These hormones are very beneficial for maintaining mental health as they improve clarity, focus, and even the ability to endure stress and pain. As you can see, masturbation is very good for your mental space.

2. Masturbation helps you to know your turn-ons

Regular masturbation is like sex practice that you do on your own. The more you do it, the better you are at knowing what turns you on.

In this way, you get to learn what does work and doesn’t work for you. After all, every woman’s body is different, so what feels really good to your friend may not hold true for you.

Plus, it is always better to practice on your own before you get into real sex with someone else. This helps build confidence and satisfaction, too.

You must release the old notion that a woman can only be pleasured in the presence of a man, okay? A woman should always know her turn-ons better than anybody else.

When you are clear as to what you like, you can teach your partner to do the right thing. This makes you sexier in his eyes, too.

3. Regular masturbation increases the chances of orgasm

Having sex with a partner every day would be taxing, but at the same time, you need regular sex to improve your chances of getting an orgasm.

So, the next best thing you could do is masturbate regularly to keep your engines going. Regular masturbation has been proven to increase the likelihood of female orgasms. The reason is libido itself.

The more you masturbate on the regular, the healthier and more stable your sex hormones get, according to an article titled “Advantages and Disadvantages of Masturbation.”

The Lybate website publication further states that these factors enhance your confidence and relaxation during intimacy, which contributes to orgasming naturally.

Orgasm seems like a complex achievement, but essentially, you just need to have a healthy libido and feel good when you are in the middle of the act.

As already mentioned, regular masturbation can help with the production of a plethora of sex hormones. On top of that, your increased confidence can also help you enjoy sex more.

After all, orgasm is all about enjoyment, relaxation and a sense of release.

4. Masturbation helps to improve your mood

Given the fact that masturbation (and the orgasm itself) helps your body to produce feel-good hormones, the solo play offers benefits that involve mood regulation.

Regular masturbation can really be beneficial when it comes to regulating your mood swings, especially if you are experiencing PMS.

When you orgasm, your body releases a lot of hormones that are known to deliver a surge of good feelings. On top of that, some hormones also help you to endure pain much better.

With that said, you will be a lot harder to annoy. The famed feel-good hormones are typically these four: endorphins, serotonin, dopamine, and oxytocin.

Endorphins are especially beneficial for helping you endure pain and stress at work. Meanwhile, oxytocin is the hormone that helps you sleep better at night. That’s why you often feel sleepy after a sex session.

With that, you can consider regular masturbation a part of your beauty sleep, too.

5. Masturbation is quite literally the safest sex

After everything is said and done, you can be sure that masturbation is the safest form of sex. It is still sexual conduct but you are doing it all on your own.

This reduces the risks of sexually transmitted diseases or unwanted pregnancy to practically zero. With that said, you should let go of the idea that masturbation is shameful.

Your body wants pleasure and what makes it feel good. Masturbation is just one way you can fulfil such a biological need.

Plus, when you really think about it, it's better to pleasure yourself sexually than to get into dangerous liaisons with men whom you can't fully trust.

Yet masturbation has a way of warding off infections. It helps to prevent cervical infection and relieves urinary tract infections, through “tenting” or pushing out the cervical opening, thus preventing infection from accessing the area.

According to a publication on the Women’s Health Network, self-indulgence also helps to ward off chronic diseases such as cardio vascular conditions, and diabetes.

So, even if you aren't in a committed relationship with someone who respect and adores you wholeheartedly, you can still enjoy the benefits of sex and orgasm by going about it your own way! Win-win.

To conclude, the health benefits of masturbation are usually overlooked when people start focusing more on their side effects. However, we know that knowing these five health benefits of female masturbation can easily change people's minds.
