For quite a long time, issues related to female pleasure and female erogenous zones were a mystery, and did not arouse any interest or attention. It was only in 1966 that scientists Virginia Johnson and Masters raised the topic of femininity and orgasm in women, they first described the clitoris, which was the impetus for liberation in this area, and women could better understand the mechanism of their pleasure. In this article, we will talk about the anatomy of the organ that allows for incredible pleasure and how female orgasm affects the body.
What is the clitoris and where is it located?
The clitoris is an organ that allows you to receive pleasure, in men this organ is the penis, both the clitoris and the penis have the ability to be aroused and to be in a state of erection, but unlike the male organ, the only task of the clitoris is to deliver pleasant sensations.
There are many myths surrounding this organ, some believe that orgasm can only be achieved through penetration, and others consider it just a part of the body that has no use, but these are all myths and I want to dispel them, because it is the clitoris that determines the degree of pleasure, not penetration and its depth.

Functions of the clitoris in the female body
The female organ contains many nerve endings, which makes it the most sensitive area:
- causes orgasm;
- stimulation improves the emotional and physical state of the body;
- helps to form a positive sex experience;
- supports an equal approach to pleasure in intimate relationships
Clitoral stimulation causes orgasm, which is the most common type in women. The main goal is the release of endorphins, hormones that cause joy and pleasure. After the peak of pleasure, the sensitivity decreases and the clitoris size returns to its normal size. Clitoral orgasm in women occurs during masturbation and during intimate intercourse with a partner. Many women reach peak pleasure only through clitoral stimulation, not penetration. Understanding how the clitoris helps to achieve peak pleasure contributes to better communication with your partner and a better sex life.

Tips on how to stimulate the clitoris to get vivid sensations
You can get incredible pleasure by stimulating the clitoris by following simple rules and advice from sexologists.
- First, you need to know the structure of the clitoris and your level of sensitivity, it is very important to study your body, what you like, what movements and intensity bring pleasant sensations, and which ones, on the contrary, cause discomfort.
- Before starting the process, you need to take care of hand and genital hygiene to avoid irritation and infection
- You can caress the clitoris with your fingers, your own or your partner’s, with your tongue or using sex toys, be sure to moisturize your fingers or the device you will use, because the skin in this area is very delicate and sensitive and requires careful and light movements.
- The clitoral head is a sensitive area, which is what you should focus on, using slow and gentle circular movements, start caressing the erogenous zone, stroking and watching the sensations and reactions.
- Be sure to communicate with your partner if he or she is caressing your sensitive organ, talk about your feelings and desires.

How to increase clitoral sensitivity?
Erogenital zones in both men and women can reduce their sensitivity, this can be due to infectious, gynecological diseases, stress and nervous tension, in some cases, medical therapy will help restore sensitivity, and in some cases, work with a psychologist and sexologist. Also, with the development of medicine, doctors offer the introduction of hyaluronic acid, plasmolifting, etc.
They also suggest using sex toys, nowadays the adult toy market has a large variety of products, from creams to vibrators, each of the products performs its own function, so you need to experiment to get to know your body better and what works well for it. Tantric massage is also a great method for restoring clitoral sensitivity, consisting of a slow erotic massage of the erogenous zones, while it is very important to control your breathing, relax as much as possible, which will help increase sexual energy. Experimenting with postures helps to discover new areas of pleasure, diversify sexual life, and exploring pressure and intensity is also equally important for increasing arousal.

Clitoral toys
Sexual toys designed specifically to stimulate the erogenous zone differ in shape, size, and additional functions. They help to get a powerful orgasm without penetration. Devices are distinguished by the principle of operation:
- Vibrators (act on the sensitive organ through vibration).
- Vacuum stimulators (devices imitate gentle touch and stroking.
- Rabbit massagers (devices are designed to stimulate several erogenous zones at the same time, gently stimulate and do not cause any discomfort).
- Pulsators (toys perform rhythmic shocks).
Intimacy should be pleasurable for both women and men, who should care about a woman’s orgasm as much as their own pleasure. Awareness, etc., that the partner is experiencing orgasms and pleasurable moments improves the pleasure of sexual play and significantly increases male self-esteem. The feeling of peak pleasure in women is an indication that the partner is able to bring joyful moments of pleasure to the partner.
