Masturbation

Partaking in masturbation can lead to an improved sexual well-being as it allows you to explore your body and sexual preferences. Not only does masturbation allow you to define your sexual satisfactions, but it also produces health benefits. Masturbation can reduce stress and tension, help you reach orgasm without sex risks and has been proven to enhance confidence and self-esteem.
