Patient's question:
I previously had the habit of masturbation, and I have now abstained for 5 days. I heard that it can lead to infertility, so now that I have abstained, will I be free from this problem? It seems that I experienced frequent urination due to masturbation, but it has almost improved recently. However, now I sometimes experience vaginal flatulence when I invert my body. Is this a serious problem?Doctor's answer:
Hello, the main reason why the vagina produces flatulence is due to the relaxation of the vaginal walls and pelvic floor muscles. The anterior and posterior walls of the vagina cannot adhere closely together, allowing air to enter the vagina and then be expelled, resulting in a sound, which is clinically referred to as vaginal flatulence. It is recommended to undergo pelvic floor muscle rehabilitation therapy or to regularly perform kegel exercises, as these can strengthen the pelvic floor muscles and restore their original tension. This will help the anterior and posterior walls of the vagina to adhere closely together, improving the symptoms of vaginal flatulence.
