“Some women have an inverted uterus or cervix which can cause some discomfort with penetration.
“Different anatomy types can make deeper penetration painful,” Chavez says. Keep in mind that deep penetration isn’t for everyone. She also recommends using “adequate lubrication” which can help you both get deep and feel comfortable in the process. If you don’t do sex positions for deep penetration on the reg, you may want to consider taking a few steps to make yourself as comfortable as possible when you do try them out, Chavez says.
But the kind of sex you’re used to and your actual anatomy play a role in how pleasurable deep penetration is for you, she says. “Deeper penetration can provide multi-sensory stimulation to different erogenous zones on the body, including more friction on the clitoris, stimulation of the G-spot and A-spot, and even cervical stimulation,” says Shannon Chavez, PsyD, a licensed psychologist and K-Y’s sex therapist. But what if you’re looking to literally go deep? You know, as in explore spaces no penis, dildo, or strap-on has gone before with sex positions designed for deep penetration? Well, that's pretty freaking hot, too. Staring into each other's eyes and synchronizing your breath for deep, passionate sex can be pretty mind-blowing.
