I can't find my G-spot!

GYNOISSUES

FOR many of us women, the existence of the G-spot is as fantastical as the existence of Santa Claus, and something that only the innocent believe is really hidden away, waiting for that 'come hither' touch.

Even doctors and researchers have battled with the G-spot issue, as many women and their partners complain that it's elusive.

"Some people think it exists and some people think it doesn't," gynaecologist at the Ripon Surgi-Centre Dr Charles Rockhead said. "But anatomically it is supposed to be on the vaginal wall on the skene gland," he explained.

While many women may have difficulty locating their G-spot or having someone else locate it, Dr Rockhead advises that the greatest stimulation is the opposite sensation.

Therefore, if the vaginal area is hot, something cold should be applied, or if it is cold then the application of something hot might help.

He also noted that women can in fact search for the spot themselves.

"You can put the finger inside the vagina and press upwards," he said. He added that it is as a result of the existence of, or the search for the G-spot why cunnilingus has become so popular.

"That is why cunnilingus is such a big thing. It (tongue) is centred around that general area," he said.

Meanwhile, as women continue on the quest for the G-spot, in many North American countries, cosmetic surgery, known as G-spot augmentation, is done to attempt to heighten the sensation. In this surgery, collagen is injected around the area where the G-spot is said to be located.

The G-spot is believed to be a small spongy pad that wraps around the urethra. If that pad is stimulated through the vaginal wall during sexual arousal, it is said to produce one of the most intense orgasms a woman could ever experience.

It is believed that upon discovery, appropriate stimulation will cause the female to take a deep breath and push down (as if delivering a baby), with a feeling of wanting to urinate.

During G-spot orgasm, a large amount of fluid may suddenly gush out through the urethra.

It is difficult to estimate how much fluid is expelled.

The fluid is colourless, and does not cause a stain.

While ignorant persons may mistake this fluid for urine, bear in mind that urine is yellowish and carries a smell.
