World Orgasm Day: A Global Celebration of Pleasure & Wellness
What Is World Orgasm Day?
Since 2006, 22nd December has been used as a day for celebrating pleasure globally.
World Orgasm Day is an annual celebration that promotes sexual wellness, intimacy, and the transformative power of pleasure. The day aims to normalise conversations around sexual health, raise orgasm awareness, dismantle taboos, and encourage people to embrace sexual wellness and orgasms. The internationally observed day also aims to break common myths and misconceptions surrounding orgasms.
Whether you plan to observe it through self-love, shared moments with a partner, or get involved in broader discussions about sexual rights and health, celebrating World Orgasm Day can help you discover how this intimate pleasure contributes to a happier, healthier world.
The Importance of Orgasms for Physical and Emotional Health
The importance of orgasms stretches far beyond short-lived pleasure. The benefits of orgasms also spread into the realm of physical and emotional well-being. You may have noticed that you feel instantly relaxed and happier following a great orgasm. This is because the brain releases a surge of feel-good chemicals like endorphins, dopamine, and oxytocin during an orgasm. After this hormone surge, you may start to feel calm and sleepy thanks to the body’s release of oxytocin and prolactin hormones. These hormones can also help with pain relief and ease headaches, period cramps and other aches.
Studies have shown that regular orgasms can boost the body’s immune system. Orgasms may also contribute to improved heart health by boosting circulation, lowering blood pressure, and enhancing overall cardiovascular function.

Knowing what brings you pleasure empowers you to communicate your needs effectively. Meanwhile, shared pleasure and sexual exploration can release oxytocin (known as the ‘bonding hormone’) which strengthens trust, affection, and relationship satisfaction.
