Gynaecology is backward. Honestly. Speculums, IUDs without sedation and adequate pain relief, cervical biopsies without sedation and adequate pain relief, refusal to diagnose things such as endometriosis. Medical gaslighting. Student hospitals performing smear tests on female patients who have gone into surgery for unrelated issues to “practice”.

IMO an IUD and also cervical biopsies should be considered surgery because in the case of IUDs, you are putting an object through the vaginal canal and into the uterus is invasive and literally a procedure done inside the body.

i honestly know little to nothing about actual irl sex, or my own body. i feel like I have a whole series of questions to ask you, but I want to start with, what are things commonly put in smutty fanfiction that are genuinely NOT REAL irl?

I did record a 'Vagina Masterclass' video for a group once. Perhaps I'll post it on here. It covered a little section of how the vagina is actually shaped, where the cervix sits within it, etc.

It made me laugh as it's my bread and butter to know vaginas back to front. We shall see! But, here we go for your question...

ADVANCE WARNING OF GRAPHIC SEX DESCRIPTION, INCLUDING THE PHYSIOLOGY OF THE MALE AND FEMALE FORM, AND THEORETICAL SEX-RELATED INJURY.

You don't actually feel a cock twitch inside you, nor the feeling of them ejaculating inside you. It's just...not a thing, at least for every woman I've ever spoken to about it.

Most men cum very little, like a teaspoon worth at most. Fanfic makes men cum gallons.

Very very few women experience vaginal orgasms in the absence of clitoral stimulation. While some do, and most do feel a degree of pleasure from penetration alone, it's uncommon, and most men's penises are not long enough to stimulate the g-spot (soft spot) well enough to give much pleasure. Certain positions can alter the natural curve of the vagina to make it easier to reach that spot.

Most men struggle to make a woman cum even with clitoral stimulation.

The refractory period (the period after a man orgasms, before he is able to become erect and ejaculate again) is usually at least an hour, and most often longer. Usually, the shorter times are seen in much younger men, under 21 years of age. So, male multiple orgasms and round after round after round, where they just keep ejaculating and keep going? Not very accurate.

Most men have zero interest in 'aftercare'.

There is no such thing as a 'belly bulge' or pressing on a woman's belly to make it feel like the penis is deeper. Sex takes place entirely within the bony pelvic frame. It does not extend up to the abdomen; the top of the non pregnant uterus sits way below the brim of the pelvis.

'Cumflation' (where in fanfic, the uterus is so filled with cum, that it swells) would be physically possible (if that much ejaculate was actually left behind, but there isn't, so...) but the woman would likely die of organ damage and shock.

I bore myself.

But it's fanfiction, right?! Have fun!

This is all I could think of off the top of my head. I'm sure I've missed plenty!

Love,

Imagine going to a sorority house. Take all its inhabitants to your laboratory.

Anesthetize them personally.

And to be able to practice all the procedures in the manual on them... and one or another experimental

November 25th is the international day for the elimination of violence against women. One of the cases where certain kinds of violence (sometimes very extreme, even having been considered torture by UN standards) against women and people perceived as women is normalized is obstetric violence, so I wanted to share this short clip about how healthcare professionals can begin to address it by incorporating respect.

Clip from the documentary “Dona, vostè no té res!” by TV3 about obstetric violence.

This is a PSA for anyone with a cervix (tw: medical, smear tests, gynaecology)

If you’re old enough to have a cervical screening… please do it. Mine recently came back with some nasty looking cells. I’ve had a follow up biopsy which, whilst unpleasant, was nowhere near as bad as I thought it would be, and thankfully it looks like I’ll be okay… but just… please go if you can - the short amount of time you spend being uncomfortable is worth it to catch things early if there’s anything wrong

2024 is gonna go down as the year my dogs Fucking Died, both my parents had major surgery, my sinuses collapsed for no fucking reason and the first woman who matched with me on the dating app i was just trying to get a haphazard and unideal little hookup on only matched with me to check if i was alright bc my bio was a little too alarming

