Many people wonder: “How many holes does a woman have?” or “What is the fourth hole?” The answer is simple, but let’s break it down clearly.
How Many Openings Does a Woman Have?
Women have three external openings in the genital and anal area:
1️⃣ Urethral Opening (Pee Hole)
- Location: Just below the clitoris, above the vaginal opening.
- Function: Where urine exits the body.
Fun fact: This is not connected to the reproductive system!
2️⃣ Vaginal Opening (Birth Canal)
- Location: Below the urethra.
- Functions:
- Menstrual blood exits here.
- Babies pass through during birth.
- Used for tampons, menstrual cups, and penetrative sex.
3️⃣ Anus (Butthole)
- Location: Below the vaginal opening.
- Function: Where stool (poop) leaves the body.
Note: Some people enjoy anal play, but always use lube and toys with a flared base for safety!
The “Fourth Hole” Myth: Does It Exist?
No, women have three anatomical openings in the pelvic region. Sometimes people confuse structures like the cervix (the entrance to the uterus) as a “hole,” but it’s not an external opening.
