G-Spot - What is it?

What is it?

by Carolyn A. Gerdes, Ph.D.

The G-Spot is a small mass of tissue about the size of a pea that is located approximately two inches in from the opening of the vagina - midway between the pubic bone and the cervix. The G-Spot is often difficult for a woman to locate on her own (unless she is in a sitting or squatting position). However, with the assistance of a partner, the G-Spot can usually be easily found. At first, when light pressure is applied to this region, many women experience the urge to urinate. This feeling discourages many women from continuing for fear that they will lose control of their bladder. However, this sensation normally subsides in a short while and gives way to feelings of intense sexual pleasure. During stimulation, the area also typically enlarges to about the size of a walnut. In addition, many women report that stimulation of this region allows them to routinely experience multiple orgasms. Finally, in some women, stimulation of the G-Spot may cause ejaculation.

Remember though not to get hung up on whether or not you can find your own G-Spot or that of a partner. All individuals are different when it comes to their bodies and sex. Not all women even find stimulation enjoyable. If you want to explore, it can be a lot of fun. But do not be upset if it does not work for you. Despite what you many have heard, this is not some "magic button"; it is simply a pleasurable area to stimulate in some women.
