So I heard something interesting today from the Dr I work for, and I wondered if there was any truth to it.

She told me that after periods of hard/rough sex, or just a lot of it, that some of your internal organs can be moved around slightly. I feel like I should believe her just b/c she's a Dr, but it's just something I've never heard of happening before.

For example, she said women can sometimes experience things like minute amounts of urine coming out randomly b/c the bladder has been slightly "relocated."

Can anyone confirm this? The main subject, not the example, that is.

That just made me LOL

I cannot completely confirm nor deny this, but I know sometimes it FEELS like things have been re-arranged! And I definitely see how it could be possible for things to get jostled slightly out of place, since there's a big THING all up in there. But I can say I've never heard of anything like that before, ever.

I would definately say it depends also on the size of the object/male unit that is inserted in said vagina.

I've heard of that. I've also been told that the 'stirring' you feel when you get really 'excited' is the uterus moving in preparation for having that excitement realized.

Way back in the early days of fluoroscopy most doctor's had fluoroscopes that were used while the patient was standing... unfortunately the reference films for what a normal X-Ray should look like were generally produced using patients that were laying down.

Thus a lot of uncomfortable trussing and occassionally unnecessary surgery because people had organs in the "wrong" position.

Your internal organs are more affected by breathing or changing position than they are by a relatively insignificant penis. It might be able to poke some tissues in the immediate neighborhood, but it's not going to have much affect on anything else.

When a woman has endometriosis as bad as I had it, that 'insignificant penis' affects quite a lot. Sex HURT and for years I didn't know why and assumed that was just part of the deal. Not until they opened me up did they realize I had endometriosis so bad that my colon and uterus were, as the doctor described it 'one organ'-two hours of lasering and snipping got rid of most of it(it was so bad that even after being pregnant 40 weeks, the ob/gyn could still see it during my C-section.)
In preparation for sex, the uterus moves up and back, causing that 'stirring' feeling women get. Imagine it not being able to budge.....

All your internal organs are connected to the inside cavity of your body in a relatively stable way, leaving room for movement. They move all the time, in fact- they don't move all over the place, but they can shift and adjust. For example, the stomach alone can sometimes occupy 4 times the amount of space when full than it normally does when empty. Things shift and accommodate for the extension as it fills.

As for "relocation", she must have been boiling down a much larger physiological cause into layman terms, because internal organs don't "relocate". It may stretch the sphincter that is normally closed off to contain the urine within the bladder, making it possible for it to "leak" a little at times, and that is likely what she meant. She may also have meant it as a short-term effect, either from that cause or from the physical contraction of muscles during sex, the muscles' contractions causing things to shift from their normal positions. The contraction/relaxation of all muscles in the abdomen shift the contents slightly, and a lot of rough sex may leave those muscles tensed, pushing things around that aren't normally "pushed", because those muscles are normally more relaxed.

In the end, all organs are attached to the inside body cavities, not "free-floating" by any means- they do not "relocate" in literal terms.

I've always been curious about how close together everything must be inside my body. If I have hard sex with a relatively well-endowed man, won't the tip of him be up around my lungs? And if we're having anal sex, I know the intestines are kind of twisty, but how far up would he be able to get?

Thinking about how far inside me he could get is getting me kind of hot, lol.

Jozrael

Um, read previous.

And your vagina's nowhere near your lungs. And with anal...well, actually, if he's seriously well-endowed, I'd imagine that'd be bad (hitting the end of the rectum and all). I don't think you really actually enter the large intestine, do you?

This give hope to making a girl choke from sex... not oral.

If you think a penis causes your organs to move around imagine what happens when there is a baby growing inside your uterus!!!

mixedmedia

That's just what I was going to say, lol.

And I think it's pretty reasonable to expect some minor jostling and shifting of the internal organs during rough sex, just as they might on a rollercoaster, for instance. I just never thought about it before and don't recall ever feeling anything much out of the ordinary. Well, at least not in my abdominal cavity, lol.

This topic looked so hot I couldn't resist.
Anyway, as with anything, as scientist has the answer. Sex in an MRI Pretty much exactly what it sounds like.

From the article, this shows just how much things move around for the female.
At rest, Pre-orgasmic and Post-orgasmic.

Right- the important distinction to remember is that they "move", or "shift"- not "relocate". Your arm can move quite a bit- but it cannot relocate itself, because it is attached. Same for internal organs- they're given a lot of room for shifting around (I hate using the word "move", even, because some people assume that means it changes location) but they are anchored. They will eventually shift back into their normal positions, barring outright trauma to the tissue and viscera that connects them all to their proper places- but then you're talking about real damage, and that's not at all the same thing as what we're discussing here.

If a woman were to have rigorous enough sex with a substantially well-endowed man (or object) to cause stretching of those tissues, it could over time eventually cause the area to "give" more than it naturally would- like when you take yoga, and you can bend in all kinds of ways that you couldn't before you stretched those muscles and tendons and such into a way that made more movement possible.

But... I'd imagine a woman would need to (excuse the common language) get a hell of a pounding from a guy/toy big enough to really move around those affected areas on a fairly/very regular basis before something permanent like a leaky bladder sphincter would happen.

As medicine will teach anyone, however, there are very few "absolutes". lol

Good article, though. Thanks!

I've seen those before. It was on TLC or the Discovery channel or something. It is interesting that stuff repositions itself like that.
