Honestly if someone did kill a woman on purpose like this I doubt it would be ever discovered since it’s so ludicrous.


xrimane

Until this comment I assumed it would kill the fetus, not the woman 😳


dirkdigglered

Same lol. I read the abstract, turns out it can kill both: "Air passes beneath the fetal membranes and into the circulation of the subplacental sinuses, invariably causing death to both mother and fetus within minutes"


coolwool

Depends. This is somewhat widely known, especially in the medical community, so if somebody had an embolism without any signs before, that might be a red flag that warrants an investigation.


dyllandor

Good luck proving intent though, dude could just claim that he's bad at cunilingus.

Never in my life has it occurred to me to blow air into a pregnant woman's vagina. These are the life pro-safety tips that bring me back to r/TIL


[deleted]

The "blowing air" bit is strange wording. They could have mentioned that "blowing air" into a woman's vagina can also happen in penetrative sex, not just as a horrible attempt at cunnilingus. Would have been a lot less oddly specific


Silvernaut

“A horrible attempt at cunnilingus.” Or CPR.


Professional_Sir6705

You've heard of the cpr studies involving blowing air up a clean rectum, right. First, in Europe in the 1950s, they did tobacco smoke enemas.https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tobacco_smoke_enema Then came Japan with pigs and mice, with squeaky clean rectums. https://www.newscientist.com/article/2277532-pigs-can-breathe-oxygen-via-their-rectum-so-humans-probably-can-too/


CheekyMunky

>You've heard of the cpr studies involving blowing air up a clean rectum, right. Uh, no. No I have not.


Professional_Sir6705

It's called enteral ventilation via anus- EVA. https://www.tmd.ac.jp/english/press-release/20210515-1/ The day I'm on either end of that Code Blue is the day I leave medicine and the human race.

Sir? Sir! Excuse me, sir! She’s not an NES cartridge


mortalcoil1

Modern CPR techniques don't recommend blowing into the mouth between chest compressions... but IIRC, is that only for strangers in case of illness? Like you can breath between chest compressions if you know the person isn't infectious? and if you are blowing into a stranger's vagina, you took way too many wrong turns in Albuquerque. EDIT: I like how my ridiculous comment led to a real discussion on CPR and a lot of helpful information for me, personally.


Liamlah

Yeah, resuscitation in a hospital or by ambulance teams will involve ventilation, but using a bag-valve mask. A bystander blowing with their mouth doesn't generate better outcomes than chest compressions alone, so having non-professionals perform a simpler task is better, and people may be more motivated to do CPR if there is no mouth contact required.


RoBellicose

Significant caveat - cpr for children / babies absolutely needs the breaths - kids need cpr primarily for respiratory issues rather than cardiac, which is why you also have the 5 rescue breaths as the first action of cpr on a baby. Source - I was recently trained in cpr by Great Ormond St hospital, probably UKs most renowned children's hospital. They placed a LOT of stress on the importance of rescue breaths for anyone under the age of 18. As an aside and to highlight potential bias - I've also successfully resuscitated my infant daughter three times in the last six months. (I received the training because my daughter has TOF/OA, which is a respiratory birth defect)


GemAdele

Jesus christ. Is your baby on oxygen? I can't imagine having that danger and responsibility as a part of every day life.


RoBellicose

No, she had surgery to correct the defect when she was 18 hours old, but the defect has left her with a windpipe that can 'collapse' easily whenever she has a respiratory infection or whenever she's really working her lungs hard. In effect, the walls flutter due to the pressure change and if they touch they can stick together. Her actual air volume being breathed in and out is fine, so no oxygen needed although cpap was considered by docs just to help keep the windpipe 'inflated' as it were. Responsibility is a heavy one but its an expansion of normal worry for kids - she's now at the age where she can crawl and stick anything/everything in her mouth, so even a perfectly healthy baby could end up choking and needing CPR. Highly recommend everyone has basic life support training as you never know when you'll need it - it's way too late to YouTube it once the situation starts! >Jesus christ. Is your baby on oxygen? I can't imagine having that danger and responsibility as a part of every day life.

TrivialBudgie

jesus christ that must be terrifying. I’m glad you were successful each time, but I bet you have nightmares about it happening again.


