Q.
Hey, well i've always been kind of confused about something. Ok, so i know that a girl has 3 holes down there. I've been trying to insert tampons and i have had no success. So ok, there is the pee hole at the top of this round thing. And then i was wondering if your vagina is on that little round thing down there or if it's directly behind it. I'm sorry if this is hard to understand but i'm having a hard time explaining it. Anyway, any help at all would be great. Thanks.
A.
Thanks for your question. There are two different openings in a woman's vulva: the urethra (pee or wee hole) and the vagina. A woman's urethra is above the opening of the vagina. It is very small and is not always easy to see. The vagina connects a woman's outer sex organs with her internal reproductive organ, the uterus. Female anatomy can be confusing so I have included some links with diagrams that might help clear things up for you.
Try reading the directions for using tampons since they have illustrations and information that you might find useful. You might also want to try using a mirror, some time and privacy to explore your own anatomy. Getting to know one's own genitals can be a great way to help women understand what is normal for them!
