In this episode, Dr. Morgentaler and Dr. Brandon talk about real data on orgasm frequency and how to make sense of it in a healthy, guilt-free way.

00:00 – Introduction to Orgasm Frequency
Dr. Morgentaler and Dr. Brandon open the episode by breaking down real data on how often people actually have orgasms.

01:25 – Defining Hypersexuality and Sex Addiction
They unpack why "hypersexuality" is so debated and explain why orgasm frequency alone isn't a reliable marker of sex addiction.

08:25 – Gender Differences in Orgasm Frequency
They compare how often men and women typically orgasm each week and highlight why those averages naturally differ.

13:04 – Age and Sexual Activity: A Statistical Dive
They explore how orgasm frequency shifts across age groups and how hormones and health influence those changes.

14:47 – Hypersexuality and Masturbation: Breaking the Stigma
They normalize daily masturbation and explain why high frequency doesn't automatically mean someone is "hypersexual."

19:34 – Porn Use and Its Implications
They discuss how porn use ties into masturbation habits and why time spent on porn—not frequency alone—is what signals potential concern.
