FREQUENTLY AVOIDED QUESTIONS

1. Why do I bleed sometimes during or after sex

Light bleeding during or after vaginal, oral or anal sex is common for many women. There are many different causes, including:

I. Spotting caused by your regular menstrual cycle, your birth control, pregnancy or menopause
II. Inadequate lubrication before penetration
III. Urinary tract infection
IV. Cervical polyps (a benign polyp or tumor on the surface of the cervical canal)
V. Certain sexually transmitted infections like gonorrhea or chlamydia
VI. Having sex in a rough or uncomfortable position (the vaginal opening and the skin on the outside of the vagina are sensitive which makes it susceptible to abrasions)

However, heavy or persistent bleeding after sex may signal a serious health problem, especially if you’ve already experienced menopause. If you notice any bleeding during or after sex, it’s best to talk to your doctor to determine the cause of the bleeding, and whether anything needs to be done to treat it.

2. My guy loves receiving oral sex — but my gag reflex is so sensitive. Is there anything I can do to make the process easier for me?

The first step to giving (and receiving!) great oral sex is to relax. Sometimes, the more you obsess about your gag reflex during oral sex, the more likely you are to trigger it. Remember: You’re in control of the process and your guy wants you to be comfortable (after all, the more comfortable you are, the more likely you are to perform oral sex, right?) Breathe through your nose, and go as slow as you need to at first. Have your partner lie down or sit, so that you have more control over his movements — that way, he’ll be less likely to thrust past a point where you’re comfortable.

And remember, your mouth doesn’t have to do all the work — use your hands!

Your hands can help stimulate the lower part of his penis while your mouth focuses on the more sensitive tip. You can also use your tongue to stimulate his penis. That way, his penis won’t go too far back into your throat, causing you to feel uncomfortable.

Don’t forget: There’s no one right way to give your partner pleasurable oral sex. Experiment with different positions and techniques until you find one that works for you.

3. Sometimes I pass gas during sex. Why does this happen? Is it normal?

Are you sure you’re passing gas? You might be queefing, a normal occurrence caused by the physics of intercourse. Your partner’s mouth, fingers or penis push air into the vagina, trapping it there. When that air gets expelled, it makes that embarrassing fart-like sound.

If you are passing gas, don’t feel bad — it happens! The vagina runs parallel to part of the rectum and colon where it can create pressure that can expel gas. If it’s problematic, take a quick trip to the bathroom before sex.

Regardless of whether you’re queefing or passing gas, it’s completely normal — you’re human! You can ignore it, or discuss it—just wait until after sex to talk about it. Another option? Giggle together.
