Wat is Female Ejaculation?

Women's bodies can be a mystery—even to science. Researchers are still debating the existence of the G-spot. And a similar argument has long raged over the phenomenon of female ejaculation.

Fortunately, a half dozen recent studies have helped clear away the fog surrounding “squirting.” Here's what you should know.

What Is It?

What many women think of as “ejaculating" is actually just "coital

incontinence," scientists say. Translation: Some women pee during orgasm.


One French research team used ultrasound technology and chemical

analysis to monitor both the bladders and secretions of women who

claimed to “squirt” during orgasm. The chemical analysis showed the

gushing liquid was mostly urine, and the ultrasounds revealed the women’s

bladders were less full after orgasm.



But that’s not the whole story, says Florian Wimpissinger, M.D., a urologist

at Rudolfstiftung Hospital in Austria who has studied the “female prostate”

and ejaculation.


Dr. Wimpissinger says some women do lose control of their bowels during

sex—and this is probably the case when a woman “squirts” fluid during

orgasm. Others may simply release a ton of lubricating fluid in the middle

of intercourse. This, coupled with especially strong contractions of the

muscles in the walls of the vagina, could lead to a larger-than-average

amount of discharge, additional research has shown.


But neither of those things is a true female ejaculation, Dr. Wimpissinger

says. His research has shown a small number of women—fewer than 10

percent, according to his own clinical experience—expel another type of

fluid. He says this ejaculate is similar in chemical composition to prostate

plasma, which is the stuff a guy releases, along with sperm, during

orgasm.
Where Does It Come From?

There are small glands, located near the opening of a woman’s urethra, t
hat seem to be the source of the ejaculate, Dr. Wimpissinger explains.

Although these used to be called “Skene’s glands,” he says their

placement and function have led most researchers to refer to them simply

as the female prostate.

Another new study from the Czech Republic also backs up Dr.

Wimpissinger's assertion that the fluid expelled during a true female

ejaculation isn’t the type of gush depicted in pornography. On the high

end, the Czech researchers put the amount of fluid released at 1.5

ounces—not exactly a deluge.

More research from Italy concludes: “Real female ejaculation is the release

of a very scanty, thick, and whitish fluid from the female prostate.”

Squirting, on the other hand, is “the expulsion of a diluted fluid from the

urinary bladder,” the Italian study authors say.


In his opinion, Dr. Wimpissinger says the epic monsoons of porn fame are

“fake”—probably fluid pumped into the actress’s vagina to simulate the

loss of bowel control people mistakenly refer to as ejaculation.

Can All Women Ejaculate?

This is where things remain hazy, Dr. Wimpissinger says. While pleasurable

stimulation and a woman’s ability to “let go” during sex could play a role,

he says it’s not at all clear whether those factors are enough to trigger

true female ejaculation.

“We know of some tribes in Africa where all women are able to ejaculate,”

he says. He also adds that some tantric sex gurus claim to be able to train

women to ejaculate—a boast he can’t support or deny. Other sex

researchers say certain positions or G-spot stimulation may increase the

chances of making a woman expel fluid. But there’s no research that

suggests women need to ejaculate to experience great pleasure during

sex.

“In my opinion, female ejaculation depends greatly on anatomical

variation,” Dr. Wimpissinger says. Basically, just as some women enjoy

certain sex positions and maneuvers more than others, and some may just

be built for ejaculation.

“There are still a lot of open questions,” he adds.
