Queefing. It’s a funny word and can even be funny in person, but it can also be uncomfortable. A lot of people don’t know how to respond to a queef or even understand what causes queefing. Rest assured that it’s normal to queef and that you shouldn’t be too worried about it. But if queefing is a problem, there may be something you can do about it.
What Is a Queef, Anyway?
Simply put, a queef happens when air that’s been forced into your vagina needs to escape [1, 2]. When you’re aroused, your vagina expands in a process known as vaginal tenting [3] that raises the uterus [4] and shifts its position [5]. This doesn’t just mean that there’s more room for a penis or toy; however, there’s also more room for air to hide out.

It will teach you how to have multiple vaginal and full body orgasms during sex and masturbation. It works even if you currently struggle to orgasm during sex or when masturbating. You can find out more here.
Thrusting during sex causes air to repeatedly be pushed into your vagina, which is why you queef during sex and occasionally other times. The vagina isn’t an endless cavern. In most bodies, the vagina ends at the cervix, the entrance to the uterus.

And the air in the vagina must escape somehow. It’s simply physics at work! This is why you might notice some queefing when you’re submerged in water, such as in the pool or bathtub. Speaking of sex in water, it can be a lot of fun!
Of course, the air’s escape route might cause some interesting physical feelings, as well as a loud fart noise, which is really what a queef is and why some people refer to, is as a “vaginal fart.” But it can take you by surprise if you’ve never heard what a queef sounds like.
Queefing doesn’t hurt you in any way; although, it might be startling, embarrassing, or even funny.

You’ve probably experienced queefing at other times, though. Exercising is also a culprit when it comes to causing vaginal flatulence AKA queefing. Some women report having more queefs than normal when it comes to getting into their typical yoga positions.
Maybe you even notice that you queef during sex more after you have performed certain types of exercise.
You might make a joke about it with your yogi girlfriends, or you may have talked to your best friend or sister about these sounds that happen during sex. If you do, you’ll realize you’re far from alone. And it seems like everyone wants to stop queefing after sex—and during.
How to Prevent Queefing
Most methods you can use to stop queefing during sex revolve around controlling the angle or force of thrusting. Try these steps the next time you have sex with your man to avoid queefing:
- Slow down the pace of thrusting.
- Thrust less deeply. Try wrapping your fingers around the base of his cock to decrease the depth of penetration.
- Switch out positions if one position makes you queef more often. Try one where you’re on top or rocking rather than thrusting.
- Try using more (or less) lube to see if it helps.
- Raise your hips (or his) with a pillow to change the angle of entry.
Pay attention to the sex positions that cause you to queef. If you need some alternatives, why not try some from this master list of sex positions? However, switching positions frequently can lead to more queefing, so you may want to cut down on the number of positions per session to reduce queefing.
The position isn’t the only factor at play when it comes to vaginal farts. Some women report more queefing during sex during certain periods of their menstrual cycles. There isn’t any research about this at the moment, but plenty of women have reported their experiences. But we know that the muscles of your uterus can contract during menstruation [6], which might be key if you tend to queef in monthly cycles. Checking the calendar might shed some insight into why you queef so much.
Finally, some people believe that you can prevent vaginal farts by practicing Kegels. These exercises are named after the doctor who invented them to help with urinary incontinence [7]. But Kegels reportedly have a bunch of sexual benefits too, including stronger orgasms. In the case of queefing after sex, strengthening your muscles might stop air from escaping so easily.

Quick Quiz: Do You Give Lousy Blow Jobs?
If you are new here, then you may want to take the quiz below to learn how good you are at giving oral sex and satisfying your man. You may discover you that you suck (pun intended) or that you are already a blow job queen.
However, you may not be able to stop queefing every time, and that’s okay! Here’s the thing…If you’re close enough to a man to be intimate with him, you should be prepared to laugh off the embarrassment. Sex involves our bodies, flaws, and all, and all the included bodily fluids and functions. Queefing is just one of those, and something specifically caused or exacerbated by sex.
And if you’re not well acquainted with a man you’re having sex with, you either won’t see him again, or you will get to know him better, and a little queefing shouldn’t scare him off. However, you can try to minimize how noticeable queefing is during the act. Consider a white noise machine or even just a fan, so your bedroom isn’t dead quiet. If you’re a heavy moaner, utter his name, which he’s sure to remember over a queef.
You might try listening to music or putting on some porn in the background to drown out the sound, but that’s really not necessary with this normal bodily function. When a queef happens, many people ignore it. Some people laugh it off, and isn’t laughter the best medicine, anyway? If you feel like this is something you want to talk to your partner about, consult this guide to sexual communication. Remember, every woman with a vagina has queefed, which means most of your partners have probably experienced it before.
Sex can be awkward, but that can be part of the experience, especially if you’re able to incorporate laughter and humor into your romps in the sack. Getting over awkward things like queefing, farting, having difficulty with positions, slippery hands from lube, and bumping your head on the headboard are things most sexually active people have to do. You wouldn’t want to stop having fun just because someone farted, would you?
