’s why I take Myrbetriq. ---

Never had an issue with that. (Still young by this boards age base at 40) but my wife who has had four children has any kind of full body movement…sneeze, hard laugh, vomit. She will have incontinence issues. Which results in her being embarrassed and me taking care of her (clean pair of underwear, and me telling her it’s okay) let me just say this. To all the women out there. It’s just urine not toxic waste. Calm down! ---

I read the Gizmodo article. > [@](#): > > There are cases of spontaneous orgasms or other symptoms confused for orgasms, even epilepsy, she explained. She’d like to see more scientific research. Brogaard also pointed out that these days, researchers more frequently focus on the female orgasm, given how long it’s been neglected by science. There’s an old story of a woman who tells her doctor she has an orgasm every time she sneezes. “Are you taking anything for it?” “Just black pepper.” ---

I assume a thread like this can’t be considered TMI, so I’ll just discuss this matter-of-fact. Read about it and tried a bunch of guides, just to see what the fuss was about. On its own, stimulation seems maybe mildly pleasurable if I’m in the right mood, but not sexual. Trying to combine with regular orgasm is a slightly different sensation, but not worth the trouble versus adding some pelvic thrusts and tightening some muscles (like doing kegels) or squeezing a bit of pressure and just various other techniques to extend some of the sensation to the surrounding areas. In short, tried it but found it not really worth much. Glad it works for some people. ---

Not as good as the real thing. It’s definitely a whole body feeling and it can be intense but it lacks the explosive power. The best description I could come up with would be: You know the feeling, after a traditional orgasm, when you can be hypersensitive and every touch brings on a muscle contraction. After that feeling goes away there is a moment where a slight touch can bring on a longer drawn out wave of pleasure and maybe a little contraction in the abs and core but none of hard sharp muscle contractions. That’s the feeling. It’s cool and fun, but do you really want the last part without the first part? I assume that people that are really into it just use it as foreplay, its definitely not a replacement for the real thing.
