<\/p>\nLove Island star Yewande Biala has never experienced an orgasm and wants to find out why.<\/p>\n
The biochemist and author has teamed up with Channel 4 to use her personal experience and explore the world of female self-pleasure.<\/p>\n
Brought up in a strict religious family, she struggled with a lot of anxiety and shame about sex.<\/p>\n
Masturbation was preached to be \u2018"the dirtiest sin" and she didn\u2019t even find out that women could have orgasms until she was 19 or 20.<\/p>\n

Opening up about filming the hour-long documentary, which airs on Thursday (August 31), Yewande told Daily Star: "It started three years ago. <\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
"I went on a podcast and we were talking about sex, a very casual conversation and one of the girls asked if I'd ever faked an orgasm.<\/p>\n
"I said 'no' and then they said 'but you've had an orgasm haven't you?' and I said 'no I haven't'.<\/p>\n
"I didn't think it was a big deal but everyone else did and was so surprised and I think it made a few headlines, and I was approached a few years ago to potentially make a documentary but I shut it down straight away.<\/p>\n

"But they came back last year, I was a little bit older and I was ready to actually maybe start my own journey and do a little bit of an investigation."<\/p>\n
Yewande meets other women, scientists and therapists to hear their stories and opinions in the special programme.<\/p>\n
Trying out various techniques, experimenting with sex toys and visiting a sex club all form part of her research as she attempts to learn everything there is to know about the complexity of the female orgasm in a bid to experience one herself for the first time.<\/p>\n

She said: "I learned so much and hopefully I can educate someone or maybe there's someone that can relate to me or grew up in a religious household or a household that never talks about sex and had a similar journey to me.<\/p>\n
"I remember one of the things I said to producers was 'don't tell me what we're doing' because I won't get a wink of sleep and be thinking about it every single day.<\/p>\n
"They would literally tell me the day before 'oh you're going to a sex party' and I think it was for the best."<\/p>\n
