Women's Sex Facts

This page explain the most important sex facts of women's lives, like improving orgasm, the female G spot, how to keep sex interesting and the best forms of contraception.

Improving orgasm

25% of all women find it difficult to achieve orgasm. Strengthen your pelvic floor muscles can help you.
Clench your pelvic muscles (as if you want to stop yourself passing urine) ten times in quick succession (repeat up to ten times a day). Also you can focus on foreplay and experiment with sexual positions that stimulate the clitoris and G spot. Some women never achieve orgasm but still have satisfying sex lives.

The female G spot.

The G spot is a small spongy pad of tissue a couple of inches up on the anterior wall of the vagina.

Stimulation of the G spot produces very intense feelings which are pleasurable for most women but can be too intense for others. It can also help you achieve the illusive multiple orgasm. Experiment with sexual positions and find the ones that hit your G spot. The missionary position will rarely hit the mark. You're more likely to achieve success if the man enters the woman's vagina from behind.

Keep sex interesting.

When you've been with a partner for a while it's easy for sex to become routine but remember, variety is the spice of life. Try to retain some spontaneity. Use your imagination and occasionally surprise your partner with something new. For example, share a few fantasies with them and try a few out. You can also try some toys.

The best form of contraception.

Other than abstinence, there is no such thing as perfect contraception. All methods have failure rates.

If you want to avoid pregnancy, a hormonal method might be best. The pill is 99 percent effective at preventing pregnancy but you must take it daily. If you're forgetful, the hormonal injection only needs to be given every 12 weeks. The coil is also a good choice. Modern coils are small, easy to insert and you can offer protection from pregnancy for up to 5 years. To prevent infection and pregnancy, condoms are the best, if used properly.
