Face it, a lot of people masturbate even if they don’t talk about it. Any gender any age it doesn’t matter but it is common!

Masturbating helps most people relax and masturbating is an excellent way to get to know your body better. You may want to relieve sexual tension if you are single or your partner is absent. However, most people masturbate because well it feels great!


2. Reduces Stress

Research shows that masturbation isn’t bad for you at all. Regular masturbation can actually help reduce stress and sexual tension because once your body orgasms, it releases endorphins that make you feel good and block pain. These good feelings accompany an orgasm whether you’re with your sex partner or by yourself.

3. Help You Sleep Better

Masturbating helps you sleep better after you’ve had an orgasm because you feel calm and relaxed after the fact. Since you are now satisfied you will sleep like a baby!


4. Improves Your Self-Esteem and Body Image

Masturbation should be a part of your self-care routine because of all the physical health benefits. A person who masturbates on a regular basis will have a positive impact on their perception with their own body and understand their own body better. So please masturbate, it’s good for you!

5. Improves Sexual Problems

Masturbation plays a big role in helping men with erectile dysfunction and can help women also that have mental and emotional issues when it comes to sex. If you’re able to perform sexually during masturbation it can help you feel more confident that you can get an erection during intercourse or overcome your emotional fears!


6. For Women, It Relieves Menstrual Cramps and Muscle Tension

If a woman masturbates, the intensity and strength of an orgasm can help relieve menstrual cramps. Also, your pain tolerance goes up while you are having an orgasm and masturbation during your period pains will help increase blood flow so your period pains will disappear during your one-on-one time.

7. Physically Strengthens Muscle Tone in Pelvic and Anal Area

A woman that masturbates is getting stronger in her pelvic and anal area because masturbation helps a woman have a stronger pelvic floor, which can lead to better sex and reduce the chances of urinary leakage.
