This is Your Brain on Orgasm

Your brain on sex

Forget playing Bejeweled—head to the bedroom instead. While smartphone games improve cognition in some areas of your brain, orgasms stimulate your entire mind, says new research from Rutgers University.

How come? When you climax, it sends a triple-shot of nutrients, oxygen, and increased blood flow to your brain—all essential to keeping your mind sharp, says lead researcher Barry Komisaruk.

Though the experiment had women pleasure themselves while laying in fMRI machines, Komisaruk expects the science to apply just the same to guys. “The brain activation in men’s and women’s orgasms is very similar,” he says.
