Women seem much more reluctant than men to talk about masturbation. It is such a personal thing, but that doesn’t mean that women aren’t doing it. At least we hope everybody is doing it.
Why? Because there are quite several benefits to self-pleasuring. Here are a few of them:
1. Guaranteed orgasm. If you do it yourself, your chances are greater of being able to climax. And that just feels good. No worries about taking too long either.
2. Stress relief and mood changer. Masturbating and orgasms cause the body to release endorphins, the natural chemicals that give us a sense of well-being and can make us feel elated. Don’t you feel better after a good orgasm?
3. Keeps you in touch with yourself. Masturbation helps you know your body and is a way for you to learn what feels good during sex. When you are with a partner, you can then use this information to let them know what works for you.
4. PMS relief. Masturbation, and the subsequent orgasm, increases blood flow to the pelvic region — which can help alleviate not only pre-menstrual symptoms but also cramps.
5. Insomnia aid. Can’t sleep? Help is just a vibrator or a few fingers away. Just like a good romp in the sack with your partner can help you sleep more soundly, so can a self-induced orgasm.
