Instead of counting sheep, try counting orgasms. When you orgasm, your body releases prolactin<\/a>, a relaxation hormone, and serotonin, a happiness hormone. While it hasn't been thoroughly studied, many women have found masturbating helps them relieve tension and sleep better, says Lauren Streicher, MD, author of Sex Rx: Hormones, Health and Your Best Sex Ever<\/a><\/em>.<\/p>\n

For the best effect, Morse suggests creating a calm, nurturing environment before you get busy. \u201cJust turn off your phone, go into your room for 10 minutes, start to breathe and touch your body,\u201d she says. \u201cBy doing this, you\u2019re taking care of yourself, experiencing pleasure, and getting in touch with your body\u2014all of which give you a sense of well-being."<\/p>\n

Having sex on your period<\/a> might be a little messy, but solo sessions are easy\u2014plus, they pack some natural pain-relieving benefits. "When you have an orgasm, the uterus contracts, which causes the blood to come out faster and allow you to be less crampy," explains Dr. Streicher.<\/p>\n

For some women, however, orgasms might intensify the tension, Morse says. \u201cIt\u2019s just a matter of testing it out the technique to see if it works for you.\u201d<\/p>\n

It can intensify your orgasms<\/h3>\n

\u201cMasturbating does expand your orgasmic potential,\u201d says Morse. \u201cSo for women who struggle to have orgasms with or without their partner, it teaches you how to have an orgasm and increases your own sexual awareness.\u201d<\/p>\n

The key is taking time to get to know your body and what really turns you on. And while many women may try it out to no avail, it\u2019s important not to give up on finding your bliss. \u201cThe reality is it could take months to figure out how to have a G-spot orgasm, a clitoral orgasm, or even a blended orgasm.\u201d<\/p>\n

It might make you more confident<\/strong><\/h3>\n

\u201cWhen you feel in control of your body and sexuality, it gives you more self-esteem in the bedroom,\u201d says Morse. And that confidence doesn\u2019t just stay between the sheets\u2014it can actually carry over into all aspects of your life. \u201cA lot of women aren\u2019t satisfied with the way their bodies look, but when we\u2019re in control and connected to our bodies through masturbating, we learn a lot about who we are,\u201d she says. \u201cThat can cultivate more positive feelings around our bodies and help us feel more confident inside and out.\u201d It\u2019s simple really: you'll come, you'll see, you'll conquer.<\/p>\n

It feels really good<\/strong><\/h3>\n

At the end of the day, Dr. Streicher says the primary benefit to masturbation is simple: It feels good. But since the topic is still generally kept on the hush, many women don't know how to do it, she points out.<\/p>\n

If you're still feeling a little lost when it comes to what to do down there, just remember there's no universal technique. So to get started, Morse recommends experimenting with different types of touch. "Don't just go straight for the clitoris," she advises. "Start slow and and gently explore surrounding areas like the labia with a light, two-finger touch." Plus, applying a couple drops of lube are a great option to get things going, Morse suggests. All it takes is a bit of body exploration, and you'll be a master of masturbation in no time.<\/p>\n
