A member asked:
Rinsing your vagina with the shower head pointing up on a light setting, can you get an air embolism from that?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Air embolism: What you describe will not produce an "air embolism", and is not much different from the common European custom of using a "bidet", present in most female toilet facilities.
