A member asked:

I slept with a fan on all night but just had knickers on could the fan have cause a air embolism in my vagina? the fan was at the end of the bed

A doctor has provided 1 answer

No: A room fan, anywhere in the room, is fine and will not cause a vaginal air embolism. Keeping cool with a fan is a good thing, as it decreases sweatiness and body odors. Air embolism is a risk if a person's mouth and lips seals off another person's vulvo-vaginal opening, and then he blows... that would be a bad thing to do.
