We all know that masturbation is pleasurable, but is it good for you?  Actually, yes.  Masturbation has been found to have a range of health benefits that are so excellent your doctor will give this activity a thumbs up.

For men, masturbation (and frequent ejaculation) reduces the risk of prostate cancer.  For women, masturbation has been known to improve blood flow, which helps prevent both cervical and urinary tract infections.  For both men and women, a little self-love also helps improve immune function by increasing cortisol levels.  Sounds pretty great, right?

If you’re not already on board, may we suggest a little lube to help you with this healthy habit?  Not only does personal lubricant feel good, it helps reduce friction and makes it easier to orgasm.  Sign us up.
