What Does an Orgasm Feel Like and Other FAQs
An orgasm can be described as one of the most powerful sensations your body experiences. In fact, in French, it’s known as le petit mort, or “the little death.” If you're wondering, "What does an orgasm feel like for a woman?" read on.
Most female orgasms are achieved through stimulation of the clitoris, the most sensitive erogenous in the female body and the primary anatomical source of female sexual pleasure. The clitoris consists of many parts. The glans is the visible part that’s located just above the urethral opening at the front junction of the labia minora (inner lips). The glans contains lots of nerves — more than any other area of the body. The clitoris also has internal components — the body and two legs.
When enough stimulation of the clitoral glans or anterior vaginal wall happens, the nerve endings all fire at once, sending messages to your brain. Several parts of your brain light up during orgasm, including the cerebral cortex and limbic areas of the brain. Orgasm is associated with elevated levels of dopamine, norepinephrine, oxytocin, and vasopressin — hormones that make you feel good.
What does an orgasm feel like for women? Sensations of touch and movement during sexual activity contribute to the sensory input to your brain. The hypothalamus is responsible for secreting oxytocin, the "love hormone” that gives feelings of pleasure and satisfaction. The thalamus integrates the input from the different areas of the brain and processes it all together.
When stimulated, either psychologically or physically, or both, the blood vessels in the genitals will dilate, and more blood is delivered to the vagina, vulva, and clitoris. The increased blood flow will cause the vulva to swell and release fluid, lubricating the vagina. The top of the vagina will expand as well.
Heart rate and blood pressure also increase, and the nipples may become erect. The areola may look darker as well. This increased blood flow may cause the face, neck, and chest to appear flushed.
Orgasm affects other parts of your body, too. If an orgasm occurs during penetrative sexual intercourse, the muscular walls of the vagina squeeze the penis, encouraging the partner to ejaculate. The cervix dilates and opens, which can help sperm move into the uterus and uterine tubes.
While the male orgasm is primarily related to ejaculation, female orgasm is traditionally thought to take many forms. The blending of different sensations and the activation of the pleasure centers of the brain are different for each woman. That’s why the question "What does it feel like to have an orgasm?" may get different answers from different women.
This is the most common type of female orgasm achieved through stimulation of the clitoral glans. A clitoral orgasm can be sharp and intense, usually is short-lasting, and can feel like a bursting sensation for some people.
This type of orgasm involves the elusive G-spot, a sensitive area inside the vagina, about halfway up along the front wall. Not all women experience vaginal orgasm, although it may be possible for all women. Vaginal orgasms typically happen during intercourse and may last longer and feel more like a whole-body climax rather than localized at the clitoris. They’re not as intense as clitoral orgasms, generally.
Some people may experience a vaginal and clitoral orgasm simultaneously, with the intensity of clitoral orgasm accompanying the deeper, more immersive pleasure of a vaginal orgasm.
This type of orgasm happens during exercise and is akin to a “runner’s high.” It may occur with stimulation of your clitoris and vaginal opening through your workout clothes, as well as the naturally occurring release of endorphins from working out. It’s described as less intense than orgasms that occur from sex but still a similar sensation.
Sex can be pleasurable for both partners, even if one or both doesn't orgasm. The feelings of closeness and intimacy unique to sexual activity can help bring you closer to your partner and create an emotional bond. Even though for many people, it’s the ultimate goal of sex, you don’t have to have an orgasm to enjoy sexual activity — it just makes the act more pleasurable.
Scientific studies have demonstrated that 60–80 percent of women don't climax during sex, and 10 percent may not experience orgasm at all, either alone or with a partner. The female body is designed to achieve orgasm, so if you don’t orgasm when you feel you should, you may need to practice on your own, touching different parts of your body and trying alternative forms of stimulation so that you can direct your partner toward things that you like.
What does an orgasm feel like for a girl? In general, orgasms are a sharp, sudden burst of pleasure after a lead-up of building stimulation and pleasurable feelings. The female orgasm has four stages:
In general, orgasm is the ultimate feeling of pleasure, a climax of enjoyable sensations.
While ejaculation is typically for male orgasms, some female orgasms also cause “ejaculation.” Obviously, the female body doesn’t release semen, but a “squirting” orgasm can provide a different, but still pleasurable, culmination of sexual play.
Squirting happens through repeated stimulation of the G-spot area inside the vagina. The Skene glands, located near the urethra opening, produce fluid that is ejaculated from the urethra. Because the fluid doesn't come from the bladder, it isn’t urine, but because it comes from the urethra, it is urine-adjacent.
Some women say squirting feels like the release after holding your urine for a long time and then finally being able to go. For others, it’s a physical sensation that accompanies the hormonal release as part of a vaginal orgasm. Some women may not realize that they're squirting. The female orgasm can cause the vagina to produce more lubrication, so the extra wetness may feel like that.
The intensity of orgasms can vary, and for many women, there’s a strong mental component that goes along with the physical sensations. That being said, there are a few strategies you can employ to make the stimulating feelings more intense and control the sensations in your vagina.
For example, Kegel exercises can strengthen the walls of the vagina and the pelvic floor, which can increase sensation in the vagina during sex. To perform these exercises, think of the muscles you use when you’re holding in your urine. Squeeze internally, then release. Repeat this several times in a row, and try to do it for several minutes each day.
You can also practice a technique called "edging", which involves stimulating yourself (or having a partner stimulate you) close to the point of orgasm, then stopping or slowing down. Repeatedly coming close to the point of orgasm can make the actual orgasm that much stronger.
Most people consider climax to be the best part of a sexual encounter, but sex is still enjoyable without an orgasm. If you wish to orgasm more readily, or if you desire different types of orgasms, enjoy some time alone to see what you like, and have an open and honest conversation with your partner about trying different kinds of stimulation. Good communication can be one of the best ways to improve your sex life.

