Tummy pain after masturbation
Hello! Is it normal for my lower tummy to hurt after I masturbate? I have not been involved intimately with no one and I never use anything to pleasure myself with but recently, it always hurts after I do it.. please help! I am worried that maybe somehow I ruined my body..

Re: Tummy pain after masturbation
Welcome to the boards, paperflowers.
If you're not doing anything that hurts while you're doing it, it's very unlikely that you're doing anything that's bad for your body. I'm very sure that you haven't ruined your body
When it hurts, is it anything like the kinds of aches you might get after you've been really active and doing physically hard work? Sometimes, during masturbation or other kinds of sex, we can hold a lot of tension in some parts of our bodies. When we're tense, our muscles are doing a lot of work, maybe work that they're not used to. So, you might be feeling some muscular aches or soreness from tension.

Thank you!
No, it's a different kind of pain.. I am worried that it might be my ovaries that hurt..

Re: Tummy pain after masturbation
There's no reason why your ovaries would hurt because of masturbation. Ovaries are internal organs, and things that you do on the outside of your body can't affect them. Exactly as in the same way that rubbing your lips or nose won't hurt your lungs
It sounds like you might like some information on your reproductive organs and genitals, or on masturbation. We have lots on the site - would you like some links to any of that?

Re: Tummy pain after masturbation
I understand.. I was verry worried that maybe it did something to me inside the tummy ;-; I hope that everything is okay.. but its very uncomfortable after I finish and it starts to hurt that way.
Yes, yes please I would like some links on that!

Re: Tummy pain after masturbation
Is this pain happening after masturbation with orgasm, without orgasm, or both?

Re: Tummy pain after masturbation
Okay.
Then what is most likely, if this is the only time that is happening, is that the uterine contractions that are often part of orgasm are what is causing or triggering the pain.
If you have had any basic GYN healthcare lately, like a basic exam, and no one had any cause for concern, then you may just be sensitive to those muscular contractions, and over time, you will probably become less so. If you have not had that kind of sexual healthcare lately, you might just want to do that so you can be sure this is not about pain from an underlying condition, like a uterine or ovarian cyst, for instance, being triggered by this.

Re: Tummy pain after masturbation
I don't want to go to a gyn... I am embarrassed to do that.. at least not yet, maybe when I get older, isn't there any other way to be able to know if I had a cyst? Like an ecography or something...

Re: Tummy pain after masturbation
It's likely that if you went to a general practitioner for something that turned out to be an ovarian cyst they'd refer you to a gynecologist anyway, but you could start with your general practitioner if you like.
