Frequently asked questions about sexual health

For years, I have been working as a gynecologist whose clinical focus is pelvic and sexual health, and I constantly receive many questions about sexual health. I receive sexual health inquiries from both patients who want expert advice and concerned friends looking for reliable information. Surprisingly, the number of questions I get about sex often outnumber those about more complex medical concerns. Some of these questions are easy, while others delve into the complexities of human sexuality. While I aim to offer comprehensive answers, the reality is that the field of sexual health is vast and ever-changing, with always more to learn. My goal for this research is to shed light on some of the secrets of sex and inspire others to embrace a deeper understanding of their sexuality. I am fortunate to have a network of colleagues and patients who continually add to the expertise I acquire through my medical life. Many of you have probably thought about similar issues but hesitated to speak up. Here are the three most frequently asked questions about the health of sex.

Does size really matter?

This question keeps popping up in my inbox – hundreds of times. When it comes to whether penis size matters, the answer is simple. The importance of penis size, like any other physical feature, varies from person to person. When choosing a spouse, some people emphasize characteristics such as being thin or having a nice car, while others value penis size. For others, size may influence their opinion of beauty or sexual compatibility. Medically, size does not matter for fertility or orgasm. For owners of sinuses with a pelvic floor, a larger phallus can sometimes be met with discomfort, but this usually subsides. Regardless of size, individuals are fully capable of achieving orgasm and contributing to reproductive processes. If the pain continues, it’s obviously important to get checked out by your doctor. It’s no secret that when it comes to men’s health discussions, the topic of penis size often takes center stage. From locker room banter to online forums, size fixation can lead to various insecurities and misconceptions. However, what many don’t understand is the relationship between penis size and pelvic floor health. The pelvic floor plays a crucial role in men’s overall well-being, yet it is an area that is often overlooked or misunderstood. It is made up of muscles, ligaments and tissues to provide support for the bladder, bowel and, yes, the penis. Dysfunction in this area can lead to a number of issues, including erectile dysfunction, urinary incontinence, and even pelvic pain.

So, how does penis size relate to pelvic floor health? It has not so much to do with the size itself but the strength and function of the pelvic floor muscles. Like any other muscle group in the body, the pelvic floor muscles require proper conditioning and maintenance to function optimally. Data suggests that men with weaker pelvic floor muscles may experience difficulty achieving and maintaining an erection. These muscles play a vital role in controlling blood flow to the penis during arousal. In addition, weak pelvic floor muscles can contribute to premature ejaculation and urinary problems. While penis size does not directly correlate with pelvic floor health, addressing pelvic floor muscle strength can positively impact sexual performance and overall well-being. Pelvic floor exercises, commonly known as Kegels, can help strengthen these muscles and improve ejaculation control and erectile function. In addition, maintaining a healthy lifestyle can also contribute to pelvic floor health. Regular exercise, a balanced diet and proper hydration can support muscle function throughout the body, including the pelvic floor, for both men and women. Remember, it’s not just about size – it’s about strength and function.

How can I achieve orgasm during sex?

I get a lot of questions about orgasm, but how to achieve orgasm during sex tops them all. When answering this question, I always advise people to remember that everyone’s experience is unique. Some people find it easy to achieve orgasm, but others find it more difficult. About 15% to 20% of women report having difficulty orgasming with penetrative sex alone. Understanding what triggers orgasms in women and how to incorporate that into sexual activity with a partner can be a journey of discovery. In our society, romantic ideas are usually more acceptable than sexual ones, which can lead to arousal and climax.

While it’s often presented as the ultimate goal of sex, it’s important to remember that a variety of stimuli can trigger orgasms, and focusing solely on intercourse may not be the most successful technique for everyone. Finally, the key is open communication with one’s relationship, experimentation, and a willingness to explore what works best for both parties. It’s also important to remember that there is no one-size-fits-all technique for achieving orgasm, and that putting pleasure and connection first in sexual experiences is critical.

Professional advice

Communication is key:

Open and honest communication with your partner is essential. Discussing your desires, preferences and any concerns can create a safe and supportive environment for you to explore sexual pleasure together.

Explore your body:

Understanding your body and what feels good to you is vital. Take time to explore yourself through masturbation. Discovering your erogenous zones and what stimulation works best for you can enhance your ability to achieve orgasm during sex.

Pregame Importance:

Foreplay plays an important role in arousal and can significantly increase the likelihood of reaching orgasm during sex. Engage in activities that build anticipation, such as kissing, caressing, and sensual touching. Experiment with different techniques and pay attention to your partner’s responses.

By staying informed and proactive about reproductive health, individuals can take control of their fertility

Can I get pregnant during my period?

This is one of the most troubling questions for women. The menstrual cycle, with its various stages and hormonal fluctuations, can sometimes be confusing, especially when it comes to understanding fertility and the possibility of pregnancy. Understanding the menstrual cycle is a great first step. The menstrual cycle is divided into several phases, with menstruation marking the beginning of the cycle. During menstruation, the lining of the uterus sheds, resulting in vaginal bleeding. This phase usually lasts from three to seven days. Ovulation is the process by which an egg is released from the ovary and is available for fertilization. Ovulation usually occurs around the middle of the menstrual cycle, about 14 days before the start of the next period. The fertile window, when pregnancy is most likely to occur, usually spans a few days before and after ovulation. Sperm can survive in the female reproductive tract for several days after ejaculation, waiting for an egg to be released at ovulation. The exact lifespan of sperm varies, but can range from three to five days under optimal conditions.

To answer the age old question – while the chance of getting pregnant during your period is lower compared to other times of the menstrual cycle, it is not impossible. Factors such as irregular cycles, shorter menstrual periods and early ovulation can increase the risk of pregnancy during menstruation. Additionally, if there is sperm in the reproductive tract before ovulation, fertilization can occur once an egg is released. One thing to remember is that each person’s menstrual cycle is unique and factors such as cycle length, hormone levels and fertility can vary from person to person. While some people have regular and predictable cycles, others may experience irregularities that make it more difficult to time ovulation. In short, the chance of getting pregnant during your period is less compared to other times of the menstrual cycle, but it is not zero.

By staying informed and proactive about reproductive health, individuals can take control of their fertility and make choices that align with their goals and preferences. Understanding our body and our cycles is key to empowering ourselves in the context of both our pelvic and sexual health. I always encourage my patients to ask questions and come to their appointments ready to talk. I hope this helped shed some light on some frequently asked women’s health questions!
