5 best sex positions for female orgasm

Most women find it difficult to achieve orgasm during penetrative sex. But there are five positions that are most often successful. Try each of them and determine which one is right for you.

1. Cowgirl

How to do it

The partner lies on his back, the woman sits on top and wraps her legs around him. During sex, it’s better to rock back and forth rather than trying to bounce. You can also try to slowly describe an eight with your pelvis.

Why it works

  1. When the woman is on top, she completely controls the pace, angle, and depth of penetration.
  2. There are many variations of this position, making it versatile.
  3. The stimulation for the man in this position is not very strong, so he can last longer and give his partner time to achieve orgasm.

Variations

  1. Try the "Reverse Cowgirl" position: for this, the partner needs to sit with her back to the man's face. This way, he gets a great view, and she has new opportunities for stimulation.
  2. The man can place a pillow under his back and lift himself up a little. As a result, the position of the penis changes and other areas of the vagina can be stimulated.
  3. To enhance G-spot stimulation, it’s better for the woman to lean back. In this position, it's also convenient to stimulate the clitoris.

2. Doggy style

How to do it

The partners are on their knees, and the man penetrates the woman from behind. In this position, either only the partner can move, or both.

Why it works

  1. For women who can achieve vaginal orgasm, the plus is the intensity and direct stimulation of the G-spot.
  2. For women who need clitoral stimulation to orgasm, it's convenient to stimulate themselves with their hand or use a sex toy in this position.

Variations

  1. The partner can lower herself onto her elbows to change the angle of penetration.
  2. The partner can stand next to the bed — in this case, the depth and intensity of penetration will be even greater.
  3. To make the position more intimate, the partners can simply lie down.

3. Coital Alignment Technique

How to do it

It all starts with the missionary position, then the man rises slightly above the traditional position and, instead of making penetrating movements, focuses on sliding.

Why it works

In this position, the partner's pubic bone rubs against the clitoris, providing the necessary stimulation for many women to achieve orgasm. At the same time, the position remains quite relaxed and intimate.

Variations

  1. For stronger clitoral stimulation, one literally needs to open the labia so that the clitoris touches the partner's body.
  2. If the woman places a pillow under her hips, the angle of penetration will change.
  3. It wouldn't hurt to use lubricant: it will enhance the sliding.

4. Reverse Cowgirl Scissors

How to do it

This is not the simplest position. The woman should sit with her back to the man's face and wrap her legs around one of his knees.

Why it works

  1. As in the "Cowgirl" position, here the partner controls the pace, as well as the intensity of clitoral stimulation.
  2. Additionally, this is a less common position, so its novelty can be exciting in itself.

Variations

It all depends on the woman. She can change the position of her legs: spreading them wider or pulling them closer, as well as leaning back or leaning forward.

5. Bridge

How to do it

Start with the missionary position. Then the partner should get on his knees, and the partner should lift her pelvis.

Why it works

  1. This position provides deep penetration and stimulation of the G-spot.
  2. In this position, the partner can also conveniently stimulate the clitoris.

Variations

  1. The man can lift or lower himself to change the angle of penetration. Just like the woman can.
  2. To increase intensity, it’s better for the partner to wrap her legs around the partner’s torso or throw them on his shoulders.
