Are you ready to unlock the secret superpower of your body?
Well, if you haven’t heard it yet, your nipples are a great gateway for you to achieve pleasure. Yes—even for amazing orgasms.
A lot of people only focus on legs, so it’s easy to forget these erogenous zones above your waist. And your nipples are like buttons that you can use to send delightful waves of pleasure throughout your body.
Curious about how you can press that little button? Then, get yourself ready, because things will never be the same after some teasing and squeezing.
What is a Nipple Orgasm and How Does It Work?
A nipple orgasm, nip-gasm, or nipplegasm is a climax that you can get by stimulating the nipples without touching the genitals—because your nipples have a lot of tiny nerves that can offer big sensations.
In fact, some women during nipple play can feel sensations as intense as those felt when stimulating their clitoris or vagina.
And do you know that your nipples are wired to the same areas in your brain, where the clitoris and vagina are also connected in a way?
Once your nipples get stimulated, your key brain structure called the hypothalamus starts receiving these feel-good vibes. This area of your brain also regulates the chemicals to make you feel excited, horny, and happy.
So, once you start stimulating your nipples, your brain releases oxytocin—a neurohormone that’s also known as a love hormone. And this hormone can influence bond and trust and affect your relationship with others, as stated by Adrienne Santos-Longhurst of Healthline.
How Does a Nipple Orgasm Feel Like?
Every person may interpret the sensation differently. So, a nipple orgasm can feel like a genital orgasm for some or may feel different for some folks.
In a survey and study made by PubMed, 81.5% of women stated that by stimulating their nipples or breasts, it greatly enhanced their feeling of sexual arousal, while it’s 51.7% for the surveyed men.
And yet, some people stated that the slow build-up of nipple orgasms can help create a sudden burst of sensation throughout the body, which can really feel good.
How Nip-Gasms Can Benefit You
- Nipple orgasms can make you happy and healthy. As they promote the release of happy chemicals in your brain, your mood and overall health are enhanced and can even reduce your risk of cardiovascular diseases.
- Another thing, playing with your nipples can give you multiple orgasms.
- Nipple play can also give your mundane sex life some spice. Especially during whoopie sessions, nipples can only get more or less than 30 seconds of attention. So, why not make them the scene-stealer?
Can Everyone Get a Nipple Orgasm?
Regardless of gender, the short answer would be yes. But keep in mind that it’s always a different experience for different people.
Not everyone enjoys nipple play, but most nipples are sensitive enough. So, if you want to make nipple play an addition to your steamy sessions, it’s possible to achieve an orgasm, but only if you enjoy it.
Nikita Andester, a sex writer, shares her story when her husband gave her a nipple orgasm for the first time. According to Andester, her areolas being stimulated is what she loved the most. It was when her husband rubbed around her areola in a patient and well-stimulating motion to help her reach an explosive climax.
So Men Can Have Nipple Orgasms As Well?
Yes, they can—men can have nipple orgasms as long as you do it right.
If you’re doing it with an interested male partner, you should talk about what they’d like to try and the things that can make them feel good. And as always, having open communication together with your partner will always play a role in every successful sexual adventure.
Easy Steps to Achieve a Mind-Blowing Nipple Orgasm
Nipple play is something natural, and you don’t have to push yourself to lead to orgasm. But if you’re in the mood to get your endorphins flowing, there are some ways to help you easily get in this pleasurable state.
Getting Started
- Get Yourself or Your Partner in the Mood - To do this successfully, you can dim the lights, light some candles, or play some sensual music. Once you or your partner feels relaxed, it can always get the mood going.
- Get Comfortable - Using a comfortable position can help you feel more focused, so you’ll feel the pleasure without getting physically distracted.
- Fantasize - By letting your mind wander, you can imagine the things that can turn you on. And letting your sexual fantasies go wild can keep the arousal high as you play around.
- Take Your Time - Try to enjoy every sensation that you feel when playing with your breasts.
- Start Using Your Fingers - You can gently pinch, tease, touch, and squeeze the nipples to let you know what feels right. Other than your hand and fingers, you can also use lubes, nipple clamps, or nipple massagers to help ramp up the pleasure.
- Use Your Other Hand - Next, you can let your other hand wander in your body. So, it can find other erogenous zones like the clitoris or perineum. When it’s a fact that you can orgasm through nipple play alone, then why not explore the other parts for a much more enjoyable experience?
