Your Question:
Dear Experts,
Is it bad for a woman to have sex in water. I heard it pushes water in the vagina and can cause problems. Is that true.

The Answer:
Dear njaws007,
Having intercourse in the water is not dangerous. However, it may not be very comfortable because water can wash away the lubrication in the vagina, causing unpleasant friction. And remember that pregnancy can happen any time ejaculate or pre-ejaculate is spilled in the vagina or on or near the vulva - whether it occurs on "dry land" or in the water.
Hope this information helps!
Take care,