What does it feel like for a woman to have an orgasm?
As a man having had 3 sex partners, 2 short term and one long term for last 12 years, I think I can answer this question.
A female orgasm if a man really invests his time into it, can be quite intense.
My first sex partner was a girl in my college and she was quite reluctant to let it go fully when we were together. Yet, there was one time I remember we were in her house and in her room doing it in the doggy style and really fast as her parents were out for some time only, and I was rubbing her clitoris frantically while thrusting inside when she came, she gave a low painful squeal like never be

My first sex partner was a girl in my college and she was quite reluctant to let it go fully when we were together. Yet, there was one time I remember we were in her house and in her room doing it in the doggy style and really fast as her parents were out for some time only, and I was rubbing her clitoris frantically while thrusting inside when she came, she gave a low painful squeal like never before and fell on her knees and her hips kept throbbing for a while. I felt alarmed at first thinking something had happened to her and it took me a while to realize that she had an intense orgasm! But that kind of experience did not repeat and the reason I think was probably because we always did it outside our homes, and she was not too comfortable with it.
My second partner, also from my first job, years later, always used to grit her teeth and curse with four letter words as she came. And I dont really remember an outlier experience with her.
I have been with my wife now for 12 years now and know her really well ! She can have really intense orgasms. With my wife, these kind of orgasms were possible only after 3 years into the marriage and a year after we had our baby boy. Ironical! but true, our sex life took off 3 years after our marriage. In fact, I assume that was the phase when I think she really began enjoying sex just for it! I remember one occasion when after intense love making for nearly an hour past mid-night (we never have hour long sex now and I miss it!), her orgasm was unusually long and she kept shivering rhythmically all over and as she came with my fingers on her clitoris, I could clearly feel a warm liquid gush out and wetting the sheets beneath. I cannot really say what had happened and she was too embarrassed about it, but we just laughed after that, changes the sheets quickly and it never happened again. Then again on one occasion she cried right after an intense one as she held me tightly! I was obviously alarmed at first but later it became evident it was due to the intensity of the climax and the emotions! So yes, orgasms can be really intense for women and can be followed by intense emotions as well.
The longer the foreplay and the act, the more intense the orgasms! That is the rule at least for the women I have been with. But intense orgasms don’t necessarily mean your woman is satisfied or all is well. As my wife says, it is the closeness she feels with me during the act that is most important to her than anything else - orgasm included. So I guess it is the overall sense of intimacy, coupled with right foreplay and emotional connect that makes a woman sexually satisfied.

I can’t speak for other women but I have had more than one kind of orgasm. [I think you mean orgasm.]
As a teenage virgin, pleasing myself by hand, the orgasm became predictable as a nice warm feeling around my vulva; lips and clitoris. The warmth gradually became a tingle and then at the end a sudden surge of “pressure” inside me in that area. It took about 3 minutes if I was urgent but could be spaced out to 30 minutes or more if I was being leisurely. I learned to really enjoy the build-up; the gradual change of feelings and the knowledge that the climax is coming.