This post will help you get over sexual anxiety from queefing and other concerns.
And many women find it’s not that big of a deal once it happens the first time. A queef lasts a few seconds, which is nothing compared to the time spent having sex or the endless memories you can make with your man in the bedroom.
When to See a Doctor
Although it’s normal to queef during sex, there may be something more serious going on if your queefs are especially smelly. This occasionally happens when a tear known as a rectovaginal fistula develops between the anus and vagina, resulting in fecal matter entering the vagina [8]. This leakage can cause an unpleasant smell, too, so it’s different from queefing during sex. A rectovaginal fistula can lead to urinary tract infections and bacterial vaginosis. If you have symptoms of rectovaginal fistula, contact your doctor as soon as possible.
Pelvic floor disorders such as prolapse may also contribute to queefing [9].
However, rest assured that this isn’t the case with most women, who are experiencing everyday queefs. It’s good to monitor your body for any changes, but queefing doesn’t present the same worries as a sexually transmitted infection, for instance. If you want to take control of your sex life, make sure you’re using condoms, getting screened for STIs after every new partner, and knowing your partner’s status. Listen for and respect changes to your body, such as burning after sex rather than worrying about whether you queef or not.
Queefing is just one of your body’s natural responses and abilities. Those abilities range from having G-spot and nipple orgasms to becoming pregnant and birthing a child, healing after an injury, running a marathon, and so much more. So the key is learning to love your body in spite of the occasional queef.
Orgasm Every Time. Easily. Here’s How...
I want to tell you about my friend Karen.
Karen came to me one day. She was hysterical.
She told me that her marriage was falling apart because she and her husband didn’t have satisfying sex.
Every time they were intimate, Karen was faking her orgasms. It turns out she couldn’t orgasm during sex.
In fact...
She never had an orgasm in her entire life. Not one!
This left her feeling embarrassed and ashamed. And...
She completely hid this from her husband. Thankfully...
It turns out that there is a way for any woman to orgasm. Easily. And have multiple vaginal and full body orgasms during sex and masturbation.
I shared the process with Karen.
After she followed the simple process, she could barely come to terms with how...
Quickly and dramatically her sex life changed.
We met up a few months later and...
She would not stop talking about it,
“I thought I was one of those women who couldn’t orgasm. I used to think I was ‘broken’ and ‘unfixable.’ This saved my sex life, and that saved my marriage.”
Even if you currently struggle to orgasm during sex or when masturbating, this process will also work for you.
And best of all, you don’t need to do anything weird or uncomfortable to start having the best orgasms and sex of your life.
Yes!! Great article, this happened continuously (the queefing ) last night during your typical doggie style!! Each time it sounded like I ripped a big one right on his dick! Luckily it didn’t seem to bother him nor prevent him from finishing his business… but listening to myself ( who let the queefs out?!!) Really took me back and turned me off! Luckily I know it’s from his thrusting and the position and what not!! So thanks again!! 🙂
Why would any girl try to prevent it! Its a huuuge turnon for me.
While having sex a few months ago i noticed something…the only time I would queef is when my head was below my vag. It seems like the most reliable way to prevent queefs is to keep my head above my vagina. I’ve been trying it and so far it’s correct. Doggy style with my face down, I’ll queef. Put my head up- no queefing. Even upside down or from the sides…soon as my head drops lower than wherever my vag hole may be I’m at risk for queefing.
Anyway to confirm this isn’t just me?
Yes My lady does QUEEF and i enjoy it cause it shows of how deep and manly shes getting it.
Personal i dont mind her doing it or rather MAKING HER FART!
I recently have noticed when I long stroke my woman in doggy position she has been queefing I just keep going an play it off I wouldn’t want to embarrass my lady because I’m a freak as is. I’ve been doing it for hours lately an not even busting one. Therefore ladies it’s not a big deal as long your man genuinely cares about you. 🙂 There’s been plenty times I’ve gotten head an had some gas an right as I climax I let a lil fart out lol if you can’t be comfortable around your partner you should prolly wait before really getting that intimate with them anyways.
Doggy style = more chance of queefing. Something about the way the bodies are positioned and the thrusting which forces more air in there. If it happens once or twice in a session, my partner will ignore it and keep going. But if it keeps happening, we stop a minute and just laugh it off, and I maneuver into another position. Missionary or woman on top usually fixes it. Funny how that funny noise doesn’t happen every time we do the doggy, though. Can anyone explain why?
I honestly never had an issue with queefing until I met my fiance. Honestly, we’ve been together for a year and it happens while in doggy, which I know is normal. For some reason, I just can’t get over it. Dunno if that is just the poor self-esteem or what, but damn it’s really getting to me. My man doesn’t seem to mind, and we joke, but I feel so… ashamed. I just want to enjoy sex instead of obsessing over a normal body function! Problem is, doggy is my favorite, and he knows that, so typically that’s his go to. He tells me not to worry; that it is normal, and it’s because I’m wet and enjoying it. It’s kinda what keeps me from panicking too much.