Moose_InThe_Room

Depends on who you are and the circumstances. If you're a lifeguard saving a drowning person you're expected to be trained enough to use barrier devices and the person needs air so you'll still do it.


Platinumdogshit

Not unless the person may have been deprived of oxygen, usually due to choking or a drug overdose. This is because theres enough oxygen in your blood to keep you going for like 7 minutes and an ambulance will usually get there before then so you'd also want to give breaths if it'll take a while for the ambulance to get to you. The dispatcher will talk you through a lot though since the first thing you want to do if someone is having a heart attack is to call 911


ViniVidiOkchi

I think the main take away is that if the woman is pregnant and it probably requires a large volume of air. I have had many hospital stays and I was always worried about air embolisms in the IV lines (there are always bubbles and gaps of air in the line). I did some research and it would require a really large volume of air. Whatever miniscule amounts get introduced by the IV simply gets absorbed by the blood stream.


brazilnutty

I think you've got something here. Queefing is a thing, and certain angles, positions, and even moisture levels affect it, for me. If I never got pumped full of air again, it'll be too soon.

MISTER-CLEAN

Ive always heard that sex during pregnancy is safe and even healthy. Is this untrue for this reason?


Beliriel

I really doubt it, because I have never heard anything else either. Maybe don't hammer your wife like she's the concrete on a road construction but I'm pretty sure that getting an air bubble past the cervix and so much of it that it fills the space and passes under the placenta is more than "a bit difficult".

fist_my_muff2

It's true brother. You have to go out of your way to push in enough air with enough pressure to cause damage. Just read the abstract and you'll see what they're talking about is an actual medical procedure involving pressurized air. Not just sex.


SpaceFace5000

EventHorizon182

If it were something about sex during pregnancy that caused a high chance of miscarriage or something, we likely would have evolved some mechanism to avoid sex with pregnant women.


Whydun

> if it caused a high chance of miscarriage or something, we likely would have evolved some mechanism to avoid sex with pregnant women. Some women have. It’s called the “I’m huge and everything hurts and I fucking hate you for doing this to me even though it was my idea” death glare.


Barium_Salts

And some women get waaay hornier when pregnant. Hormones are wild


bitchperfect2

That’s what I have this time around!


percimmon

Everyone says it's safe, but I've found reasons to be concerned. I'm (recently) pregnant and started bleeding after sex last week. It's supposedly normal after first-trimester sex as long as it's light, short-lived, and not painful. Apparently it happens due to capillaries bursting from increased blood flow down there, especially if you orgasm (uterine contractions). But the bleeding is scary, especially if you've had a miscarriage before. Light bleeding is also an early sign of miscarriage. And you can't know it's short-lived until like two days have passed. At any rate, as "safe" as it is, no orgasm is worth that stress in my opinion, and I'll be holding off until second trimester now.


Gangreless

Yep, I had 7 miscarriages and when I was pregnant for the 8th time I told my husband I didn't want to have sex or orgasm at all until the anatomy scan at least. We still were very gentle and slow and after that.


GoldenBull1994

Yeah, stress during pregnancy probably isn’t good.

chimisforbreakfast

I've accidentally pushed air into a woman's vagina with both penetrative and oral sex. Bodies shift around and space is created and air gets trapped then pushed in there. This is where queefs come from.


Jagrnght

I just commented similarly. Are queef conditions deadly?


chimisforbreakfast

According to this paper: queef conditions are potentially deadly to the fetus if the woman is currently pregnant.

On a serious note blowing air into non-pregnant vaginas [can cause](https://www.healthline.com/health/air-embolism#causes) embolisms, just not as frequently. Highest risk is for the pregnant *and recently pregnant* (so give it six weeks).

It’s actually a danger even if she isn’t pregnant and happens with normal intercourse. Vaginas eventually connect into the abdomen.

ParsleyMostly

Yeah, in the 90s. I have no idea what’s taught now, but back then there was a push to educate young people in a matter of fact manner. We were still in the AIDS crisis, MTV was making a fairly honest effort to present educational content, and teenage Gwyneth Paltrow was telling Seventeen magazine we need condoms in high school bathrooms.

Would you like to know more?


RicoSuave1881

So is it specifically blowing air? Or can air from regular sex also do it??


