Summary

Women who are unable to achieve orgasm compared to women who have normal orgasmic function may have different clitoral anatomy and different hormone levels. The investigators hypothesis is that women who have difficulty with orgasm may have a clitoris that is closer to the vagina and may have higher testosterone levels. Pelvic MRI will be used to observe whether clitoral measurements differ between women with normal orgasmic function vs. those with anorgasmia.

Detailed description

Women unable with anorgasmia and those with normal orgasmic function will undergo pelvic MRI so that clitoral measurements can be taken and then compared for differences.
