Orgasm for women is subjective, there is a lack of agreement among sexologists on what constitutes female orgasm. A period of increasing sexual arousal precedes orgasm:

  • Direct clitoral stimulation
  • Indirect clitoral stimulation
  • Vaginal stimulation (likely still stimulating the clitoral nerves)

80% of women only orgasm with clitoral stimulation.
