I'm 15 and I masturbate a lot, I like to play around with my clitoris and finger myself. I masturbate for like 2-3 times a day and I feel so guilty! I think of my boyfriend a lot when I do it, I try to control myself but I can't help it Sad is it normal?

It is not abnormal, but if you feel guilty about it, it is obviously hurting you. Some women masturbate a lot, some do not at all. As long as you do it in a healthy way, it is ok.

Masturbation is natural and healthy for you. At your age it gives you the safest possible way to deal with your sexual urges. If it interferes with your daily routine however, you should cut back on the number of times you do it.

If you look around you, most women you see masturbate. your mom, sisters, aunts, teachers, friends, girls at school, women you see in shops and on the street. Even babies in their mothers wombs have been seen masturbating on ultrasounds. So if you feel guilty, deal with it. Find out why you feel guilty, and then just stop feeling guilty. Masturbation is a private thing, but it is not something to feel guilty about, or be ashamed about.

Take care!

You don't give any clues about why you feel guilty about masturbating...
Do you feel guilty because you masturbate or because you do it so much or because you have a boyfriend and feel you shouldn't need to masturbate at all while you are in a relationship???

Masturbating for relief is quite normal and helps keep the mind clear, is an aid to sleep sometimes and will fill an occasional hour on a rainy bank holiday but is likely to have some repercussions or consequences if you make masturbation your hobby...

I suggest you fill your head and your time with some proper hobbies and interests. Eventually your current habit will fade...