Achieving a Nipple Orgasm by Yourself
For now, let’s proceed to the expert-backed ideas to give yourself a whole new level of orgasm.
Get In Tune With Your Body
Any physical sensations that feel sensual can be more powerful. Especially once you feel totally in tune to them.
So, before trying to get yourself off using your nipples, why not have a warm bath or meditation first? And keeping your doors locked and removing your room’s clutter can help guarantee to give you a better masturbation experience.
Give Yourself a Full Breast Massage
It can feel a bit ticklish when touching your nipples for the first time. So, it’s best to touch the area using light touches that encircle the whole breast.
Using your palm, massage each of your breasts. Then, you can transition by gently stimulating the nipples using your fingers. For this step, you can also use different types of fabrics to offer you different types of sensations.
Use Your Fingers
So, this is the part where nipple play is at its peak. You can try stimulating the nipples by tracing them using circular motions. Or use your fingernails to give a different sensation by twisting and gently tugging the nipples.
Experiment and find what feels good, and apply different pressure toward different directions to find what feels right.
Explore Orgasm Delay
Things can be sweet after the long and patient waiting. So, this is where the power of “edging,” or delaying orgasm, comes into the picture.
To do this, you can try to go with it first and stop for a few seconds to cause a delay before you orgasm. Then, you can pick things up again where you left them off, and you may feel a sensation that’s more intense than before.
You can delay your orgasm as many times as you want and finalize it by letting yourself go for an epic finish.
Achieving a Nipple Orgasm With a Partner
For first-timers, nipple play can sound and feel awkward at first. But surely, with open and clear communication, your partner will appreciate anything that can satisfy the both of you.
So, to stimulate your partner’s body in a different way than usual, you can use these ideas below together.
Turn Up the Sexy Vibes
Anticipation is great if you want your partner to excitingly come at you. So, before you let your partner hop on your bed, why not use some dirty talk or a bit of sexting before they get home?
Maybe you can start with how sexy their breasts look, to the point that you can’t wait.
Involve Your (or Their) Body Parts
Putting your lips, tongue, or even teeth on work can give your partner a much warmer sensation.
You can try sucking and licking their breasts by using different pressure to stimulate them. A little nibble can also go a long way, as it helps free your hand to do the other sexy stuff.
Add Other Sensual Touches
The best thing about breasts? They’re accessible, and it can be easy to give them some love compared with other erogenous parts. So, other than the breasts, why not give the neck or inner thigh some light touches?
You might be asking, “When stimulating other body parts, is it still considered a nip-gasm finish?”
Well, you'll still most likely feel the powerful sensation from the nipples. And as long as you feel amazing, it won’t really matter if your breasts are the ones who are partially or wholly responsible.
Incorporating Other Sensations
Now, you already have the idea of the basics, so why not add some extras to keep the vibe sizzling?
- Lotions and Oils - Other than body-safe lubes, you can also apply lotions or oils to your breasts. As this can help reduce friction, protect the skin in the area, and enhance your feeling of arousal during nipple play.
- Ice - You can also add ice during nipple play to give you a different sensation. The cold feeling can send a chilling sensation in the body and can also give you an instant nipple erection.
- Use Toys - Nipple toys are a great and hands-free way to stimulate not just the nipples but also the whole breast. So, whether you use clamps or massagers, it can guarantee to intensify the arousal in a more fun way.
Other Tips You Can Apply During Nipple Play
- Don’t just dive in and head for the nipple right away. If you’re not sure what your partner will like, you can always work your way up. You can start by stimulating the other part of their breasts first, except the nipples. Then, find the right timing to kiss their collarbone or their neck.
- Once your partner appears ready or is already making a lot of noise due to pleasure, you can focus more on stimulating their areola. This is the dark-colored area that surrounds the nipples, and they can be very sensitive. You can gently stroke them by tracing a circle using your fingers or tongue.
- It can be easy to get carried away while sucking a nipple, right? But please, don’t leave one nipple out. It’s always double the fun, isn’t it?
- Don’t bite your partner’s nipples unless they asked to. If it’s too rough, ask them first if they want more or if they want to go harder.
- Check your partner’s reaction before you jiggle and slap. Some folks can enjoy rough plays, while others can’t. Please be considerate, especially if your partner is nursing, pregnant, or on their period, as their breasts can feel quite tender.
