What is Vaginal Gas? Why Does It Happen?
You're in the middle of a peaceful yoga class or having a high-pulse lovemaking and you hear a noise coming from your vagina. A kind of "zort", a vaginal flatulence similar to what we hear after ketchup has escaped from the bottle.
These sounds can be embarrassing for the person making them; but your vagina isn't actually trying to embarrass you. There is a simple explanation for this situation.
What causes gas from the vagina?
We liken the sound of the vagina to a fart; but the gas coming from the vagina does not have an odor and is not like the gas formed in the intestines due to the food you eat. This "vaginal fart" is when air enters an area that has no exit (there's a joke but we couldn't find it) as the penis, fingers or sex toys enter and exit the vagina, and the trapped air creates a gasping sound like a balloon. It is the release of trapped air in the vagina. Although there is no special name for the situation in Turkish, the word ' queef' in English defines this action.
According to experts, some individuals with vagina are more prone to having vaginal gas than others. The reason for this change lies in the fact that the shape and length of the vaginal canal varies from person to person.
Can I prevent this sound from coming out during sex?
Our answer is not encouraging because there is not much you can do. If we talk about sex, you can reduce the risk of voice with sex positions where the vagina will be less airy, but the pleasure you will receive may decrease along with it.
Vaginal gas is not a cause for concern unless it is accompanied by a foul odor or foul-smelling discharge. Next time try not to listen to the noise in the middle of a passionate lovemaking session and enjoy the moment, enjoy yourself!
