gas during sex

I had a complete hysterectomy a year ago. (no ovaries left) During masturbation (I have been alone for 3 1/2 yearsand waiting on my husband to return home.) at the point of climax gas is released.  It's not like passing gas though, it's more like air that is built up. Is this going to happen during actual sex? The sound bothers me. Is this because there is nothing there now? I sound totally ignorant I know. But I'm sure there has to be atleast 1 other person on the planet with this question. I've heard the awful comment that men make about "nothing left but the box it came in".  Is there anything I can do?

would this be gas coming from the vagina? If so, then that might have to do with the pelvic muscles contracting during orgasm, and filling the vagina with air, which then gets released. If you are really worried about this, practice orgasm with a Tampon  or artificial penis in the vagina and see if this also occurs. If your husband missed you and cant wait to have sex, this will be the furthest thing from his mind.