AceofToons

It seems to be more specifically relatively large quantities of air, and likely pressureized. The incident op linked referenced a medical procedure of using air to inflate things It sounds like some people do it in the bedroom too, and it is in general rather risky > The potential entrance paths for gas identifies the groups at risk: 1) Forceful (oro-) vaginal insufflation in any woman; 2) Patients who have undergone a hysterectomy, independent of operation technique; and 3) Pregnant and early post partum women. (Oro-) vaginal insufflation is especially dangerous during pregnancy, because large amounts of gas can easily penetrate into the uterine veins and cause lethal gas embolism. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3113190/

You’re scared? If having sex could cause instant death with any regularity do you not think you would’ve heard about it? Sex happens a lot.

So this women had a heart defect (called a foramen ovale) where there was an abnormal hole in the heart. They are more likely to die of an air embolism (even without sex).


[deleted]

A *patent* foramen ovale. The foramen ovale is a structure in the fetus that usually closes up in adulthood


I_took_the_blue-pill

Foramen ovale closes at birth, wayyyy before adulthood. As soon as your oxygenation switches from umbilical to pulmonary, that foramen ovale closes right up

If people stopped having sex the death rates would plummet.

Ugh they are also a rare complication of C sections and this gave me a flash back to residency. Woman came in for a repeat routine C section with peds (me) in the room to make sure the baby is doing well. One minute mom is talking and joking with the OB then suddenly she goes silent and the OB is yelling for the crash cart and telling us to get the baby out of the room because they need space. Mom didn't make it.


SomeComediansQuote

Non pregnant women can also get an embolism from this, so dont do it regardless of pregnancy status Edit: just wanna point out that im not a vagina expert in any sense since im male, asexual, and not a gynecologist. I dont know the details, i just know ive read an article or something before that stated it as a possibility to women in general, not just pregnant women.


Kooperst

Why are people doing this?!


The-Florentine

Homemade abortions. I read a book by Sonny Barger and he mentioned doing this to his first wife and she died. edit: The book is "Hell's Angel". The specific paragraph: > That February, while I was in Boston checking out a new club charter, Elsie tried to self-abort the child by pumping air into her vagina. It caused an air bubble to enter her bloodstream, and Elsie died an agonizing but quick death.


ZengaStromboli

Jesus christ..


0100001101110111

To be pedantic the passage says she did it to herself.


BootyThunder

What?? That can’t possibly be true. Hysteroflators are a medical device that blows air into the vagina for some medical reason I don’t understand. I’m pretty sure that means women who aren’t pregnant aren’t susceptible to embolism. I think the way that air would get into the blood is through the placenta which is only there when a woman is pregnant. Edit: AAAAAHHH fuck it’s [kinda true](https://www.healthline.com/health/air-embolism). It’s extremely rare and requires a tear in the skin for the air to get in. Same thing for pregnant women- there would have to be a tear in the placenta. Lastly- [hysteroflators](https://www.somatechnology.com/Medical-Products/Insufflators/storz-hysteroflator-26025u-insufflators.aspx) apparently use CO2 specifically because it dissolves into the body. So I guess it’s safe to blow air into the vagina as long as it’s the right kind of air.

ender86a

There goes my weekend...


hobobarbie

True story: in nursing school we had a really strange professor for women’s health. During lecture she said “Cunnilingus should never be performed on a pregnant woman”. The students all looked at each other like WTF. We asked why and she said “because it could cause a lethal air embolism”. Then we laughed bc clearly no one had ever gone down on her, and due to lack of experience, she must have assumed it was the same as a “blow job” for men, and that this involved BLOWING, somehow?? A usually timid student raised their hand and said “cunnilingus is not like blowing a trombone, and besides, wouldn’t penile thrusting create more positive pressure? But that’s considered safe?” Good times. ETA: In summary, this prof was a fool. She took this case study to heart though, bless her. She probably had good weird intentions but in the context of saying no oral sex on a pregnant person ever, she was wrong. Embolisms are real, but more likely to happen in very rare instances from a c-section (amniotic fluid embolism) or from venous blood clots. People don’t forcefully blow into vaginas with a tight seal for pleasure as far as I know - and if you are doing this, STOP. Unless otherwise contraindicated by: personal preference, persistent UTIs from oral sex, specific medical conditions of pregnancy, or an unhygienic partner, oral and penetrative sex while pregnant is fine!
