"Woman on top" is the most dangerous sex position, according to a new scientific study.
Scientists have found that the position, dubbed the "cowgirl", is responsible for half of all penile fractures in the bedroom.
The research also revealed that the "doggy-style" position, with women on all fours, is behind 29% of afflictions. In contrast, the traditional "man on top" is responsible for just 21%.
Doctors looked at patients attending three emergency units in Campinas, a city of three million people in Brazil, with suspected penile fractures over 13 years.
Half of them reported hearing a crack before experiencing pain.
The research concluded: "Our study supports the fact that during sexual intercourse
the woman on top is the riskiest sexual position related to penile fracture."Our hypothesis is that when the woman is on top she usually controls the movement with her entire body weight landing on the erect penis, not being able to interrupt it when the penis suffers a wrong way penetration.
"When the man is controlling the movement, he has better chances of stopping the penetration in response to pain," the research said.
The study found that of 44 men at the hospitals, 28 were injured in heterosexual romps, four during homosexual intercourse, six as a result of "penis manipulation" and four in circumstances which were "unclear".
