Detailed explanation-1: -What is the refractory period, and can you reduce it? The refractory period is the span of time after having an orgasm during which a person is not sexually responsive.

Detailed explanation-2: -According to some studies, 18-year-old males have a refractory period of about 15 minutes, while those in their 70s take about 20 hours, with the average for all men being approximately half an hour. Although rarer, some males exhibit no refractory period or a refractory period lasting less than 10 seconds.
