Urethral stimulation
The urethra stimulation denotes a sexual practice , in which the male or female urethra opening (lat. External urethral orifice ) and the urethra (lat. Urethra ) stimulated is. This can be done either manually or by inserting objects.
designation
The English term urethral stimulation or urethral play is often used. Colloquially and in relation to men, urethral stimulation is also called cockstuffing (English penis filling ; cock = English slang expression for penis ).
Urethral sensitivity
The urethra is a densely innervated, sensitive part of the human body. The male urethra is surrounded by the corpus spongiosum , erectile cavernous tissue; similar tissue also surrounds the female urethra. This is also surrounded by deeper structures of the clitoris . In this sense it is an erogenous zone , and the stimulation can be perceived as very pleasurable and can also lead to orgasm. Because of its erogenous potential, the mouth of the urethra is also known as the U (rethral) point , analogous to the G point .
Methods of stimulation
Urethral stimulation is used either in partnership foreplay or for masturbation .
In women, the urethra can be stimulated by stretching or vibrating . The vibration is transmitted to the surrounding tissue of the clitoris and thus additionally stimulates it.
In men, the urethra can also be stimulated by stretching or vibration . The stretch has a direct effect on the surrounding erectile tissue of the urethra . The vibration inside the urethra can also spread through the erectile tissue and thus penetrate into the glans or the prostate .
Manual stimulation
Usually the front part of the urethra is stimulated manually. For this purpose, depending on the size of the urethral opening, the fingertip can be inserted and stimulated with massaging movements.
External resources
In addition, various objects are often used. In addition to commercially available sex toys such as urethral vibrators or plugs and probes for electrostimulation that are specially created for this purpose, dilators and various elongated, smooth everyday objects such as plastic-coated wires or candles are also used. Ernst Graefenberg describes in an article several cases of women who insert hairpins or pencils into their urethra for the purpose of masturbation. Medical probes that are specifically designed to be inserted into body orifices are a safer alternative. Various piercings in the genital area can stimulate the urethra during intercourse . A Prince's Wand can be used for men .
Urethral traffic
When urethral intercourse it comes to the insertion of the penis into the female urethra. This must be gradually stretched over the long term in order to achieve a corresponding diameter. This sexual practice is very rare.
Risks
If improperly performed, urethral stimulation can lead to risks or problems in a number of ways:
- Inserting pointed or sharp-edged objects or objects that are too large can injure the urethra. Stimulation should be stopped immediately if pain occurs.
- If loose objects are inserted too deeply, they cannot be removed again without authorization. In such cases, the item must be removed by a healthcare professional.
- The introduction of germs can lead to urethritis .
In women, the risk of ascending infections and injuries to the bladder is much higher due to the comparatively short urethra and its straight course. In men, an introduction through the bend of the penis ( "Cobb's Curve" ) into the body is usually considered risky, as the mucous membrane there becomes softer and more sensitive, irritation is more common and infections caused by introduced bacteria can rise more easily.
Using non- sterile items and not using a (sterile) lubricant gel can increase the risk of injury or infection. If used improperly, medical catheters can both roll up in the urinary bladder and puncture the urinary bladder. This can lead to life-threatening situations.
distribution
The frequency of this sexual practice is unclear, but recommendations for removing foreign objects of this type from both the urethra and the bladder are given in some clinical urology manuals and gynecological books. This at least suggests that accidents with introduced objects can occur and these can also slip into the bladder. The number of infections caused by this manipulation in women is unclear, since in practice several causes can be used to explain a bladder infection. In general, transurethral manipulations are one of the most common causes of urethral infections (see nosocomial infections ), but outside the clinical setting, no distinction is made between medically necessary (catheters, operations, examinations) and sexually stimulating causes.