Hi Sara, like you said yourself, it’s completely normal. There really isn’t any need to feel ashamed about a totally normal thing. My advice is to keep joking about it. Of course if it really does bother you, then try varying the angle until to find one that works for both of you.
My partner is okay with my queefing but it’s honestly hella embarrasing. It only happens when I spread my legs, or even stand up after our sex sesh! But this article is really helpful, hopefully when I try these, it’ll prevent most from happening…
Wow I love this article. I’ve always had an issue with queefing the moment I hear myself queef it’s totally sets me off. It makes me feel so bad and I tend to think about what my partner might think. I don’t how he feels about it and I am wondering how I should bring it up in order to feel a little secure with my body cause he tells me am great in every way possible.
This article is very informative and I will try the ways it says to try reduce my queefing but I’m still alittle unsure due to every position I’m in I seem to queef although my partner doesn’t seem to mind it but I do if I hear myself queef I stop the second I hear it and then things get awkward how do I stop this I’m so embarrassed
Ive been with my man for 8 yrs and alot of the times ae have sex in doggie position i let out a queef after were finished. Its embaracing to me he knows its his fault for packing in the air but thats the only position that makes me queef. Sadly its my favorite position and when my ass is up and my face down thats the angle that makes me queef. If my head is up i dont if i stand up backwards i dont queef only when my head is down and my ass is up. Thats also his favorite way as well…but once i queef or fill the air pack in as he can tell immidiatly when air rushes in it turns me off. I know im not loose and his penis aint small i just wish i could brush it off but i cant it makes me go dry and thats all i think about. But befor the queefing thats my favorite way to take it. I sometimes push the air out as quickly as it comes in but the second i take a breath again it fills sith air. I hate it. He dont seem to care nor mind but i wonder if hes just being nice about it and hates it as much as me lol. Our sex life is wobderful and he doesnt go soft when i queef just i seem to get dry and its hard for me to cum because i feel nasty when i queef. It sucks that its our favorite posistion and feels the best…idk i just dont like queefs. Im glad im not the only one that has this problem only during sex and in the same head down ass up position. The article deff helped but im also still not cool with the whole queefing thing. And it never happend until i was with my man im with now…just our luck i guess lol
Hi Kayla, You’ll most likely find that your man doesn’t really care if you queef or not. Talk to him about it and you’ll discover that it’s just not really a big deal.
My wife queefs a lot during sex, exercise and yoga. Once during oral she queefed so loud that it blew my hair and startled me. We both laughed a little. After all these years together we don’t really care. Like other commenters, the queefing is worse during doggy.Keep on tootin’ ladies! It’s no big deal.
I only struggle after sex when we go to get off of the bed and it happens like 3 times. My husband majorly messes with me about it. I was hoping to find out a way to prevent or quietly expelled the air after sex.
You can always insert one finger and push down and then push the air out. That usually helps with the volume of it
Is….it normal that I can queef on commands?
Like I can suck the vagina in to let the air in, and push my vagina outwards to let the air go??
I’ve never had sex but I’m worried I might be loose?
My problem isn’t that it happens during sex but when I’m doing handstands. I’m a gymnast and never experienced it before I had sex. Ever since I first had sex I queef every time I handstand which is really embarrassing
I’ve been having this issue lately when we do doggy style and during foreplay. I’ve noticed that when I’m giving him foreplay and my ass is in the air I queef a lot and he mentions how I’ve been doing a lot lately and it makes me feel unattractive and like he’s turned off. Kinda like I’m too loose even tho I knkw I’m not. After reading some of these comments I’m going to try to keep my ass out of the air and see if it helps lol
I used to queef all the time when I was getting rammed by the bf in the starbucks bathroom. IT was soo embarassing when the barista called out my drink and I had a queef bigger than my venti macchaito!!
She said “excuse me?” and I kept opening and closing my hand in front of her face making “woosh” noises and telling her “your memery is being erased and you will forget this ever happened” This continued for a couple minutes until I realized she would never forget about about this queef incident.
Lucky I have a very supportive bf and he said not to sweat it as he popped three splendas into his pike place roast.
It’s happened a couple times since in the A&W drive thru but I feel a lot more accepting of it now and have learned to laugh it off. My bf doesn’t mind either and sees it as a rite of passage to my vagina.
Girls stop sweating it. It’s very normal and most of us men love knowing our tools can cause feedback during a moment of pleasure!!
My girl does it repeatedly every time she gets aroused. Her vagina just starts contracting and the queefing begins before I’ve even touched her. It doesn’t really bother me except when I try to go down on her and then she really gets excited and it’s just blowing in my face. Not a turn on. Is there anything that can be done about this?
Changing the angle may help with this. For example try placing a pillow (or two) under her hips.
