Question: I’m seventeen and for the past four years I’ve been consistently masturbating. Sometimes it’s three times a day and sometimes once a day. Are there side effects of masturbating that could affect my long-term health? Also, is it wrong to be addicted to masturbating?
Answer: Masturbating is perfectly healthy and safe, and as long as you have the time, then doing it every day isn’t a problem.
As a gURL named Jessica said in the comments, “Masturbation in females is normal. I do it all the time sometimes twice a day.”
Counselors only consider masturbating (or any other habit, like going online, cleaning or talking on the phone) a problem if it gets in the way of other aspects of you life. But if you aren’t skipping school or avoiding your friends because you are too busy masturbating, then there is nothing to worry about.
Here’s some things masturbation won’t do:
Here’s some things it will do:
- Help you learn about your sexuality
- Teach you about orgasm
- Help reduce stress
So no, masturbation will not affect your long-term health, and doing it regularly is just fine.

I started to “feel” myself at the age of 6. My mom never found out so I kept doing it. Now i am 14 and i figured out i have a hole in my hymen that is big enough for about 2 fingers to fit in. I personally like 1 finger because with the others i can stimulate my clit. I sometimes want to use something else to stick up there like a dildo or something…. If i broke my hymen with a dildo or another toy would i still be a virgin? Please reply!!!
@randomgurl1029 : Yes U Did break it .. I m sorry to say u r not virgin .. When u push something (Dick or Dildo) inside ur vagina for 1st time and u c the blood , ITS DONE !
But there was no blood sorry to say but i am still a virgin. Scientific research says (i looked it up) that it can only be a penis that can take away your virginity. No fingers, dildo, virbrator or anything :3 its alllllll good
i use a shaver to masturbate and a toothbrush
its a great way of masturabting for free and not wearing yourslef out
i love it i masturbate everyday

IF YOU KNOW YOU LOVE HIM AND HE LOVE YOU THE SAME WAY YOU DO AND YOU ARE IN YOUR 20'S IM SAVING IT… THERE ARE PLENTY OF WAYS TO PLEASE YOURSELF WITHOUT RISKING YOURSELF oh AND IM A GIRL IM A FEMALE
i have a question which i was little hesitated to ask about…ummm… while masturbating, i remember once i bleeded and i haven't ever had sex yet..i heard that when this happens it means the hyme broke… how could i prove im still virgin?
i've been doin it since i was uber young, and I don't care! It's a great way to learn more about urself, and it's a pick-me-up like when you're stressed or something.
what if you mastrabated and bleed and its not my time of the month so i got scared and still am? help!
genuinejune: No, you can't lose your virginity to an object. There has to be another person involved.
wtf … i tried it but i have never had a orgasim … like wtf?
i LOVE to masturbate it gets rid of my stress and i can get to sleep alot easier. if you want to make feel great rub your clitorous fast or use a vibrating toothbrush it feels soooooooooooooooooooooooooooo good.i think i started wheni was like 8years old.
ive been masturbating since i was really young like 12. . . i used to be ashamed but now i love it!! i used a electric toothbrush sometimes but alot i use the corner of a firm pillowand i hump it good!! dont be ashamed guys
I do it a lot too. It really is a "pick-me-up." My boyfriend is not ready for sex even though I am.
omg i have mastibated before jus watching something on youtube to know how to mastribate! haha! it really works and i luv it!
how do you hav phone sex?
if your trying to masturbate:
Rub your clitoris or use the head of an electric toothbrush to simulate it
you can also put your finger in your vagina and about an inch up their is your g-spot. if you rub or push on that
remember to do what is most comfortable for you
I think I've been masturbating since I was around 8 (half my life) – except I didn't know that's what it was until I was about 14! I had heard of it, I just didn't know that that's what I was doing. It's become a natural treat for me these days.
how do i masterbate im 13 and confused i try but nothing helps,
if i use a vibrator or dildo for masturbation does that mean im not a virgin anymore?
Technically you are still a virgin. You are not a virgin once a penis has entered your vagina. If your Hymen was torn artificially other than a penis, you are still a virgin.
it is perfectly normal & it feels really good.
i would be so stressed out if i couldnt do this. =]
i actually started mastrabautin real young, i was about 5 6ish never knew wat it was , but it felt good, and my mom said it was "wrong" but today im 16yrs old and i still do it , i dont want to loose my virginity now , so itrs a great alternitive, such as cybering
