Question 1

what is that tiny hole above a woman's uretha and what is it for?

Accepted Answer

Misidentified?: The next hole "above' the urethra is the naval (belly button). This leaves us with 2 possibilities: 1) misidentified vagina, in which case the tiny hole is the urethra and the thing you think is a urethra is a vagina.  Or... 2) there's a prominent clitoral hood and a small clitoris giving the impression of a "hole." does this diagram help?   http://alturl.com/yqg7o.

Question 2

i have uretha pain from sex.. i am not on medicine- how long will this pain last- i am a female- how many days does it take to heal?

Accepted Answer

Urethral pain: If from trauma, it should get better in 2 weeks time. Try lubricating gel if very dry during intercourse. If persisting see a doc.

Question 3

is my uretha being pinched during orgasm?

Accepted Answer

Sphincter contracts: Pelvic floor muscles, including urinary/urethral sphincter, which surronds urethra, may all contract during orgasm. This is perfectly normal.

Question 4

agonizing urethra! help? what should i do?

Urethral pain: This will likely require diagnostic evaluation to determine cause. Have you seen your physician, gynecologist or urologist?

Question 5

what is the definition or description of: urethra?

Accepted Answer

Passage for urine.: The canal through which urine exits the bladder, discharging the urine externally. In men, it is about 20-cm long with a membranous, prostatic, bulbar, and pendulous segments ending at the glans penis; it gives passage to the spermatic fluid as well as urine. In the female, the urethra is about 4 cm long & in close relation with the anterior wall of the vagina.

Question 6

is it possible to rip your urethra hole on female?

Accepted Answer

Yes: Urethral trauma can occur resulting in tearing, lacerations, and dilation.

Question 7

i blew into my boyfriends urethra will anything happen?

Accepted Answer

No, with low pressur: Blowing into the urethra at low pressure will cause no trouble .  At high pressure one could cause air to enter the blood stream and create an air embolism which could cause shock and even death .  We use KY Jelly in the urethra but again at very low pressure . There are reported cases of  KY jelly embolism to the lungs.  So my best advice is no blowing into the urethra.  Blow Job is a misnomer.

Question 8

my uretha hurts really bad. and the tip is kinda white?

Accepted Answer

Urethritis: Most episodes of urethritis are caused by infection by bacteria that enter the urethra from the skin around the urethra's opening. Urethritis can  cause itching, pain, or discomfort as well as frequent urinating.Mechanical causes of pain include  vigorous sex, activities like cycling, and urinary tract irritants.

Question 9

i have a hole on either side of my urethra. what is this?

Accepted Answer

: It is not feasible to provide a meaningful opinion without additional history, physical examination and may be some tests. What you think are holes may be small dimples. Have you seen any urine come of these "holes"? If there is no discharge you may just watch and wait.
Wish you good health!

Question 10
