Q. What are Kegel exercises and where can I find out more?

Developed by gynecologist Arnold Kegel, these are exercises designed to strengthen the pubococcygeus muscle, the pelvic area's major sphincter, often called "the love muscle." If you can stop the flow of your urine midstream, you've located it. Man or woman, if one practices contracting this muscle in rhythmic patterns, intercourse can be made more enjoyable by giving each partner more voluntary genital control. Browse in the Sexuality section of a library or bookstore and check the index of any sexuality textbook you pick up. Many describe the specific exercises.
