Multiple orgasm play is the deliberate pursuit of having several orgasms in a single session, with or without pauses in between, rather than stopping after the first one. The term covers a wide range of approaches, from riding out naturally recurring orgasms to using techniques or toys specifically to trigger repeat climaxes.
Some people find that their first orgasm opens the door to easier and sometimes stronger subsequent ones, which is a big part of what draws enthusiasts to this kind of play. Partners often get involved by learning each other's rhythm and timing, since the window between orgasms can be short and the sensitivity afterward varies a lot from person to person.
Worth knowing: Overstimulation after orgasm can shift quickly from pleasurable to painful, so agreeing on a slow-down or stop signal and checking in between rounds matters more here than in almost any other kind of play.
Also called: multi-orgasmic play, serial orgasms, continuous orgasm, extended orgasm session, forced orgasm play, edging into multiples, stacked orgasms
