The Benefits of Female Masturbation

Research indicates as many as 34% of all women have never masturbated. Historically female masturbation has gotten a bad reputation thanks to a variety of social forces that shape cultural ideals about sex. In Victorian times, a woman caught masturbating might have been sent to a doctor to be treated for nymphomania with a treatment of administering sulfuric acid to the clitoris! Some religions forbid masturbation as sinful and society has been given the message that masturbation is a dirty experience to be avoided by nice girls.

Many women discover orgasm through masturbation and may not be able to achieve orgasm in partnered sex. Masturbation can be a wonderful addition to your sex life even if you are one of the few who orgasm easily in partnered sex. Masturbation is safe, free, convenient and satisfying.

Female masturbation has many great benefits that can improve a womans life and her health. Female masturbation relieves stress and tension and increases overall happiness. Having an orgasm can strengthen the immune system, the cardiovascular system and the endocrine system. Female masturbation increases blood flow to the body, bringing fresh oxygen to the organs while removing toxins. Women who masturbate and are sexually active also appear to live longer.

Many menstruating women say that female masturbation relieves cramping. Regular sexual activity boosts the production of the vital hormones estrogen and testosterone that fortify bones and muscles. Orgasm reduces bad LDL cholesterol, helps maintain vaginal elasticity and lubricating ability, and also helps maintain your bodys level of oxytocin. Oxytocin is a hormone related to social skills and personality.

Female masturbation lets you enjoy as much pleasure as you want as often as you want. You dont have to worry about STDs or pregnancy from masturbating. Masturbation can easily fit into any schedule and you dont have to depend on another person being there. Female masturbation lets you explore your fantasies without judgment. No one knows what is going through your mind but you, and no one can judge you for things they dont see!

Female masturbation also can produce deeper and more satisfying orgasms than partnered sex for many women. Masturbation even acts as a terrific cure for insomnia and it is a great way to improve partnered sex because it helps you discover what really excites you. Once you know from masturbating what excites you and what doesnt, you can inform your partner, and the two of you can try the great new things together.
