Before Komisaruk et al.'s functional magnetic resonance (fMRI) research on nipple stimulation in 2011, reports of women achieving orgasm from nipple stimulation relied solely on anecdotal evidence. įew women report experiencing orgasm from nipple stimulation. Nipple erection is due to the contraction of smooth muscle under the control of the autonomic nervous system, and is a product of the pilomotor reflex which causes goose bumps. Nipple erection during sexual arousal or breastfeeding are both caused by the release of oxytocin. Oxytocin is linked to sexual arousal and pair bonding, but researchers are divided on whether breastfeeding commonly incites sexual feelings. Besides creating maternal feelings, it also decreases a woman's anxiety and increases feelings of bonding and trust. The stimulation of women's nipples from suckling, including breastfeeding, promotes the production and release of oxytocin and prolactin. A survey in 2006 found that sexual arousal in about 82% of young females and 52% of young males occurs or is enhanced by direct stimulation of nipples, with only 7–8% reporting that it decreased their arousal. The individual's sexual partner may find such erection erotically stimulating. Nipple stimulation may result in sexual arousal, and erect nipples can be an indicator of an individual's sexual arousal. Physiological response īreasts, and especially the nipples, are erogenous zones. Smaller female breasts, however, are more sensitive than larger ones. At puberty, the male's breasts remain rudimentary but the female's develop further, mainly due to the presence of estrogen and progesterone, and become much more sensitive than the male ones. Male and female breasts, nipples and areolas develop similarly in the fetus and during infancy. Adult women and men report that breast stimulation may be used to both initiate and enhance sexual arousal, and a few women report experiencing orgasm from nipple stimulation. Nipple stimulation may produce sexual excitement, and erect nipples can be an indicator of an individual's sexual arousal. It may occur with the use of fingers, orally, such as by sucking or licking, as well as by use of an object. As part of sexual activity, the practice may be performed upon, or by, people of any gender or sexual orientation. Stimulation may be by breastfeeding, sexual activity, or an indirect non-sexual response. Nipple stimulation or breast stimulation is stimulation of the breast.
