This one question is perhaps one of the most controversial questions surrounding human sexual function: does the G-spot really exist? And if it does, how do you find it?

The G-spot is an area in the vagina that is said to have super sensitivity, which when stimulated can lead to strong sexual arousal and orgasm. Although the concept of vaginal orgasms has been around since the 17th century, the term G-spot wasn't coined until the 1980's. The G-spot was "discovered" by Ernst Gräfenberg, a German gynecologist, whose 1940 study documented this sensitive area in the vagina of some women.

Where is the G-spot?

Gräfenberg described an erogenous zone at 5-8 cm above the vaginal opening, or on the front wall of the vagina, which correlates with the position of the urethra at the other end of the wall. It reveals a complex of blood vessels, nerve endings, and remains of the female prostate gland in the same area; suggests that in a minority of women - especially those with strong pelvic floor muscles - stimulation of this zone can trigger strong orgasms and the release of small amounts of fluid from the urethra instead of urine (such as male ejaculation).

The secret is now starting to spread about the magic button on the front wall of the vagina. Many couples take the time and energy to hunt for this passion button - often in vain. Some feminists, however, claim that the G-spot publicity was an attempt by men to bring back the spotlight on the importance of vaginal penetration, after public attention turned to the clitoris during the 60-70's sexual revolution.

The controversy surrounding the G-spot arises because there is no consensus on what the physical appearance of this arousal zone looks like, and while some women can experience orgasm through G-spot stimulation, others find it uncomfortable.

Those who are pros of the G-spot

Addiego's early research into the G-spot, reported by the Huffington Post, was based on a woman who reported the area was swollen after being touched, leading to increased sensitivity, satisfaction, and the urge to urinate - all of these characteristics led Addiego to the conclusion that the orgasm that the woman experiences from this stimulation is similar to the male orgasm.

However, a new review shows that the woman also reported that, at the time of the laboratory test, she had been diagnosed with type 1 bladder hernia (cystocele), a condition in which the supporting tissue of the bladder and vaginal walls weakens and stretches, allowing the bladder urine to protrude into the vagina. This side effect of the cystocele makes the woman a weak candidate for a sexual theory based on makeshift medical evidence.

According to the journal published in the Journal Of Sexual Medicine by gynecologist from the Institute of Gynecology of Florida, Adam Ostrzenski, he managed to find the anatomical presence of the G-spot - a nerve lump half the size of a nail. However, a number of researchers refute this evidence. The reason is that Ostrzenski's research is based solely on the autopsy of the remains of a Polish woman who died as a result of head trauma, making it almost difficult to declare a clinical study.

In 1981, a sexologist named Beverley Whipple helped co-author a book entitled The G-spot And Other Discoveries About Human Sexuality. He studied 400 adult women and claimed that all of his research participants had the G-spot.

One 2008 study used ultrasound imaging to explore the vaginal walls of women, and found a thickening of the tissue in the suspected G-spot in women who had vaginal orgasms. Women who reported never having had a vaginal orgasm were found to have thin tissue in the area.

Other researchers have been looking for physical evidence. Biopsy of vaginal wall tissue in the area with the G-spot is often found to have more nerve endings than other areas of the vaginal wall. However, other imaging studies have been unable to find conclusive evidence of the G-spot. Researchers have shown that sensitivity in the human body is not determined by the number of nerve endings alone.

Those who are against the G-spot

Evidence to support or deny the existence of the G-spot is still vague, and is often a mere sensation. One study that disproved the existence of this magic button was based on an MRI scan of a woman. The debate over the presence or absence of the G-spot has been further grayed out by disputes about the terminology of different areas of the vagina, as well as where a particular structure begins and ends.

Apart from previous studies, the researchers say that the vagina has no anatomical relationship with the clitoris. A 2012 study published in the Journal of Sexual Medicine reviewed research around the G-spot older than 60 years and found that radiographic studies proved unable to pinpoint unique entities, apart from the clitoris, whose direct stimulation led to vaginal orgasm. Likewise, a study published in Clinical Anatomy in 2015 stated that the anterior wall of the vagina - the alleged location of the G-spot - has no anatomical connection to the clitoris, and that the G-spot or vaginal orgasm is fake news, aka hoaxes.

One better way to understand the G-spot might be to view it not as a "button" but rather an area in the big picture of the structure of the female anatomy. Reporting from MIC, a 2014 study published in Nature Reviews Urology explains that, although the G-spot cannot be identified by exact science, the vagina is a very complex structure that can reach orgasm in many ways.

However, we cannot rule out the real experiences of a number of women

The anatomical relationship and dynamic interactions between the clitoris, urethrra, and anterior vaginal wall have led to the complicated concept of the clitourethrovaginal, defining areas of multifaceted and variable morphofunctionality that, when well stimulated on penetration, can induce an orgasmic response.

Scientists may not be able to find the exact location of the G-spot, but this doesn't change the fact that many women of varying percentages - ranging from 7-30 percent - have had successful orgasms from penis-and-vaginal sex alone. some women may be more sensitive and easily aroused by anterior wall stimulation, while others are not.

The physiological response to a G-spot orgasm is different from the response shown in a clitoral orgasm. During clitoral orgasm, the end of the vagina (near the opening) bulges out; however, during orgasm resulting from g-spot stimulation, the cervix is ​​pushed into the vagina.

Up to 50 percent of women secrete various kinds of fluids during arousal or sex, generally during orgasm, and especially in orgasms that result from G-spot stimulation. So, what's the difference between the two?

Urinary discharge during penetrative sex is usually the result of stress urinary incontinence. Some women experience no other symptoms of this condition, such as wetting the bed when sneezing, coughing, or laughing, but will only “wet” during sex. "Squirting" is "leakage" of fluid with a urine-like texture during orgasm. Squirting is thought to result from a strong contraction of the muscles around the bladder during orgasm.

Female ejaculation, most commonly reported through G-spot orgasms, is a different thing from the two conditions above. Women who experience it report a discharge like energetic white milk, with a volume of as much as one teaspoon when released. The content of this female ejaculate has been chemically analyzed and it was found that this fluid is similar to that of male semen. Allegedly, female ejaculatory fluid is produced by the female prostate (Skene's gland).

So, does the G-spot really exist?

In short, any claim that the G-spot is real and physically concrete can make women who have never had vaginal orgasms doubt themselves; meanwhile, the claim that the G-spot is a myth makes women who experience stimulation from that area doubt themselves as well.

Kait Scalisi, a sex educator, as reported by MIC, said that it's okay to explore, but don't get hung up on things that are uncertain. If you are satisfied with the orgasm you've been having, go on with what makes you happy. If you want to try to explore deeper and find your G-spot, then do it.

If it doesn't work? It is okay. The G-spot is not a universal activation switch which, if discovered eventually, will guarantee to lead women to intense orgasms. What works for some women, may not work well for all. In contrast, female orgasm occurs when the lower groups: clitoris, vestibular bulb, pars intermedia, labia minora, and corpus songiosum of the urethra are synchronously stimulated.
