Everything You Need To Know About Your Vagina by emitheo(m): 1:55pm On Aug 13, 2015 |
It has more nicknames than possibly any other female bodypart (sideways smile, anyone?), its own doctor, and the ability to bring you tons of pleasure — not to mention pain,particularly if you plan to have a baby. Yet the vagina remains a mystery to many. In fact, a Cosmo poll found that more than 60 percent of women say they don't know a lot about their vadge — which is unfortunate, because a new study reports that chicks who feel confident about their down-there area have more orgasms. So i've put together a list of 15 bits of info to boost your V-zone comfort level.These are the crucial facts about how it functions, keepingit healthy, and increasing the amount of bliss it brings you. 1. It's just one part of your down- there region Most of us use the word vagina to refer to our private parts. But technically, the term describes only the narrow canal that runsi nside your body from the vulva (the visible area that includes the inner and outer labia,clitoris, and perineum)to the cervix (the lower portion of the uterus). 2. Vaginas generally look alike ...On the inside, that is.What does vary is the vulva. The clitoris rangesfrom 1 to 1¼ inches(including the hood), the outer labia can be barely there or a few incheslong, and the inner labia,which are reminiscent of butterfly wings, might be hidden or hang past the outer lips. Most women's labia aren't perfectly symmetrical — one side is usually bigger than the other. 3. The surrounding area often can be different colors The shade of your southern region isn't necessarily related to the tone ofthe rest of your skin.Many light-skinned women have brown orpurplish labia, while a darker-hued chick can have a lighter vulva. You also can have different colors in different areas — for example, your labia could be on the darkerside yet your perineumcould be pale pink. 4. Its walls are pleated Usually, the walls of thevagina lie compressedagainst each other. Butwhen they need to open—to accommodate a tamponor penis—the sides separateand widen, kind oflike the way an umbrellaopens or a pleated skirtunfolds. The vagina typically swells from half aninch wide to 2 inches wide. And it can get even bigger — after all, a baby might have to pass through it! 5. Relax — a well-hung guy won't stretch it out... As explained above, the vagina is incredibly elastic and can fit a supersizepenis — yet it always returns to its usual tightness after sex. But it might be a different story onceyou pop out a baby, assome moms say they dofeel looser. You can tightenup by doing certain exercises(see number 7). 6. ...Nor will it"revirginize" if you go througha long dry spell There's a rumor out therethat if you find yourself in a no-booty bout, your vagina will become so tight that getting back in the saddle will hurt. It's totally untrue. While your vaginal muscles may be tense at first, penetration shouldn't be painful at all. 7. It benefits from regular exercise Just as working yourbiceps firms up yourarms, working your pubococcygeusmuscle — amain muscle of yourpubic region — can toneup your vadge. Besidesgiving you a tighter gripduring sex, it also maymake it easier to climax.Here's how to exerciseyour V: Clamp down as ifyou're stopping yoururine flow, hold for 10seconds, then release. Do2 sets of 10 to 20 a day;you'll notice a differenc ein about a month. 8. It's teeming with bacteria Don't get grossed out — they're the kind that keep bad micro organisms in check so you don't get an infection. One of thegood bacteria is lactobacilli,also found in yogurt.In fact, some gynos sayyou can help cure a yeastinfection by inserting a tablespoon of plain yogurt with live cultures intoyour vadge (put some ona tampon, and push it in). 9. It's self-cleaning No need to douche orwash the inside — your vagina cleans itself withdischarge (yep, that stuff has a function). Thesecretions flush out cellsfrom the vaginal wall,excess water, and bacteria.The only washing it needsis on the outside betweenthe labial folds andalong the perineum(use a mild, scent freesoap). 10. The hair around it isn't necessary Back in caveman times, pubes shielded the vagina from bacteria and trappedodor to attract men.Today, we have clothes toprotect us. And as for attracting a guy with yourhairy crotch, the oppositemay be true: Some guys are turned on by seeing a woman's bare V. 11. Its smell gets stronger during your cycle Speaking of scent, everyvagina has one. It tends tobe acidic before yourperiod and pungent afterward.Your scent also maybe more noticeable post-workout,because ofsweat glands, and duringsex, thanks to the naturallubrication you produce. 12. Getting it on does it good... Part of the reason sexfeels so amazing: Hoo- hastimulation, whether ornot you reach an O,releases feel-good hormones.Some gynos alsosay that having an orgasmeases cramps — an awesomereason to hit thesheets with your guy orhave solo sex when youhave your period. 13. ...But too much sex can throw it out of whack While regular action canrelax you, too much ina short period of time mayleave you chafed orinflamed down south orwith a urinary-tract infection.You're more likelyto get a UTI if you do it ontop or in missionary, since your guy's penis is supercloseto your urethra andcan push harmful bacteriain it. No need to give upthese poses though;peeing post-sex can keep a UTI at bay. 14. Discharge changes throughout your cycle Your vadge producesmore discharge — up to 2teaspoons a day — duringovulation; it tends to bethinner and clearer at thistime. Before your flow, it'screamier and thicker. If itever itches, burns, stinks,or looks like cottagecheese, see your gyno. 15. Things can't get lost up there Your vagina is not a blackhole. It's impossible foranything (like a tampon)to escape into youruterus — the cervix blocksoff access. But a tamponcan slip out of reach. Ifone does, fish it out whilesquatting and bearingdown. If that doesn't work,make an appointmentwith your gyno, who will pluck out the tamponquickly and painlessly.Note: Steer clear of puttingfood, even chocolatesyrup or whipped cream,up there. The sugar canlead to an infection. Source-Cosmopolitan |
