In this article, we share a technique to intensify your orgasms : edging . And as a bonus, this method can be practiced both solo and with a partner.

What is edging: definition of an anglicism

The term edging comes from the English word "edge," meaning "the border" or "the edge." As the name suggests, it's a sexual practice that invites you to play with the limits of orgasm . Its goal? To amplify the sensation of arousal before reaching climax.

To explain it better, edging is based on the ability to delay orgasm and hold back from climaxing. This ability to maintain and prolong the pre-orgasmic phase has the benefit of propelling you towards a state of intense pleasure!

In addition to multiplying it tenfold, this technique also allows you to master your pleasure and understand its depths and boundaries.

On a physiological level, it allows the plateau phase of arousal to be prolonged , which leads to an accumulation of sexual tension and a release of endorphins and other neurotransmitters associated with pleasure.

The goal is to please you as much as possible and to get you as close as possible to the point of no return!

Next, the challenge will be to stop before you crack. Dare you?

Edging is an excellent solution for the 35% of French women (Statista, 2021) who report being dissatisfied with their sex life .

Try your hand at edging: our best tips

Starting edging solo

Edging is a practice to try on your own before embarking on it with your partner.

You can start by exploring your erogenous zones , then masturbate. Take the time to feel the different levels of arousal to discover what makes you feel alive. The idea behind this exploration phase is to understand the triggers that bring you pleasure and to know precisely when orgasm is close.

The aim of this preparation is to allow you to sharpen your ability to stop stimulation in time in order to delay your orgasm .

Perhaps you won't experience orgasm during your first attempts. Don't panic! Like any new skill and like fine wine, orgasm control improves with time.

Doing edging with your partner

Frustration is the key to raising the temperature.

To arouse your partner, you can touch them and then, when you reach the desired intensity, suddenly stop. Change erogenous zones , slow down your movements, or even stop contact altogether if there is trust between you.

Don't be afraid to ask him/her to verbalize their sensations and put words to the pleasure he/she feels at that moment. And why not take the opportunity to do a little dirty talk ?

Define the signals to use beforehand to prevent either of you from reaching your limit. These signals will allow you to slow down stimulation and restart the movements. You can opt for a simple and effective "Stop." For greater precision, choose a scale of 1 to 10, where 10 is the highest level of pleasure. This allows you to better manage the delay of gratification and amplify enjoyment.

Edging in a relationship is a beautiful expression of trust where you allow your partner to take control of your pleasure . It works with masturbation , but also with oral stimulation or vaginal and anal penetration .

This experience can also serve as a safe space to explore dominance and submission games in a playful and safe way.

The vibrator: your BFF for playing with the limits of orgasm

Which vibrator should I choose for edging?

If you wish to take on this challenge, you will need to take the time to discover which vibrator suits you best.

We recommend a clitoral stimulator , as it allows for targeted and intense stimulation . Choose a model with multiple speeds to enhance the build-up of pleasure. Coco will be your best ally in this exploration. It stimulates the clitoris while also allowing you to play with penetration if you wish.

How do I use it?

First and foremost, be patient. The desired result can only be achieved after several training sessions : it requires good mastery of its manipulation.

The effect of using a vibrator on one part of your body may not be the same for someone else. Don't limit yourself to stimulating your genitals. Dare to explore other erogenous zones on your body. Your neck, breasts , anus, or even the small of your hips may react unexpectedly to its stimulation.

Once you reach the clitoris, take your time to gradually increase the temperature, starting from its edges, sides, or underside. This can lead to more intense arousal! The most important thing is to approach it with great care to discover what truly feels good.

You'll see, regular edging practice gives a real boost to your libido .

What are the risks associated with edging?

Pushing the boundaries can raise concerns, and the internet is full of differing opinions on the potential dangers of this practice.

Edging is not without risk. It has been observed that this practice can have an impact on the brain in some individuals.

This negative effect begins during the pre-orgasmic phase , when orgasm is delayed, resulting in increased dopamine secretion in the brain.

And yes, it is thanks to dopamine that we feel this intense sensation of sexual pleasure.

But let's get straight to the point: what is the real danger associated with the practice of edging ?

The main risk is developing a form of masturbation addiction . When you make a habit of masturbating to increase arousal before intercourse, your brain becomes accustomed to a high dopamine release . The pleasurable rush at the moment of climax can become your benchmark for pleasure.

The risk then is to associate the pleasure felt during edging with the only acceptable level .

With this practice, your sexual intercourse may seem less satisfying than those moments of masturbation that border on ecstasy.

So be careful not to become too demanding during group sex or solo sessions where you're not experimenting with edging . Some more classic or traditional encounters are just as satisfying!

Our solution? To make this technique an occasional exploration and not an automatic reflex at every intimate moment.

As you've probably gathered, edging is a fantastic technique to add to your repertoire of practices to boost your libido and amplify your pleasure . Enjoy this feeling of complete fulfillment before and after releasing tension. Want to discover other techniques to make yourself feel good? Why not try erotic breathing techniques ?
