"Our laboratory, the Komisaruk group, has consistently found widespread, regional brain activation leading up to and peaking at orgasm, including frontal and temporal brain regions, while conversely, the Georgiadis group report diametrically opposite results in which the frontal cortex—specifically the right medial orbitofrontal, left lateral orbifrontal, and left dorsolateral cortices—and right amygdala were deactivated during orgasm. And also in contrast with our findings of widespread activation during orgasm, the Dutch group has reported finding reliable orgasm-related activation only in the cerebellum (Georgiadis et al., 2006), and more recently, the pons (Huynhet al., 2013)"
