I'm an 18 year old girl and have been masturbating since I can remember, sounds bad I know! I tend to do it about 4 times a week, and always penetrate myself with slim objects, such as an empty spray bottle (because I can't get hold of a dildo) I always make sure it is clean etc.
Is there any way that this could be harming me??
Thanks, would be so greatfull for any answers :O
Dear Han
Its not bad that you "have been masturbating since I can remember" Many masturbate from an early age.
"always penetrate myself with slim objects ... Is there any way that this could be harming me?" This can be thought of in two ways:
- Physically
- Psychologically
Physically, you are likely to have ruptured your hymen. That may or may not be a problem for you. Also you have to be careful what you use does not break. Otherwise, provided the object is small and smooth, and you are careful, there should be no problem regarding physical damage (no different from a dildo really).
Psychologically, particularly if you have been penetrating with an object "since I can remember", you may get to rely on it and it could have a negative impact on a future marriage. Also, as you say "sounds bad I know!", there may be guilt feelings attached to it. This can also possibly have an impact on personal relationships. You don't say what particularly let you to using object penetration, but the reason for so doing might have an effect. Getting used to fingers or a penis might be a transitional issue. I assume you use clitoral (and breast) stimulation also.
What you are doing has been done over the years by many girls. I have just highlighted some possible impacts for you to consider as you asked.
Hope this helps.
