Purpose: Systematically review the literature on the influence of endogenous and exogenous factors on female orgasm was performed. Methods: A descriptive method of work was used with a systematic literature review with qualitative approach. Original and review articles and research in English and Slovenian were included in the research. Results: After the reviewing process, we found that the term orgasm does not have a precise definition. Two types of orgasm are best known, namely clitoral and vaginal orgasm. Clitoral orgasm is experienced by women during clitoral stimulation, and vaginal orgasm during sexual intercourse. Orgasmic disorders are very common in women, reported by 11-41% of women worldwide.

Culture, race, and upbringing also have a great influence. Discussion and conclusion: Disorders of orgasm or the non-occurrence of orgasm is still a common and complex problem among women. The brain and its function play a big role in a woman's orgasm. how the brain responds to various stimuli throughout the body. In the diploma work, we divided the factors into two groups, namely endogenous and exogenous factors.

Exogenous factors included the influence of culture, race, religion, education, and employment. As the female orgasm is a very complex matter, further research is needed on this topic.
