Hello guys, saw this online and I thought I should share...


The vagina doesnt need to be douched….It smells good already. Dont try to decorate. Dont believe him when he tells you it smells like rose petals when its supposed to smell like….
Its amazing how much misinformation is out there about the vagina. Given how fascinated our society is with the female body, youd think wed be a little more informed. But from what I discovered while soliciting questions for my book Whats Up Down There?

Questions Youd Only Ask Your Gynecologist If She Was Your Best Friend, many of us still have a lot to learn.

To help out, Ive compiled a list of 20 things I believe everyone should know about the vagina.

1. While men do pee out of the penis, women do not pee out of the vagina. There are three holes and countless other sexy structures. Learn to know your anatomy. Get a hand mirror and go to town. From front to back, the urethra is the first hole, the vagina is the second, and the anus is the third. Dont laugh! Youd be amazed how many people dont know this.
2. The vagina doesnt connect to your lung. If you lose something in there, dont worry. Reach in all the way and pull it out. Do not–I repeat, do not–go hunting for whatever youve lost with a pair of pliers. If you think you put something in there and you cant find it, chances are good that its simply not there. Think of your vagina as being like a sock. If you lose a banana in a sockit stays in the sock.

 

3. Yes, its true–your vagina can fall out. Not to belabor the sock metaphor, but it can turn inside out just like a worn out sweat sock and hang between your legs as you get older. But dont fret; this condition–called pelvic prolapse– can be fixed.

 

4. Contrary to popular mythology, theres no such thing as being revirginized. Once you lose it, its gone. Just so you know.

 

5. You can catch sexually transmitted diseases even if you use a condom. Sorry to break it to you, but the skin of the vulva can still touch infectious skin of the scrotum–and BAM!Warts. Herpes. Molluscum contagiosum. Pubic lice. So pick your partners carefully.

 

6. The vagina is like a bicep. Use it or lose it. If you dont have a partner, pick up a battery-operated boyfriend to help keep things healthy as you age. But don’t worry–it’s usually not an issue until after menopause, when fragile vaginal tissue can scar and shrink. If properly tended, your vagina will be able to pleasure you until the day you leave this life.

 

7. Every vulva is different and special. Some lips hang down. Some are tucked up neatly inside. Some are long. Some are short. Some are even. Some arent. All are beautiful. Youre perfect just the way you are.

 

8. Most women dont have orgasms from intercourse alone. The clitoris is where the action is. Most women who do orgasm during sex have figured out how to hit their sweet spot, either from positioning or from direct stimulation of the clitoris with fingers.

 

9. If youre hunting for your G Spot, be patient. Stimulating this area usually requires more time and deeper stimulation than most people think. Try using a finger in a come hither motion to stimulate the front wall of the vagina, where the G spot lives. If you cant find it, dont worry. Youre not alone. Many cant–and it’s definitely not critical to having a fulfilling romp in the hay.

 

10. How you choose to decorate is completely personal. Waxing, shaving, tattooing, piercing, or simply going au natural. It’s your choice, and don’t let anyone else pressure you into doing something that doesn’t resonate with you.

 

11. The vagina doesnt need to be douched. As Eve Ensler says, My vagina doesnt need to be cleaned up. It smells good already. Dont try to decorate. Dont believe him when he tells you it smells like rose petals when its supposed to smell like pussy. Thats what theyre doing trying to clean it up, make it smell like bathroom spray or a garden. All those douche sprays–floral, berry, rain. I dont want my pussy to smell like rain. All cleaned up like washing a fish after you cook it. I want to taste the fish. Thats why I ordered it. Amen, sister. I second that.

 

12. The only cancer a Pap smear screens for is cervical cancer. It doesnt check your ovaries, your uterus, or your colon, so even if you dont need yearly Paps, you still need to have a yearly pelvic exam.

 

13. How much vaginal discharge you make varies widely. Some normal, healthy women spew loads of discharge and need to wear panty liners every day. Others are bone dry. As long as you are not at risk of STD’s and you have no itching, burning, or odor, you’re probably just fine. If in doubt, see your gynecologist.

 

14. Menstrual blood is supposed to clot, so dont freak out. Usually, what you think are clots are just pieces of uterine lining. As long as youre not losing too much blood, small clots duringyour periodneed not concern you. Clots are just nature’s way of keeping you from bleeding too much. Blood is supposed to clot. It’s when the clots are large or you start to hemorrhage that we start to worry.

 

15. Lots of vaginas need help lubing up during sex, especially as you get older. Dont be afraid to slick on some lubricant like K-Y Jelly or Astroglide. Or try coconut oil, which is a great natural lubricant- but don’t blame me if you find yourself hankering for a post-coital macaroon.

 

16. Vaginal farts (some call them queefs or varts) happen to almost all women at one time or another, especially during sex or other forms of exercise. Dont be embarrassed. Youre perfectly normal.

 

17. Vaginas stretch out when you have babies vaginally. Its natural but it can leave you feeling a bit loosey goosey. Kegel exercises that contract the muscles of the vagina really do help. To do them, practice stopping the stream of urine when you pee. There–that’s the muscle! Now contract and relax it 10 X for three or more sets several times per day.

 

18. Some women do ejaculate during orgasm, but youre normal if you dont. The controversial female ejaculation most likely represents two different phenomena. If its a small amount of milky fluid, it likely comes from the paraurethral glands inside the urethra. If its a cup, its probably pee. Many times, it may be a little bit of both. But don’t stress out about peeing on yourself. Put a towel under you and surrender to the experience.

 

19. Sex shouldn’t hurt, but it does for many women. If you’re one of those women, see your doctor. So many women are too embarrassed to say anything, so they suffer in silence. There are things we docs can do to help you.

 

20. Safe sex (or even just orgasm alone) is good for you. Benefits include lowering your risk ofheart diseaseand stroke, reducing your risk of breast cancer, bolstering yourimmune system, helping you sleep, making you appear more youthful, improving your fitness, regulating menstrual cycles,relieving menstrual cramps, helping with chronic pain, reducing the risk ofdepression, lowering stress levels, and improving self esteem. So go at it, girlfriends
