AIM: Orgasm is the ultimate pleasurable sexual experience in sexual life, a phenomenon that is difficult to depict and uncertain. A satisfying sexual life plays a vital role in the physical and mental health of men and women, the relationship between husband and wife, and family harmony. In the past, it was thought that female orgasm was related to the G-spot in the vagina, but it has never been proven. In this review, we focus on the anatomy of the vaginal vestibule, vagina, Urethra, Skene gland, and clitoris to explore the origin of female orgasm...

BACKGROUND: Vulvovaginal laxity, atrophic vaginitis, and orgasmic dysfunction are not only aesthetic but also sexual problems. Autologous fat grafting (AFG) facilitates tissue rejuvenation through the effects of adipose-derived stem cells; the fat grafts serve as soft-tissue filler. However, few studies have reported the clinical outcomes of patients undergoing vulvovaginal AFG. OBJECTIVES: In this study, we describe a new technique, Micro-Autologous Fat Transplantation (MAFT), for AFG in the vulvovaginal area...

BACKGROUND: Previous studies linking compulsive sexual behavior disorder (CSBD) and sexual health have shown mixed results, which could be due to the fact that different CSBD facets may have differential relationships with sexual functioning. AIM: As CSBD is a multidimensional disorder, we wanted to investigate whether distinct CSBD domains are differentially related to sexual health. METHODS: Two online studies were conducted-the first on a convenience sample (812 Polish participants; mean [SD] age, 22...

Stress urinary incontinence (SUI) results from an increase in intravesical pressure, which exceeds the pressure at which the urethra remains closed. Symptoms cause social and sexual intercourse discomfort directly or indirectly, which affect health-related quality of life and are associated with pelvic floor muscle (PFM) dysfunction. We aimed to verify the variation in strength and PFM bioelectrical activity and sexual function in women with SUI. Additionally, we analyzed the impact of this dysfunction on quality of life...

BACKGROUND: Bladder cancer (BC) treatments are known to be invasive; nevertheless, research into the long-term effects is limited and in the context of sexual function often male focussed. Female sexual dysfunction (FSD) has been reported in up to 75% of female patients. This systematic scoping review examines the literature on sexual consequences of BC in female patients. OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to systematically evaluate the evidence on female sexual function in BC to identify areas of unmet need and research priorities...

REVIEW
Liliana Arias-Castillo, Lina García, Herney Andrés García-Perdomo
The anatomy and physiology of the female orgasm are often neglected. The female orgasm is a normal psychophysiological function to all women, and some even can achieve ejaculation as part of the normal physiological response at the height of sexual arousal. The complexity of female sexuality requires a deep understanding of genital anatomy. The clitoris is the principal organ for female pleasure. The vaginal stimulation of the anterior vaginal wall led women to orgasm due to the stimulation of the clitourethrovaginal complex and not due to stimulation of a particular organ called the G spot in the anterior distal vaginal wall...

STUDY QUESTION: Does sexual intercourse enhance the cycle fecundability in women without known subfertility? SUMMARY ANSWER: Sexual intercourse (regardless of timing during the cycle) was associated with cycle characteristics suggesting higher fecundability, including longer luteal phase, less premenstrual spotting and more than 2 days of cervical fluid with estrogen-stimulated qualities. WHAT IS KNOWN ALREADY: Human females are spontaneous ovulators, experiencing an LH surge and ovulation cyclically, independent of copulation...

BACKGROUND: Postpartum pelvic floor dysfunction is known to affect the quality of life of women and the methods to treat it are more complex with majority requiring training under supervision. AIM: To compare the efficacy of sexually induced orgasm along with Kegels exercises versus Kegels exercises alone as a treatment method to enhance postpartum pelvic floor muscle strength and sexual function in primiparous women undergoing uncomplicated vaginal deliveries.

In a confidential U.S. nationally representative survey of 2,525 adults (1300 women, 1225 men), we examined participants' event-level sexual behaviors, predictors of pleasure and orgasm, and perceived actual and ideal duration of sex, by gender and age. Event-level kissing, cuddling, vaginal intercourse, and oral sex were prevalent. Sexual choking was more prevalent among adults under 40. While women and men reported a similar actual duration of sex, men reported a longer ideal duration. Participants with same-sex partners reported a longer ideal duration than those with other-sex partners...

Background and Objectives : Cervical cancer is a leading cause of mortality among women. Chemo-radiation followed by interventional radiotherapy (IRT) is the standard of care for stage IB-IVA FIGO. Several studies have shown that image-guided adaptive IRT resulted in excellent local and pelvic control, but it is associated with vaginal toxicity and intercourse problems. The purpose of this review is to evaluate the dysfunctions of the sexual sphere in patients with cervical cancer undergoing different cervix cancer treatments...

Sexual dysfunctions are common experiences that often impact negatively on the health and well-being of affected individuals. We used baseline questionnaire data from 62,675 Danes aged 15-89 years, who participated in the cohort study Project SEXUS 2017-2018, to yield nationally representative estimates of the prevalence of sexual inactivity and dysfunction and to identify their sociodemographic correlates. Overall, we found that 23.0% of sexually experienced men and 28.8% of sexually experienced women had not been sexually active with another person within the last year...

BACKGROUND: The efficacy of interventions that provide long-term relief of genitourinary symptoms of menopause (GSM) has yet to be determined. OBJECTIVES: To evaluate the efficacy of radiofrequency (RF) and hybrid fractional laser (HFL) treatments for management of menopausal vulvovaginal symptoms. METHODS: 31 post-menopausal women completed all treatments and at least one follow-up. Outcomes included the Vulvovaginal Symptom Questionnaire (VSQ), Vaginal Laxity Questionnaire (VLQ), laxity measurements via a vaginal biometric analyzer probe, the Urogenital Distress Short Form (UDI-6), Incontinence Impact Questionnaire (IIQ-7), Female Sexual Function Index (FSFI), and gene expression studies...

BACKGROUND: A younger age at sexual intercourse has frequently been linked to adverse sexual health outcomes. Yet, little is known about its associations with healthy sexual function, and less still about the timing of pre-coital sexual debuts and adult sexual health. AIM: We examined associations between an earlier sexual debut and subsequent sexual health, using broad operationalizations of each that capture pre-coital experiences and positive outcomes. Connections to sexual health risk and healthy sexual function were assessed through the lens of the dual-control model of sexual response...

INTRODUCTION AND HYPOTHESIS: Studies have shown that athletes have three times increased risk of urinary incontinence compared to non-athletes, in addition to anal incontinence and sexual dysfunction (SD). This study aimed to assess the sexual and pelvic floor muscle (PFM) functions and to compare these variables among female athlete runners with and without SD and to identify predictive factors that may be associated with sexual function among the athletes. METHODS: Cross-sectional study including 90 female runners, who ran ≥ 20 km/week for at least 6 months, had had sexual intercourse in the last 4 weeks and were > 18 years old...
