After establishing herself as a “genital influencer” offering tips and guidance on female pleasure online, sexuality specialist gynecologist Marcela Mc Gowan preaches: “Clarity after the nut” This is the achievement of clear thoughts after orgasm.
The theory was presented to the world in the podcast Call her dad, in the United States. According to Marcela, science has proven that the brain begins to think better after orgasm and that thoughts are processed more cleanly.
“Scientifically it makes sense because when we have an orgasm we end up activating new regions of the brain. We release endorphins, dopamine, which help reduce stress, a factor that hinders decisionmaking and thinking. It’s actually an idea that our brain can think more clearly after an orgasm. “Basically, after this phase of arousal, which culminates in an orgasm, we are able to make decisions more rationally,” he explains.

But the doctor realizes that achieving orgasm is not the easiest task. There are many obstacles, he emphasizes. Myths, limiting beliefs about sex that feed women throughout their lives, and even a lack of knowledge about their own bodies prevent them from reaching climax: “Some women still don’t know their vulva, their body, their pleasure areas. “They don’t know where to stimulate themselves, how and what might be useful.”
For the expert, the “sexual script” today is very much geared toward “people with penises.” She generally sees sex as something very quick, a direct route to the genitals, without the proper stimulation for people with vulvas.
“This ultimately makes orgasm more difficult, as well as mental health, selfesteem and physical health. These three points belong to the vast majority of women.”
Since she began posting on social networks about female pleasure, Marcela can no longer count how many women stop her on the street to report on the progress they have made with her advice and tips during sex.
“Sometimes I’m in public places with Luiza (singer Luiza Martins), my fiancée, and people tell me very intimate things about her in the first five seconds. I heard that the first orgasm was because of me. I know a lot of intimacy out there.”

Check out some tips from Marcela Mc Gowan to achieve orgasm:
. Try reading and talking about sex: “The more we talk about sex, the more we can deconstruct these patterns that we carry throughout our lives.”
. Body selfknowledge: “It is urgent to touch yourself, to get to know your body and to know the stimuli that make sense. Look at your vulva and establish a loving, erotic, and pleasurable relationship with your own body to learn how to control your pleasure during sex with another person.”
. Why sex between women is pleasurable: “There is more anatomical knowledge, an observation of one’s own body, which will be applicable in most cases. (…) When it comes to sex between two people with a vulva, i.e. two women, we will focus much more on practices that work better for those with a clitoris. That’s the big problem. It’s a script where I observe this body and know what practices work for people with a clitoris.”
