Read the Catechism of the Catholic Church:
2352 By masturbation is to be understood the deliberate stimulation of the genital organs in order to derive sexual pleasure. "Both the Magisterium of the Church, in the course of a constant tradition, and the moral sense of the faithful have been in no doubt and have firmly maintained that masturbation is an intrinsically and gravely disordered action." "The deliberate use of the sexual faculty, for whatever reason, outside of marriage is essentially contrary to its purpose." For here sexual pleasure is sought outside of "the sexual relationship which is demanded by the moral order and in which the total meaning of mutual self-giving and human procreation in the context of true love is achieved."

Judeo-Christian tradition has taught for thousands of years:
1. Single people should be celibate.
2. Married people should be faithful to each other (adultery is wrong).
The Catholic Church recognizes the power of sex when it teaches, "Sexuality affects all aspects of the human person in the unity of his body and soul."
Chastity means the successful integration of sexuality within the person. A chaste person's body and spirit lives in unity and opposes any behavior that would impair that unity.
Masturbation is contrary to the human dignity of the person and anyone about whom the person has lustful thoughts, and the dignity of human sexuality.
With love in Christ.

Because Catholics are the most uptight, self-important group there is. The problem I have with all so-called "Christians" is their obsession with what everyone else is doing. If you want to choke the chicken once in a while why should I or anyone else care? Live and let live. Too bad "Christians", who claim to believe in the Bible, conveniently forget the part that says "judge not, lest ye be judged."

Yes. The Church describes masturbation as "an intrinsically and gravely disordered action", and teaches that "the deliberate use of the sexual faculty, for whatever reason, outside of marriage is essentially contrary to its purpose". (Catechism of the Catholic Church, section 2352)

Ok, the Bible says to not "spill your seed". Since you are obviously a woman, I don't think that applies, do you? It was all about populating the earth. Are you Catholic? I don't think so, so I am curious as to why you asked the question?

Religion has no place for personal hygine, so you have ask your OB_GYN, or your pediatrician, because you are still a child and need to find some hormones to grow up. Good luck, there are many such hormones, but please be careful because some of them have side effects. Go to your pediatrician and let her sort it out.

The thing with the Catholic religion is you can go to confession, get it cleared off your record for a few Hail Mary's and stations at the cross.
Protestants don't get that luxury.

If you are not going to stop, what difference does the answer to your question even make?

Yes it is a mortal sin. A mortal sin is a sin that leads to death.

Masturbate?
Why that is nothing compared to what they condone, behind the Choir Room.
Pierre went to "Confession" and admitted to the priest that he had engaged in oral sex.
The Priest said, "I am new at this business. I don't know what penance to give you for that sin. Wait here and I will ask my supervisor.
The new Priest went into his Supervisor's office and asked, "What do you usually give for oral sex?"
The Senior Priest replied, "About fifty dollars”.
