Medical Video: 4 ways your breasts can change when sexually aroused
There are lots of hot spots or areas that are sensitive to sexual stimulation throughout the human body. No exception breast. However, did you know that like the vagina and penis, the breasts will also show certain characteristics when you are filled with passion? Curious what happens when the breasts are aroused? Check the signs below!
Can breasts be aroused?
You probably already know that a sensitive area of a woman who will respond to sexual stimulation is the clitoris, vagina, and cervix. When quite excited, these three sensitive areas will experience muscle contraction. Blood will also flow rapidly towards these parts.
Apparently, according to a study in 2011 in the Journal of Sexual Medicine, breasts can also be aroused like the three sensitive areas earlier. In the study, it was found that activity in the part of the brain called the sensory cortex increases when the breast, specifically the nipple, is sexually stimulated. The reaction of the sensory cortex is apparently exactly the same as the reaction when the vagina is stimulated.
Signs of breast are aroused
Because the activity of the sensory cortex increases, the body's system receives strong signals from the brain. So, when the breasts are aroused you can see the following signs.
1. The color of the nipple changes
According to female health expert Dr. Jennifer Wider, the color of breast nipples will turn darker when you are aroused. This color change actually indicates that the volume of blood in the areola and the nipple increases.
When women are aroused, blood vessels in various parts of the body will widen, as well as in the breast. This makes the blood flow to the breast more profusely. So, the area of your breasts will turn red while the nipples are darker in color.
2. The nipples become harder
Previously maybe the nipples felt soft and soft. But when the breasts are aroused, the nipples will experience an erection. This means that your nipples harden and appear to be denser.
This occurs because of increased blood flow in the nipple and areola area. The blood fills your nipples that were weak. So, when touched or given stimulation, the nipples feel more dense and hard.
3. Enlarged breasts
Yes, a woman's breasts will enlarge naturally when aroused. Even according to a study in 1966, experts found that women's breasts could increase up to 25% more when aroused. Because it enlarges, the breast becomes more sensitive to touch. Some women even claim to be able to reach orgasm just because their breasts are aroused.
Then what about men's breasts?
After knowing the importance of the role of breasts for female sexuality, you might want to know whether men also have similar reactions when aroused. In fact, there are no studies that prove the male brain's reaction to stimulation in the nipple and breast area. However, some men claim to get sexual satisfaction when their partner plays in the nipple and chest area.
No need to worry if you don't feel any sensation when your partner stimulates your breasts. Everyone does have their own taste for sex.
