G-Spot Found?

The declared G-spot is a tiny bunch-of-grapes-like analysis aural a bluish sac active abysmal aural the advanced bank of the vagina, says Adam Ostrzenski, MD, PhD, of St. Petersburg, Fla.

"As an arrect body, this analysis is causing acclivity of the [front of the] vaginal bank at the alpha of the animal excitement," Ostrzenski tells WebMD.
G-Spot? Maybe Not

But Ostrzenski's award is based on a distinct dissection, performed on a afresh asleep 83-year-old woman.

"The activity in my bound acreage is that this is not real," Elena Ratner, MD, abettor abettor of obstetrics, gynecology, and changeable anesthetic at Yale University, tells WebMD via email.

Ratner addendum that allegation from a distinct dissection, performed on an aged woman, are not affidavit that the analysis is accepted to all women -- or that it is a antecedent of animal sensation.

"Who is to say that this affair they begin on her anatomization was the centermost of pelvic pleasure?" Ratner asks.

Even added dismissive of Ostrzenski's affirmation is sex therapist Leonore Tiefer, PhD, analytic accessory abettor of psychiatry at New York University Medical Center.

"We can achieve actually annihilation from this cardboard back we apperceive annihilation about the animal activity of the asleep woman," Tiefer tells WebMD via email.

While admonishing that annihilation is accurate by a distinct case, Christopher Estes, MD, abettor abettor of obstetrics and gynecology at the University of Miami, does not abolish Ostrzenski's report.

"This absolutely is evocative of an anatomical analysis that would associate with a G-spot," Estes tells WebMD. "Women who acquaintance orgasms from a G-spot will alarm a hardening on the central of the vagina, a little almond- or peanut-shaped protuberance. This is constant with that."

The G-spot, in 1981 alleged the Grafenberg breadth afterwards Ernst Grafenberg, was christened the "G-spot" in media reports. The area, abnormally declared as about in the advanced of the vagina, is a antecedent of animal dispatch to about 50% of women.

But whether there is an anatomical analysis agnate to this sensation, or whether dispatch artlessly affects added acute areas of a woman's anatomy, charcoal a amount of controversy.

There is no accurate affirmation that any gynecologic action can enhance a woman's G-spot sensitivity. But abounding gynecologic surgeons action such procedures. Ostrzenski himself performed such operations, according to his resume. And the surgeon who photographed his dissection, Mark Scheinberg, MD, offers women collagen injections -- the arguable "G-shot" -- at his dispensary in Deerfield Beach, Fla.

And Ostrzenski says he's alive on a new action to advance G-spot acuteness in women whose vaginal analysis is "distorted." He affairs to alarm it "G-Spot Plasty."

X Marks the G-Spot

If Ostrzenski has absolutely amid the anatomical G-spot, why hasn't anybody abroad begin it?

Ostrzenski says that during his continued career as a gynecologic surgeon, he's begin that textbooks generally are inaccurate about the capacity of changeable animal anatomy.

After advertent that the G-spot charge lie abysmal below the anatomy of the vaginal wall, Ostrzenski articular that the structure, if it existed, could alone be begin in a beginning body not yet anchored with tissue-altering formaldehyde.

In his seven-hour dissection, the Poland-trained surgeon anxiously cut abroad band afterwards band of the vaginal wall. He cut through bristles layers of tissue and beef to acknowledge a bluish sac sitting aloft a analysis alleged the perineal membrane.

After aperture the sac, Ostrzenski begin a bluish tissue akin a tiny agglomeration of grapes with a white rope-like tail. It was beneath than a third of an inch long, from 0.14 to 0.05 inches wide, and 0.016 inches tall.

"This is absolutely not anywhere abreast a accepted dissection," Estes says. "The analysis itself is very, absolute small. I could see that unless you were very, absolute careful, you could calmly go appropriate through the tissues and not acquisition it."

How can article that baby comedy a role in sexuality? Ostrzenski says the tissue looks like arrect tissue. Under pressure, he speculates, the tissue would lift the vaginal wall, either triggering sensations about the clitoris or possibly sending out its own set of animal sensations.

But Estes addendum that "the absolute role this analysis plays in animal action is adamantine to say."

Ostrzenski's address appears in the May affair of the Journal of Animal Medicine.
