Is it bad to touch yourself "down there", you know, in your privates? Can you hurt yourself or give yourself infections or anything if you do it a lot?
I only started doing it a few months ago, but I'm worried that I shouldn't be touching myself there, that I'm doing something wrong. But it feels so good, I can't stop doing it!

It's ok to do that! =) It's called masterbation and it's really common..a lot of people just don't talk about it. Just make sure before and after you touch yourself to wash your hands or use Purel. Introducing germs down there will cause infection. Just remember to clean your hands first and you won't have a problem.

You go girl! That is natural pleasure. Doctors even recommend that you teach your children it is okay in the privacy of your home. Just be sure that you clean well with soap and water and if you get irritated avoid touching yourself for a few days so you don't get BV, bladder infections, and yeast infections. You aren't going to hurt yourself if you just don't get too agressive - look what down there has tolerated already. If you are concerned still, remember that being honest with your GYN is important. Ask!

It's perfectly fine. My ex girlfriend back in the day started playing with herself when she was 13 and she still does it as an adult now I'm sure and everything is fine. It's a normal thing to do. You won't hurt yourself or get an infection.

How can something that feels so good be bad for you? You guessed it. It isn't bad for you, it's normal. Everyone does it. Those that say they don't do it, are lying. The only drawback is that you may start to get sore. If that happens, take a break for a couple of days.

No No girl, certainly not bad !, and don't let anyone tell you otherwise. It's a natural and healthy way to get to know your body. As others have said, pay attention to hygiene of hands and any toys ( which may I add, can also be great fun in your discovery journey). So you go for it hun as much as you like.

I feel the same way you do I am 20 sometimes I touch myself and was never sure how to feel about it sometimes I feel guilty sometimes I don't I guess it's natural you are not sleeping around you are hurting no one and it's safe.

No, its not bad I am sure everyone does it once in awhile. Pretty sure that you can't hurt yourself... Make sure your hands are clean. Try not to put any food products up there. That might give you a yeast infection.

It's your body girl to touch when and where you like.