[glindaselphie]

I love that dead ringers addresses the fucked up racist history behind gynaecology tho. I’m sure a lot of people do not know about it tbqh

Looks like this patient has had some serious Gynaecological surgery

I’m the anon who asked for the gynecologist advice: Haitch you literally made me feel so much better 💗 I HATE that it’s so pushed, and there’s always this weird feeling of shame or guilt if you put it off, which is dumb because why would I put myself through an invasive, uncomfortable and anxiety inducing exam for a societal/nearly cultural standard. The US is crazy, and I feel so much better now that I’m not the only one going 🤨 about it.

Thank you so much, I’m a body positive person but I question myself sometimes and having someone else help affirm that I’m not doing something wrong by not wanting to do that for shits and giggles is really helpful. Literally all the hugs in the world to you 💗

(Also, aside from the papamin au, blacksmith!Namami is by far my favorite of your works. Just to add a little compliment 🩵)

Hey! It's honestly my pleasure. My job is genuinely about advocating for women in scenarios like this, so I'm of course happy to advise.

The only time you should be accessing an invasive vaginal examination are: routine cervical screening (think you call them pap tests over there), irregular bleeding, suspicion of an STI, suspicion of a growth of some sort (lumps etc.), very irregular discharge (though arguably this doesn't necessarily require an intrusive internal examination), insertion of an intrauterine contraceptive device, or pregnancy-related examinations. This is off the top of my head, but I'm pretty sure it's quite comprehensive

I care for women with hip problems who cannot abduct their hips, and there are ways to do this that are comfortable and dignified for you. If these ways make it 'harder' for the medical professional, that's the medic professional's fucking problem, frankly, not yours.

I encourage you to examine yourself regularly to establish what 'normal' is for you, so you're more confident in noticing change and accessing timely care. Please wash your hands thoroughly before.

You are the most important member of your healthcare team.

The US gives me nightmares honestly.

All my love and hugs to you, too,

(and thank you for loving my writing, of course 💕 Blacksmith!Nanami may solve 99% of the world's ills)

Love,

Today I had to visit a urologist urgently so I couldn't really pick and choose, which outside of emergencies I do VERY carefully these days with anything to do with gynaecology.

Far from the first time something like this happens, but I found this guy who, in so many words, essentially seemed to believe that endometriosis is a psychological disease/some kind of psychosomatic illness, and not-so-subtly tried to suggest that I get pregnant to "cure it".

Unfortunately I was too busy trying to get advice on the reason I was actually there (which by his own admission has nothing to do with endometriosis) to also ask what to do about my uterus moving around in my body, messing up my humors by causing melancholy. I shall try leeches.

So anyway. That was fun 🙃

Come beauty, you have nothing to fear. Be a good girl and get on the table.

Put your legs in the stirrups. Good, very good. Now move closer to the lower edge. Why am I tying you up? For safety, just stay calm and breathe. That's it, my sweet girl.

Let's spread those legs a little more, I need to get the best view of you.

Just lay back and relax. We'll turn on the lamp and let me feast my eyes on you. You know I don't like any of your dresses. You are beautiful when you wear the clothes I buy you. They are simple and elegant.

This is not just a simple patient gown. Just as a masterpiece is covered with a silk sheet before its big moment, I cover you with these gowns made of the finest material. This way I slowly uncover your virginal beauty and give a big moment to every part of you.

Let me take a picture of you because you look radiant today.

Lights!!

Instruments ready.

Gloves.

Now we shall begin

Don't worry, I rented the place for the whole weekend. Oh, we're going to have so much fun exploring your body.

You guys will probably be happy to know that an Italian medical team has been studying NVP (nausea and vomiting in pregnancy) with a focus especially on the sociocultural aspect, there's an article (it's in Italian but everyone can copy/paste text in a translator) that doesn't really say much as it's from a generic magazine but at least there's proof that the issues of the female body are being studied and taken seriously ✌🏼
