Get ready to have your mind blown ladies. There's a debate going on in scientific community claiming that women can experience orgasms through vaginal stimulation or clitoral; while others claim that both types of orgasms are actually the same thing, just accessed from different points in the body.

The most recent study set out to see which theory was correct by using an ultrasound along with a flat probe and a vaginal probe on "three healthy volunteers."
We used functional sonography of the stimulated clitoris either during manual self-stimulation of the external clitoris or during vaginal penetration with a wet tampon.

The sagittal scans obtained during external stimulation and vaginal penetration demonstrated that the root of the clitoris is not involved with external clitoral stimulation. In contrast, during vaginal stimulation, because of the movements and displacements, the whole CUV complex and the clitoral roots in particular are involved, showing functional differences depending on the type of stimulation. The color signal indicating flow speed in the veins mirrored the anatomical changes.
In short, while both types of orgasms involve some clitoral action, the parts that are responding are completely different.
