climax / peak
'der Höhepunkt' and 'der Orgasmus' can mean the same thing in a sexual context. 'Orgasmus' is the direct and precise word for the physical sexual climax. In this context, 'Höhepunkt' is a somewhat more indirect or cautious formulation. Outside this topic, however, 'Höhepunkt' also has other meanings, for example the most exciting moment of a story. That is why 'Orgasmus' is more precise when the sexual meaning is clearly intended.
