What is the g-spot and where is it? Do scientists agree that it exists? All this information and more will be explored in this article.
A German gynecologist, Ernst Grafenberg, was famous for his studies of the female genitalia, and created one of the first IUDs, a birth control device. In 1944, Gräfenberg first identified a place within the front vagina wall that is highly sensitive and can be stimulated to give the woman an intense orgasm. This place, the Gräfenberg spot, was also described in the International Journal of Sexology in 1950, in an article about the female orgasm and the role of the urethra called The Role of Urethra in Female Orgasm.
The “ g-spot ” term was adopted in 1981. This term is short for “Grafenberg spot,” thanks to John D. Perry and Beverly Whipple, both sexologists, who named that place on the body in his honor. As for the medical professionals, while they still debate its existence, Dr. Kinsey, Dr. Sanger, and Drs. Masters and Johnson credit him with having made extensive forward progress in understanding the woman's physiology.
Where Is It? The Two Methods Of Location
When Gräfenberg first hypothesized the existence of such a sensitive spot within a woman's vagina, he did not research it extensively. Though scientists have yet to agree, books about sex talk about the g-spot as if it is a real spot within the woman's vagina. Most claim that it is within the front vaginal wall. It can be found by palpating within the vagina, looking for an area of greater sensitivity. This method of finding the g-spot is hard to substantiate, as studies are hard to control and evaluate. Also, scientific tests used to measure the neuron density (assuming that is where the greater sensitivity would be found) have been inconclusive.
Other researchers look for the g-spot by going from the belief that stimulation of this place will lead to a female ejaculation. Scientists believe that a non-urine ejaculation would have to come from the female's Skene's gland, which some people refer to as the female prostate. These researchers consider the g-spot to actually be a system of glands and ducts, and that they surround the urethra, within the front wall of the vagina, about 1/3 to 1/2 the way inside the vagina, and about a centimeter in from the surface of the vagina. Research into this aspect, however, is inconclusive, and medical professionals continue to debate and study.
