The clitoris is an amazing organ, and the “pea” we can see from the outside is just the tip of the iceberg.
In fact, the clitoris is mainly composed of the clitoral head, the spongy body and the clitoral foot, in an upside-down “Y” shape. The only thing that is exposed on the surface of the body is the head of the clitoris.
The physiological structure of the clitoris is very similar to that of the male penis, and it also has a clitoral foreskin, similar to the foreskin of the penis, which protects the “little bean” from excessive damage from the outside world.
The clitoral head is the most sensitive part of a woman’s body, with more than 8,000 nerve endings (two to three times as many as the head of the penis), and external stimulation of the clitoral head leads to clitoral orgasm, which is extremely important in terms of sexual response.
The spongy body becomes engorged with blood and erect during sexual arousal, just like a penis. The clitoris, however, has no venous plexus and is weakly erect, so it can become engorged in a short period of time and then relax, which is why women can have multiple orgasms.
The traditional view of vaginal orgasm or G-spot orgasm is essentially stimulation of the clitoral foot around the vagina, so the vaginal orgasm is essentially a clitoral orgasm.
The clitoral foot has fewer nerve endings than the clitoral head, which is why vaginal orgasms are more difficult to achieve.
Some people worry that masturbation can be too intense and damage the clitoris. What should I do if I can only achieve clitoral orgasm but not vaginal orgasm?
Unless you masturbate 24 hours a day, masturbation is usually not damaging to the clitoris. It is also not recommended to masturbate too often, otherwise you are likely to gradually become less sensitive to stimulation, which means that you will not be able to reach orgasm as easily in the future.
It is important to note that sex is ultimately a physical and mental exercise, orgasm is not the ultimate goal of sex, no need to deliberately force it, relax and enjoy the moment with your body is more important.
