As a matter of fact, there are many perks of Mastu *rbate. It helps relieve stress, helps you understand what your body likes, and helps you find pleasure when you don’t have a man. But how exactly does your body react to Mastu *rbate?
Here are three main things that happen when you masturbate.
You Simply get aroused
Arousal in the case of masturbation isn’t substantively different from arousal in sex with partners; your body reacts in the same way. The most obvious reaction to arousal is the vag ina lubricating and cli toris hardening with blood.
The brain seemed to react differently to the solo adventure. In masturbation, the female brain’s prefrontal cortex, an area of the brain heavily associated with creative thinking (you can actually zap it with electricity to spark some imagination), turns up the volume. In the case of partner sex, it seemed that certain elements of it actually turned off, specifically the part that seems responsible for self-control.
Interestingly, female Mastu *rbate also seems to have the benefit of lowering the possibility of vag inal and urinary tract infections through clearing out accumulated bacteria in the vag ina through a process called “tenting,” a function during arousal wherein the uterus is drawn upwards and the cervix withdraws a bit. The process of tenting stretches and pulls the mucous within the cervix, allowing for a rise in acidity in the cervical fluid. This increases ‘friendly’ bacteria and allows more fluid to move from the cervix into the vag ina. When ‘old’ fluid moves from the tented cervix, it not only lubricates the vag ina, but also flushes out unfriendly organisms that can cause infections.
