Brief Answer: No worries yet, check psychological, mental state Detailed Answer: Hi and thanks for the query, I do understand how disturbing this could be. It might be important however to restate the fact that orgasm marks the acme or peak of sexual excitement. Both physical and psychological factors are usually involved. The psychological and emotional component is usually most frequent. It might be necessary to check if you are going through some psychological problems or stress lately. You should convince your self also that you really loved your sexual partner. At times intense physical activity, or having sex after a period of exhaustion might not lead to orgasm mainly due to fatigue. Lack of enough fore play or sexual arousal and excitation at times might delay greatly an orgasm or sexual excitement. A poor erection also also usually associated with lack of orgasms. Physical factors in your case might be very rare, especially if you were used to have normal orgasms. Strictures, infections and malformations and generally the most commonly seen malformations. I suggest rechecking your mental state with respect to your sexual partner lately, if there is any stress or not, exercise and enough rest. Enough fore play before sex could be of help. In case of persistence, the opinion of a urologist or sexologist could be useful. thanks and kind regards Dr Bain
