Human Sexual Response Cycle (HSRC)
9
Q
- Muscle tension increases
- Heart rate quickens and breathing is accelerated
- Skin may become flushed
- Nipples become hardened or erect
A
HSRC PHASE 1: EXCITEMENT
10
Q
- Blood flow to the genitals increases (swelling of clitoris and labia minora, and erection of man’s penis)
- Vaginal lubrication begins
A
HSRC PHASE 1: EXCITEMENT
11
Q
- The woman’s breasts become fuller and the vaginal walls begin to swell
- The man’s testicles swell, his scrotum tightens, and he begins secreting a lubricating liquid
A
HSRC PHASE 1: EXCITEMENT
12
Q

- The vagina continues to swell from increased blood flow, and the vaginal walls turn a dark purple
A
HSRC PHASE 2: PLATEAU
13
Q

and retracts under the clitoral hood to avoid
direct stimulation from the penis - The man’s testicles are withdrawn up into the
scrotum
A
HSRC PHASE 2: PLATEAU
14
Q

continue to increase - Muscle spasms may begin in the feet, face,
and hands - Muscle tension increases
A
HSRC PHASE 2: PLATEAU
15
Q

HSRC PHASE 4: RESOLUTION
20

refractory period
21
Q
