Bleeding during intercourse, is this normal?
Vaginal bleeding during sex can be explained by several reasons and is, in any case, not normal. Blood loss can be due to a lack of vaginal lubrication, to sudden movements during the romantic relationship, to a sexually transmitted infection such as chlamydia. But also to benign tumors located in the cervix such as polyps, fibroids, or an infection of the cervix. “In the event of bleeding, it is imperative to consult a gynecologist and to dwell on this problem” insists Catherine Solano.
How to solve lubrication problems?
Long foreplay are essential to improve lubrication. If this first solution is not sufficient, you can use lubricants without any restriction since they do not present any health risk. Catherine Solano recommends a long-lasting gel that contains hyaluronic acid like Monasens® or Oxens®. “In addition to the classic lubricating effect, this substance significantly improves comfort, as it draws water into the vagina. The lubricating effect is thus prolonged and eliminates the need to use it during intercourse. Used three times a week, these latest generation lubricants guarantee continuous hydration. “
Strength training of the perineum is also very effective in improving lubrication. “Because exercising the muscles that surround the vagina increases blood circulation in this area and maintains better lubrication,” explains Catherine Solano.
Can a vagina be too large?
There is no such thing as a too large vagina. Indeed, the walls of the vagina touch each other. On the other hand, the muscles that surround the vagina may be insufficiently toned. Muscle building of the perineum performed by a physiotherapist helps to re-educate and strengthen the muscles of the vagina. And having a muscular perineum increases sexual pleasure. To combine business with pleasure, you can also use Geisha balls. These vaginal balls are two balls attached by a rope that is placed in the vagina. Each sphere contains a steel ball which, under the effect of vaginal contractions, rub together and thus trigger sexual pleasure. But, they also stimulate contractions of the muscles around the vagina, which over time increases their potency.
Can the hymen tear easily?
The hymen is a thin membrane stretched like a drum in the vagina with one or more openings. It is located very close to the entrance to the vagina. When we put something in it, we can widen the natural opening of the hymen, thus tearing it partially or entirely. This is what happens when you insert a tampon or a finger and obviously during penetration.
Does a muscular perineum necessarily increase sexual pleasure?
Yes. That of the woman and that of man. A well-muscled perineum makes it possible to feel much more intravaginal sensations and the female orgasm therefore comes more easily. And if the perineum is toned, the woman manages, during penetration, to provide, by contraction, more sustained caresses around the sex of her partner …
Can we get “stuck” during sex?
Yes, it is very rare, but possible! This “penis captivus” explains Catherine Solano, “can occur when the muscles of the perineum of women involuntarily contract very strongly. The vagina tightens and can then enclose the penis. Fortunately, this sticky situation does not continue, as your partner eventually loses his erection. But, if not, there is a solution. All you have to do is do a digital rectal examination which, by physical reflex, will release the contraction. Man will be “free” again.
