Vaginal and clitoral orgasms: any difference?
Women who orgasm through vaginal stimulation get a bigger rush of love for their partners, says a Venezuelan sexpert.
Most women need clitoral stimulation to climax, but for some just vaginal stimulation will do the trick. The orgasms feel different both physically and emotionally, says Venezuelan sexologist and psychiatrist Dr Rómulo Aponte.
Vaginal orgasms are less intense, but unlike clitoral orgasms, women feel like they spread throughout the entire body. This is because the sensory routes activated in the body and brain are different for vaginal and clitoral orgasms, Dr Aponte told Love Matters.
When a woman comes through vaginal stimulation she also has a higher level of prolactin, the hormone involved in making you feel sexually satisfied.
Emotionally, women who have vaginal orgasms feel a stronger bond with their partner, the sexologist said, citing several studies.
Brain waves
The waves of pleasure felt during a vaginal orgasm are caused by a chemical response in the brain, which begins when a woman is stimulated.
Three parts of the brain are crucial to the orgasm sensation, Dr Aponte explains.
- The hypothalamus – the brain’s control centre, which regulates the chemical messages.
- The somatosensory cortex of the temporal lobe – the part of the brain involved in physical sensations, including pleasure.
- The prefrontal cortex – responsible for complex thought processes, like interpreting information.
During an orgasm, the somatosensory cortex picks up the pleasure. But it has to communicate with the prefrontal cortex, so you can actually consciously recognise the pleasure of a climax when you feel it.

Hi Wycliffe,
Hi Wycliffe,
as the article states ‘Most girls need clitoral stimulation to climax, but for some just vaginal stimulation will do the trick’
Most women will need clitoral stimulation to orgasm- which is why the in-and-out of intercourse often isn’t enough for women.

Hi Edmunds,
Hi Edmunds,
Almost all women can have an orgasm. Only a very small fraction may not be able to.
You can make sure she has an orgasm by asking her what she likes, asking for feedback, and watching her closely. And knowing some of the important body parts for the female orgasm, like the clitoris.

Hi Harmony,
Hi Harmony,
most likely she is not fully aroused when you try to penetrate her.
Make sure you pay lots of attention to the clitoris, using your fingers and mouth, until she is very wet. Or use plenty of lubricant.
Also, have a look at what our expert has to say about painful sex:
