The Deep Spot

The clitoris is great. The g-spot is amazing. But have you heard of the deep spots? These areas have incredible orgasmic potential!

What is the deep spot?

Located deep in the vagina — right at the back, near the cervix — this area has two key spots. One towards the front (the front deep spot, 7 cm in) and an even more sensitive one towards the back (the back deep spot, 9 cm in).

Areas around 2 cm in diameter where nerve endings are particularly concentrated.

What are they for? Well, giving you pleasure, of course.

As with its cousin the g-spot, gentle pressure works better than rubbing to stimulate it. Hidden deep inside, it’s quite hard to reach with your fingers unless they’re long. In that case, try a middle finger (yours or someone else’s — we’ll leave that up to you).

Even so, it’s an area that’s much easier to stimulate with a penis or a sex toy!

With a partner, choose positions that allow deep penetration, such as cowgirl or doggy style. As for sex toys, bigger isn’t necessarily better! Don’t worry, XXL models aren’t essential. If larger sizes intimidate you or simply aren’t your thing, slimmer options can still do the trick — the main thing is to have a bit of length. The back deep spot, meanwhile, can be stimulated during anal sex, with or without sex toys.

Some people worry that penetration might hurt, especially when it’s deep. This can be particularly true for people with endometriosis, as the area near the cervix may be very sensitive. Don’t force yourself! Thankfully, there are countless ways to enjoy pleasure thanks to all the erogenous zones our bodies have to offer!
