  "account": "The female orgasm is an intense experience characterized by a heightened sense of pleasure. When a woman becomes sexually aroused, her genital blood flow increases, causing swelling and heightened sensitivity in her vulva and clitoris. Her heart rate, blood pressure, and breathing intensify, and her muscles may tense or contract as she approaches the climax. Women can experience a single orgasm or multiple orgasms in quick succession, which some describe as distinct events or as a series of ripples following a larger wave. Interestingly, the female orgasm differs from the male orgasm in that it doesn't necessarily signify the end of a sexual encounter and can be followed by further stimulation, much like an earthquake followed by aftershocks or even a tsunami of female ejaculation.",
  "summary": "The female orgasm remains one of sexuality’s great mysteries; Exploring biology, psychology and personal experience, this book explains why women experience pleasure differently, what influences orgasm and why common myths persist",
