Dr. Rea Malik, a urologist and pelvic surgeon, explains the phenomenon of squirting, its anatomy, and composition.
Summary
- Squirting is the emission of a large volume of clear, odorless fluid from the urethra during orgasm.
- The anatomy involved includes the urethra, Skene's glands (female prostate), and the clitoris.
- Squirting fluid contains PSA, indicating Skene's glands contribute, but it's also similar to diluted urine.
- Small studies suggest squirting involves fluid from the bladder, but it's not the same as peeing.
- The exact nature of squirting fluid is still debated, with personal anecdotes challenging some study findings.
Chapter 1
Dr. Rea Malik introduces the topic of squirting and promotes her MD podcast.
- Dr. Rea Malik discusses the concept of squirting, questioning whether it's urine or something else.
- She invites viewers to subscribe and review her podcast, mentioning a giveaway.
- The purpose of the podcast is to spread quality, evidence-based education.
Chapter 2
Dr. Malik explains the anatomical structures involved in squirting.
- The urethra, Skene's glands (homologous to the male prostate), and the clitoris are key to understanding squirting.
- Skene's glands produce a fluid that contains PSA, similar to the male prostate.
- The clitoris, a pleasure organ, swells with blood during arousal, potentially influencing squirting.
Chapter 3
An overview of the physiological changes during sexual arousal that lead to the emission of fluids.
- Lubricant is emitted from the vaginal walls during arousal.
- Female ejaculate, a whitish fluid, comes from the Skene's glands in small amounts.
- The engorged clitoris and urethra, during orgasm, may release fluid from the Skene's glands, causing squirting.
Chapter 4
Dr. Malik compares male and female reproductive anatomy to contextualize squirting volume.
- The weight of Skene's glands is compared to the male prostate to infer the potential fluid volume produced.
- Male semen volume is broken down by source, suggesting that the female Skene's glands alone cannot account for the large volume of squirting.
Chapter 5
An examination of the chemical makeup of the squirting fluid and its similarities to urine.
- Squirting fluid contains PSA, linking it to the Skene's glands.
- Small studies suggest the bladder contributes to the fluid, showing a diluted urine-like composition.
- There are conflicting personal accounts regarding the color of squirting fluid versus urine.
Chapter 6
Dr. Malik discusses studies and theories that attempt to explain the origin of squirting fluid.
- Studies using ultrasound and colored substances suggest squirting involves bladder fluid.
- Theories propose that physiological responses to sex may alter the chemical composition of the bladder's contents.
- Audience messages provide anecdotal evidence challenging the notion that squirting fluid is urine.
Chapter 7
Dr. Malik concludes that squirting is not peeing, but it is a complex phenomenon involving multiple factors.
- Squirting is not simply peeing; it's more dilute and contains contributions from the Skene's glands.
- Whether squirting involves urine leakage varies among individuals.
- The significance of squirting varies, and Dr. Malik refers to another video surveying women's feelings about it.
