Research in the field has shown that orgasms can be achieved in several ways, depending on the area or areas stimulated during intercourse. Next, we present the six types of orgasms identified and cataloged, as well as their scientific explanations.

Vaginal orgasm

A vaginal orgasm was and still is a sensitive, even controversial topic. Even though there is no scientific evidence attesting to the presence of the so-called G-Spot, there are many people who claim to have climaxed by penetration alone, without additional stimulation.

According to medical history, the G-spot was theorized in the mid-1950s by Ernest Grafenberg, a German-born gynecologist with numerous contributions to the study of the female reproductive system. Fascinated by obscure medical treatises, Grafenberg discovered in the diary of Reigner de Graaf, a doctor who lived in the 17th century, some mentions regarding female ejaculation and the existence of an erogenous zone similar to that of the prostate.

Although researchers have never settled on the existence and function of this vaginal area, most treatises admit that during penetration, the woman can experience immeasurable pleasure when the partner stimulates a certain area.

Sexologists say that the erogenous zone named after the German gynecologist would be located somewhere at the confluence between the perineum and the pubic mountain, also known popularly as the "Mountain of Venus". More precisely, it would be 5 centimeters above the anterior vaginal wall, between the vaginal opening and the urethra.

Because of its positioning, the G-spot could theoretically only be stimulated by deep penetration. That's why sexologists recommend positions that allow deeper penetration, such as the doggy-style position.

Clitoral orgasm

If you want to go "safe", as they say, a clitoral orgasm is the most convenient option. Although many consider this type of orgasm boring, sexologists say there are numerous advantages to clitoral stimulation.

The first of these would be the degree of innervation. Imaging tests have shown that this area has around 8,000 nerve endings, in contrast to the head of the penis, which contains only 3000–400 nerve endings.

The second advantage would be the duration and intensity of the orgasm. In some interviews, respondents stated that a clitoral orgasm can last between 10 and 30 seconds. And last but not least, the lasting stimulation of the clitoris can take the place of a sexual act.

For proper stimulation, sexologists recommend self-stimulation, in the first instance, to discover what you like and what you don't like. You can use your fingers for this or sex toys like vibrators. Your partner's technique is just as important as solo games. Try to guide him during sex.

The U-point

Less known than the G-spot, the U-spot is a very well innervated erogenous zone. The problem with stimulating this area, and for that matter the reason why it is very little known, is the positioning. Most couples who experiment with other vaginal erogenous zones end up stimulating the clitoris, which they mistake for the urethral opening.

The U-point is the place between the urethral opening and the clitoris. Because it is a particularly sensitive area, it is recommended to carefully massage the area. Also, lingual stimulation is much more indicated in this case, due to the additional lubrication.

Anal Orgasm

For many couples, anal sex is taboo. That's why many people hesitate when it comes to trying positions that are not found in the canon.

As a rule, people avoid this type of intimate contact because they either associate it with pain and physical discomfort, or they are disgusted by the idea of ​​inserting an object or organ into that cavity.

Sexologists say that the anal orgasm can be as intense as the clitoral one if the partner follows a few simple rules.

First, lubrication is mandatory during anal sex compared to vaginal sex (the vagina can lubricate itself, but the anus is not). Additional stimulation, either through the use of vibratory sex toys or the use of the tongue, will further relax the area.

Last but not least, it must be taken into account that penetration during anal sex is different from vaginal. Usually, it is recommended to only insert the head of the penis, and at the same time stimulate the clitoris with fingers or sex toys.

Orgasm during exercise

It sounds pretty weird but, yes, you can have an orgasm while exercising. Don't think they are as intense as those felt during clitoral or anal stimulation, but they are a pleasant surprise.

Sexologists say that this type of orgasm occurs after cardio exercises. To experience such an orgasm, we recommend you do the following things. Get on an exercise bike or treadmill and exercise for 10–15 minutes or until you feel like you can't take it anymore. After, get a mat and do some exercises for the muscles of the legs (stretches) and the pelvis. When you feel like you can't do it anymore, do a series of exercises. That pleasant, dull "pain" you feel is an orgasm.

Goosebumps Orgasm

Many of you have probably felt goosebumps when you listen to a good song or when you read something you like. Well, that sensation, popularly called "goosebumps" is a small orgasm.

Although the mechanism behind this orgasm is not yet clear, researchers believe it has something to do with the way our brains are anchored in reality. Certain melodic lines or sudden tempo changes can momentarily alter the brain's perception of reality.

These were the best-documented types of orgasm. Of course, if pop culture is to be believed, there are an infinite number of types of climax, but not all of them can be scientifically documented. Our advice is to try what you have on hand for guaranteed results.
