This Is How People Orgasm Around the World

Here at Health, we’re all about covering the latest news on orgasms—like how to have them regularly, how to make them more intense, and why they don’t just feel good but can boost your health and relationship too.

So we were thrilled to come across Lelo’s Orgasm Day 2017 Survey. The folks at Lelo, the sex toy retailer, did the hard work of polling 2,200 people across 21 countries about their big Os, asking questions such as how often they reach the pleasure peak, the position that makes it easiest to do so, and how loud they are when they pass the finish line.

Lelo crunched the numbers and released a list this week that ranked the countries where people orgasm the most and most intensely, as well as nations where citizens might want to amp up the bedroom action and increase their weekly orgasm count. (Fellow Americans, we’re looking at you.). Here’s what the survey found.

Norwegians have the most orgasms

Norway’s chilly temps must be inspiring residents to create heat between the sheets, because 35% of Norwegian respondents said they have the big O at least once a day. On average, the worldwide climax rate is 2 to 3 times per week, according to the survey. If you’re having trouble reaching the brink, try these 4 ways to overcome orgasm roadblocks.

Canadians should orgasm more

While just 15% of our neighbors to the north say they’ve never experienced an orgasm, another 15% rated their orgasm intensity a paltry one on a scale of 1 to 10. Never had an orgasm? Here’s what Health‘s resident doc says about your inability to climax.

Americans have work to do
