A point

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The A point is located in the abdominal area of ​​the notch in the cervix (anterior fornix). Shown is a natural anteflexed uterus , i. H. the fundus uteri points forward ( ventral ) to the urinary bladder
Speculum findings of an external cervix of a multipara . On the upper sheet of the speculum ("at 12 o'clock") is the anterior cervical vault ( Fornix cervicalis anterior , English "anterior fornix zone", abbreviated to "AFE zone")
In the doggy position , the buttocks are tilted sharply upwards and the lumbar spine is hyperlordated , making the penetrating penis easier to reach the AFE zone.

A point stands for the English name Anterior Fornix Erogenous Zone , AFE zone for short , and represents an area in the vagina of women that is sensitive to stimulation in some women. It belongs to the erogenous zones . According to the gynecologist Chua Chee Ann from Malaysia , the A-spot is more sensitive to stimuli than the also controversial G-spot .

anatomy

According to the gynecologist Josef von Halban , the so-called Halban's fascia or septum vesicovaginale is located between the vagina and the urinary bladder ; Provision of Krause bodies and pseudo-corpuscular nerve endings. When this connective tissue space is stimulated, vasoconstriction and pleasant erotic sensations occur.

According to Chua Chee Ann, the A-point is located in the anterior wall of the vagina, roughly between the G-spot and the cervix . Accessibility depends on the position or the abnormal position of the uterus. The A point was described by him at the Asian Congress of Sexology in 2003. Ann emphasized the importance for women with severe pain during intercourse due to lack of moisture. When the zone is stimulated, the lubrication by the Bartholin's glands increases . In addition, according to the gynecologist, a third of women react to the stimulation of the A-point with multiple orgasms.

If the A-point in the rear, upper vaginal vault is touched, you can activate the erogenous zone with gentle but even manual pressure from the inside out, towards the abdominal wall. The shoveling finger movement, in the sense of a "come here movement", should be fed back in the sense of an attention guided by " feedback " .

In order to stimulate the A-point through penile penetration during vaginal intercourse , on the one hand a corresponding level of sexual arousal is necessary in the woman and, on the other hand, the penetration depth or angle of the penis is important. This can be improved through appropriate sex positions, but also through improved technology. Sexual intercourse is usually caused by a rhythmic back and forth movements of the penis or the female genitalia up to orgasm. For optimal A-point stimulation, it is advisable to reinforce this intravaginally with a small, strong, deep thrust after every deep forward movement. This will penetrate the penis about another 1–2 cm deeper. A direct impact on the cervix can u. U. be perceived as unpleasant. The position of the uterus , whether anteflexed or retroflexed, can be significant and may then require correction through appropriate sex positions or the perfect angle for the penis and vagina.

So it can be B. for the sexual partner in the a tergo position it can be helpful to raise the buttocks more and kneel into a stronger hyperlordosis in the lumbar spine. This is especially true for women who have a so-called retroflected uterine position. This shifts the angle more favorably for the penetrating penis so that the Anterior Fornix Erogenous Zone (AFE zone) can be better reached.

Chua Chee Ann claims to have found the A-spot by chance during an examination, and then tested the reaction to corresponding stimulation in other women. Several came to orgasm spontaneously .
