Let’s not be naive, the love scenes where everything seems perfect take place especially in the movies. In real life, far from the cameras, sex isn’t always so glamorous. It can even be accompanied by awkward moments.

1. Want to urinate

When a woman makes love, her body changes. If pupil dilation is known to reflect sexual attraction, another bodily sign reflects excitement: swelling of the vagina.

It is this phenomenon that will cause this feeling of urinating. Indeed, when it swells, the vagina presses on the urethra, which is simply the outlet of the bladder for evacuating urine during urination. Don’t worry though, if your bladder isn’t full, it’s just a false urge to urinate.

2. Only five vaginas

Certain movements performed when a woman plays sports but also during sex can causeexpulsion of air from the vagina. It is then that an unsightly little noise called vaginal farting is heard.

It is simply due to muscle relaxation vaginal muscles and has nothing to do with gas. Completely odorless, the vaginal fart does not reveal any pathological disorder.

3. The sexual breakdown

Often occasional, sexual breakdown is an erectile dysfunction that can affect all men during their lifetime. Several surveys have shown thatabout 40% of men had already been affected by this inability to get an erection or maintain it during coitus.

If the cause is often linked to stress, fatigue or depression, it can also find its origin in a poor lifestyle: tobacco, alcohol, drugs … Anyway, the sexual breakdown should not become a subject of contention with his partner and it is important to discuss it in pairs.

4. Premature ejaculation

During sex, it may happen that the man ejaculates before vaginal penetration. Unlike erectile dysfunction, premature ejaculation does not increase with age. It would even tend to decrease with time and experience. So she is more common in young men when they are at the start of a romantic relationship. 

There are several risk factors: anxiety (especially performance anxiety), having a new partner, poor sexual activity, alcohol withdrawal or abuse, but also certain medications or drugs (especially opiates, amphetamines, dopaminergic drugs, etc.).

5. Urinary leaks

Urinary leakage during intercourse is an extremely annoying disorder and can happen to women but also to men. Regarding women, the main explanation is linked to a relaxation of the pelvic muscles. A solution : re-educate your perineum with a midwife or physiotherapist.

Concerning men, it could be a prostate problem, a gland located under the bladder, including a benign enlargement called prostate adenoma. Do not hesitate to talk to your doctor, it can also be cancer
