Doc shocks as she reveals true ‘primary function’ of the vagina

A TikTok doctor has boldly declared what she believes to be the main function of the vagina.

Dr. Teresa Irwin — a self-described “vaginacologist” who specializes in female pelvic dysfunctions — clocked 567,300 views with the controversial clip that she recently shared on the social media site.

In the viral video — which now appears to be deleted — Irwin appears in blue scrubs as she asks viewers to guess the primary function of a woman’s private part.

The Texas physician goes on to state that most people believe the main function of a vagina is to “have babies.”

“Yes, the vagina serves the purpose to have babies, but we can also have babies through an abdominal incision, otherwise known as a Caesarean section,” she states.

“Another answer I get is to have periods and yes the vagina does serve the function of having periods. But that is not the primary function – what is the primary function?” Irwin teases.

The TikTok doc then revealed her answer, cheekily stating: “Sex!”

Irwin then explained why sex serves as the primary function of the vagina, saying: “Why? Because once you go through menopause you can no longer have periods and you can no longer have babies.”

She then enthusiastically declares: “But what can you continue to have? Sex!”

The doctor’s video thrilled TikTokers, with many female viewers feeling compelled to share secrets from their own sex lives.

“It only gets BETTER!!!! 65 and lovin’ it!!” one mature-aged TikTok user enthused.

“My new favorite doctor!” another woman chimed in humorously.

“Thank you for the reminder, I’ve let mine get a little dusty for the last two years!” a third female joked.

Meanwhile, Irwin’s video also attracted the attention of many male viewers, who also shared their thoughts.

“My wife apparently didn’t get the message!” one sex-starved man quipped.

Dr. Irwin boasts more than 80,000 followers on TikTok where she frequently shares videos about vaginal health.

In a recent clip, she revealed easy ways that women can avoid a yeast infection in the summer months, telling views to abstain from using tampons and staying in sweaty workout clothes.
