SEX POSITIONS
The Best Sex Positions for Prostate Orgasm
Published: SEPTEMBER 14, 2023
Hitting just the right spot for prostate orgasm during penetrative sex takes careful positioning.
Intercourse can already feel amazing, but what if you could make it even better?
Yeah, that's right: the sex positions you choose could stimulate the prostate. Not only would you get the already-amazing sensations of intercourse, but you'd get the added bonus of stimulating one of the most orgasmic erogenous zones. It isn't called "the male G-spot" for nothing.
And prostate orgasms? Well, they'd be possible!
It's the sex version of having your cake and eating it too! No wonder people love prostate sex positions so much!
Here we'll provide some tips on how to stimulate the prostate in penetrative sex positions and provide some of our favorite sex positions for doing that.
Make Prostate Sex Positions Work for YOUR Bodies
Just like choosing sex positions for G-spot play, sex positions that target the prostate can help you hit the prostate during penetration, but they aren't miracle workers. If you've never found your prostate or aren't turned on, we can't guarantee prostate bliss.
That said, there's a way to improve your chances! Just make sure to know where your prostate is - and what motions and movements best hit it. This might mean playing with fingers, prostate massagers, or dildos for a bit to explore what works best. Once you have that data, you can easily apply it to any sex position (including these!) to best figure out how to hit your or your partner's P-spot!
This prostate focused content can help:
Everyone's anatomy is also different. That means a penis curve or pronounced pelvic tilt could change how the sex position feels on both of your bodies! So if the first prostate sex position doesn't work, consider trying a new one.
"Oh no, even more sex! How terrible!"
The uniqueness of our bodies and our sexual responses are part of what make sex so amazing, so don't be afraid to toss one position out the window if it just isn't working for you. You know your body better than anyone else!
That being said, if you're using a strap-on dildo and harness to achieve these sex positions, you might consider swapping up the dildo - or even twisting the way the dildo is facing inside of the harness - to get the sensations you're seeking. If you have the ability to swap out your "penis", why not use it? You might find a longer, shorter, thicker, or slimmer dildo helps hit the prostate better than your original choice.
Now, on to some of our favorite prostate-focused sex positions!
Leapfrog Sex Position
![diagram of the leapfrog sex position - the receiving partner kneels down and lowers their forearms and head onto the bed and raises their rear to be penetrated from behind by their kneeling partner.]()
Starting easy, I bet you can see exactly how the Leapfrog Position would nestle the penetrating partner's penis or dildo into the prostate. The low, arched angle of the receiver's hips can help expose the prostate, while the penetrating partner's higher ground can make it easier to hit it. Both of these things work together to make the magic happen - and without getting too complicated!
Good to Know: Both partners can adjust their angle to really get things in the right spot with this sex position. The receiving partner can play with their pelvic tilt while the penetrating partner can lean in or lean backwards to change their penis trajectory with each thrust.
Try It With: A bit of bondage! The elevated, "face down, butt up" position of the receiver can make the Leap Frog position feel a bit kinky. Adding some restraints to the mix can really make it feel kinky. A spreader bar at the receiver's ankles wouldn't get in the way, and you have all the options open with the receiver's upper body. Restraints could also be added to the penetrating partner, but I recommend a bit of caution to ensure your bondage doesn't get in the way of their balanced position.

Hooked In Sex Position

The from-behind set-up of the Hooked In Position can really target the prostate. At the same time, all of the skin-on-skin contact can feel intimate despite the lack of face-to-face positioning here.
Stability should always come first, so choose an angle for both partners that allows you to stay safely upright. However, if you want to explore different angles for prostate pleasure, doing the HookedIn Position up against a wall allows the receiver to lean forward to brace themselves to direct the penis (or dildo!) into different spots.
Good to Know: The Hooked In position really requires that both partners have about the same thigh height. For many couples, this won't be the case. Doing this position on stairs (if you have the balance!) or on top of an elevated surface (like an aerobics step!) can help even out the height differences if you still want to try it.
Try It With: Large sex toys! As shown, the receiving partner is using a penis stroker (the KIIROO KEON!) on themselves to add even more sensations. Wand massagers or sex machines could also fit, with room to spare, to pleasure the receiving partner. If you both time it right, this could be a sex position that offers synchronized orgasms with the help of favorite toys.
Happy Baby Sex Position
This Happy Baby position is famous for G-spot stimulation; it can be just as good for those seeking prostate pleasure. The folded-up position of the receiving partner really places the prostate as close to the surface as possible, making it easier to hit during intercourse. Now, you'll have to be folded into a pretzel to make that happen, but even less extreme versions of this position can still reap some of the P-spot pleasure benefits.
Good to Know: If you're a receiving partner with a penis, having the penetrating partner lie on top of the penis (and testicles!) can be uncomfortable during Happy Baby. Make sure to speak up if you need the penetrating partner to support more of their body weight and reduce pressure on the testicles.
Try It With: This position is famous enough that sex toy manufacturers craft sex positioning straps just to make this position more comfortable for the receiver. The Sportsheets Sex Sling and G-Spot Link help anchor the ankles near the head to reduce strain on the receiving partner.
Eiffel Tower Sex Position

The deep, bent over position of the Eiffel Towel Sex Position can make it a prostate-seeker's best friend. Not only does this make the anal canal feel tighter, but it helps direct the penis towards the innermost, sensitive spots that might be harder to hit in your standard sex positions.
While many people will find that the Eiffel Tower hits their prostate as-is, this is a great position in which to experiment with dildos or penis extenders if you aren't feeling that P-spot touch. Thicker options may better hit the spot with this one.
Good to Know: This sex position requires a deep stretch and some good flexibility from the receiver, but you can cheat your way a little bit. Simply do this sex position in front of a sturdy, stable surface that the receiver can lean onto. Your bed or a chair (braced up against the wall) can be a great surface for the receiver to lean on. This reduces the active flexibility required from the receiver while simultaneously reducing the balancing act required to pull off this position.
Try It With: A penis extender. The deep, bent over position of the receiver makes anal canal feel tight. Plus, if you both love the feeling of fullness, making the penis a bit thicker can feel drastically different in this position. Try a vibrating penis extender, like the Zero Tolerance Cock Armor or Gender X Rocketeer, to add sensations for both partners.
Happy Scissors Sex Position

Add a bit of flavor (and P-spot seeking!) to your standard Missionary position with the Happy Scissors position. Resting the receiver's hips on top of the penetrating partner's lap makes it easier to target the prostate than standard Missionary position. It's almost like you're using their lap like sex furniture to make it easier to hit that innermost spot.
Good to Know: The receiver's pelvic tilt can really matter here. Think about arching the back - or crunching inwards to help adjust your pelvic tilt. You'll probably find that one of the options feels like a better prostate position than the other.
