Recognizing a time to embrace and a time to refrain from embracing can promote the health and wellbeing of the reproductive endocrine system of individual women. This paper evaluates the peer-reviewed published literature to offer a cohesive view of the functional role played by the timing of genital stimulation in the health and well being of women. Correlatively, the literature also reveals the disruptive relationship between inappropriate timing of genital stimulation and deficient reproductive endocrine health. Back to the top. A Time to Learn A time to learn the ways in which genital stimulation can lead to orgasmic completion appears to be dependent on the complexity of the physiological system.
Vaginal stimulation is similar.
However, a study of Philadelphia-area women suggests that women do not experience consistently, sufficient genital stimulation during coitus to trigger orgasmic inevitability. The genital apparatus of women appears to be more complex than that of men. Evidence suggests that women may have 3 separate potential locations for ever more complex orgasmic experiences. A Time to Behave At least once in every nonmenstruating week appears to be a minimum time to engage in genital stimulation with a partner in order to reliably yield steroid secretion patterns that promote both fertility and general health. From 1975 through 1986, in a series of studies at the University of Pennsylvania, my colleagues and I investigated relationships between the timing of women's sexual behavior and aspects of their reproductive endocrinology.
