A spontaneous orgasm, or spontaneous ejaculation when it occurs in males, is an orgasm which occurs spontaneously and involuntarily without sexual stimulation.^[1]^[2] Nocturnal emissions may be considered a normal/physiological form of spontaneous orgasm.^[1] Pathological spontaneous orgasms can be experienced as pleasurable, non-pleasurable, or unpleasant, and can be distressing.^[1]^[2] Causes of pathological spontaneous orgasms include spinal cord lesions, psychological causes, rabies, and medications.^[1] Some cases may have no identifiable cause.^[1] Spontaneous orgasms may have no trigger or may be triggered by various non-sexual circumstances (e.g., urination, defecation, glans touch, anxiety, panic attacks, school examinations).^[1] They may occur in both males and females.^[2] Treatment of spontaneous orgasms include psychotherapy, selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) (e.g., paroxetine, citalopram, sertraline), the alpha-1 blocker silodosin, and anxiolytics.^[1]