I learned to really enjoy the build-up; the gradual change of feelings and the knowledge that the climax is coming.
Then I found “toys” and they produced a different orgasm because they were inside me for at least part of the time. I had two vibrating dildos: one penis-shaped and about 5 inches long, the other just a straight type about 8 inches long and 2 inches wide. Then the orgasms came deeper inside my body, up towards my belly button. I would press on my belly with the hand not using the toy. The build-up was more exciting and insistent. The final orgasm extended out of my groin, sometimes into my chest. Just a big buzz of pressure and breathlessness.
Making love with a man a few years later brought a different orgasm if he was good in bed. Then I learned to climax from his tongue and from his hands, but never from just penetration. I had to educate my men-friends to play with me properly. A tongue-orgasm is emotional and psychological, as well as physical. The warm buzz in my lower body spread out to the inside of my thighs as he was lying there; and I got my legs round his body. Men who couldn’t please me like this did not last long.
Then at age of 20, I got into tightlaced corseting, and the orgasm developed further. Both toys and love-making create a massive whole body buzz and climax that leaves me breathless and tingling right up to my throat and breasts. One or two men seemed not to be interested enough to make love with a tight corseted woman and they had to go.
Ever since then, I have insisted that my love-making has included my tiny waist and the overall pressure of the corset. I met my husband at the age of 22 and he made love to me laced in to my tightest at that time; and he was as entranced as I was excited. At the start, his climax came too soon but he concentrated on my pleasure and learned to delay his “shoot.”
Now, my orgasm when tightlaced is whole-body excitement for all the time he is inside me or playing on me with tongue— and sometimes with toys. The build-up quickly becomes a whole skin tingle, my thighs and buttocks twitch, inside up to my breasts seems to feel a stoking sensation and pressure. Then, at my climax, the buzzing gripping breathlessness takes over my whole body. I feel my spine arching as far as it can in the tight corset. My waist feels even smaller than it is [20 inches] inside the corset. My breasts tingle and seem to vibrate inside as my nipples expand. Even my throat and jaw gets tense and buzzes with pleasure sensations. Climax lasts for 30 seconds, sometimes longer, and I subside into a weak floppy female. Just occasionally, I keep him playing or licking and I reach a second orgasm within a few seconds. At that stage, he can do what he wants for his pleasure, and I know he will not hurt me. We experiment with positions before and after my climax but all that matters to me is to be tightlaced.
I’m lucky; he is perfect for me. We have two children; both conceived with me ultra tightlaced and enjoying orgasms.
Sorry this is so long. Does that give you some idea?
I’ve had a wide variety of feeling experiences with orgasms.
When I was young I had a lot of sexual partners. I’ve had fewer in my 20s, and I’m a whole lot more careful and selective than I was as a teen. I probably had my first ever orgasm on my own! I would hump stuffed animals and push (clean, smooth) hairbrush handles, and similarly sized and shaped items, inside my vagina. From a very early age I was somehow aware of sexuality and arousal, and I managed to find books about sexuality and learn about it all on my own before adults introduced it to me in any direct way. A lot of things turned

From a very early age I was somehow aware of sexuality and arousal, and I managed to find books about sexuality and learn about it all on my own before adults introduced it to me in any direct way. A lot of things turned me on. I really did not need another person to help me out - though after not too long, I tried it out, and at times, it was all right, too.
My first orgasm was probably a clitoral orgasm. Maybe with some G-spot in there, too. Which actually are sort of the same thing - but I’ll get into that later in this answer…
Apparently many women in American society have never experienced orgasms. this is a statistic I’ve seen many times over in my life, and you can find it easily on the internet. Many people attribute this to the lack of knowledge and empowerment about women’s anatomy, and capactiy for pleasure. Lots of taboo. And especially the lack of knowledge about CLITORUSES! A lot of modern sexual education - maybe not all the stuff taught in publi schools but the more thorough “feminist” programs - emphasize the clitorus. It is more than just a little erectile “nub” on the vulva - it also extends within the body, possibly creating the G-spot and other sensitive and pleasurable nerve centers.
Somehow this was never me - the person ignorant of the clit. And despite the fact that some of my sexual choices back then were not those I’d necessaily like now, and despite the fact that at times my consent was questionable (which is the experience of many young women - and hopefully sex ed can touch more on consent and boundaries for our society’s well-being) nearly all the people who ever went near my vulva either already knew about the clit, or were taught by me.
However, I did not know there were multiple types of orgasms.
In recent years I’ve become more enamored with a tantric/sacred approach to sexuality and orgasm. Mostly this means integrated my spiritual practices and high sensitivity with my sexuality. Instead of being elsewhere in my mind while being involved in a sexual act, for example, I embrace being fully present in all the intense and profround sensations. On this path I’ve read and studied with some teachers a bit. I learned from the beginnign of exploring tantric approach that there is indeed such thing s a vaginal orgasm - an orgasm not even related to any clit stimulation. Not that they need be separate.
The basic idea is that there are two major categories of orgasm: expansive and contractive/peak. When done separate from the other, they actually release very different chemical responses in the body! Contractive orgasms, while easier to achieve in some ways, also have their downsides. It’s a bit hard to find really expansive (ha) research on this, probably because mostly because women’s pleasure is taboo, but here’s a bit:
The main idea is that contractive/peak orgasms bring on dopamine and prolactin production, whereas expansive orgasms bring on ocytocin production. Contractive orgasms have a tense, high-pitched, build-up kind of feel to them. All this attention goes to one spot, such as my clit or g-spot, and amps up and up and up, until I have a sort of surrender feeling and then the pleasureable sensitivty spread to other parts
