Genetic influences on variation in female orgasmic function: a twin study.

Biology letters - 22 Sept 2005

Dunn Kate M, Cherkas Lynn F, Spector Tim D

Abstract excerpt

Orgasmic dysfunction in females is commonly reported in the general population with little consensus on its aetiology. We performed a classical twin study to explore whether there were observable genetic influences on female orgasmic dysfunction.
