I've always for as long as I can remember been masturbating in the shower and as I've gotten older experimented alot more is their any reason that I should cut down. I mean is it bad for your body to masturbate like daily? I've heard that having sex at a young age can cause cervical cancer does that apply to masturbation also?

Sex at a young age is a bad idea but not for health reasons....I won't preach to you about that here.
As for masturbation....do it to your hearts content. It's healthy and perfectly normal unless you are doing it in ways that hurt your body. As long as it's not an obsession with you, once or twice a day is not an obsession.
Cervical cancer is not caused by the act of intercourse, it is caused by the papaloma virus also known as genital warts. All warts are caused by a virus. Men who have genital warts carry them on the flesh of their genitals. During intercourse, the virus transfers to the cervix. This virus grows in the cervix and eventually can manifest cancer. If you are sexually active, it is important that you have regular pap smear test for the papoloma virus. THAT IS WHY YOU ALWAYS USE A CONDOM EVEN IF YOU USE THE PILL. The chances that you will develop cervical cancer from the papoloma virus decrease the older you are, that may be what you heard in the past.

It's fine and very healthy. There's nothing to worry about just make sure your hands are clean! Also, having sex at a young age doesn't cause cervical cancer. It's just that HPV (the virus that can cause cervical cancer) is spread more easily when your young and not fully developed.

No, the body needs to pardon the term get off, It's healthy, and great for the immune system, this is a proven fact. The only people who are going to tell you that masturbating is wrong is the bible thumpers and that's only because they can't think for them self's. so in other words It's a lot safer then having sex and good for you!

It's not bad for your body to masturbate on a regular basis (male or female). However if/when you and your partner try to have children the guy should cut down because frequent masturbation decreases his overall sperm count.

No there are no risks involved except that maybe you will want to do it all the time and that can get frustrating and increase your chances of getting caught in the act!!!

No risks.
Everyone masturbates when they're young.
