Having sexual intercourse can become a risky activity if we take into account that there are certain positions that can lead to penis fracture. A team of scientists from the Medical School of the State University of Campinas (Brazil) has located the most dangerous sexual position. And it is one of the most common .
For their experiment, the experts examined the cases of 44 men who presented, in a period of 13 years, a fracture of the penis . Of all the cases, 28 of them occurred in heterosexual relationships, 4 during homosexual sex and 6 of them by manipulation of the penis and 4 in circumstances difficult to describe.
The study, published in the journal Advances in Urology , explains that half of the patients recalled hearing a click or crack and subsequent pain during sex, but it took between 5 or 6 hours to go to the hospital, either out of embarrassment or because of ignorance of the importance of that “click”.
The investigations concluded that one of the most common positions when having sexual intercourse, in which the woman is on top of the man, is the most dangerous, since it has turned out to be responsible for half of all penile fractures. of the study. Thus, 22 penile fractures were caused by this posture .
“Our study supports the fact that sexual intercourse with the woman on top is the potentially most risky sexual position with respect to penile fracture,” the authors clarify.
The reason seems to be that since the woman is on top of the man when penetration occurs, the man is unable to know if he is dealing with a wrong penetration since the damage it causes in the woman is almost imperceptible.
