Masturbation is fun and a great way of figuring out what you are looking for sexually before finding a partner. It can also help you fall asleep, as masturbating before bed can lead to orgasms and oxytocin, which promote sleep.

Hands

The hands are a great place to start when you’re looking to masturbate. It’s non-intimidating, there’s no cost associated with it and — most importantly — it can be used regardless of what type of genitals you have. Many of the tools you can use to handle your hands include a variety of textures and vibrations, meaning that it’s up to you to figure out what kind of sensations you enjoy.

You can also use your own genitals for masturbation. You can explore inside your clitoris or the shape and texture in the vagina. Or, you can try masturbating on the lips to get extra orgasm. You can also use different tools from the classic sleeve, to a toy snake or dildo.

If you’re new to masturbating with your hands, it might be easier to work with a toy that allows you to grip it firmly in one hand. You can then use your other arm to control the toy’s motion and experiment with various speeds and positions. This will also allow you to determine how much pressure you need or how fast you have to move in order to achieve orgasm.

A stroker is a type massage wand that is great for male masturbation. It is shaped like a stick selfie and works by having the shaft rest against the backside of your throbbing member. The inner surface of the penises is ribbed for climax-inducing pleasure. The stroker is water-friendly and offers up to four patterns at three speed settings.

AutoBlow AI Ultra, another great hand-held masturbator. It has a sexy black design that looks like a thermos, and it features a peek-a-boo window so you can see what’s happening inside during use. The sleek and lightweight design makes it easy to use, and its simple interface means you don’t have to use an app to regulate sensations.

Toys

Some masturbation tools such as the Magic Wand Rechargeable and the Unbound Bender Internal Vibrator have many different speeds, patterns, and vibrations that can help you find what feels best. These toys are discreet and easy to control. Other sex toys are designed to stimulate specific areas like the clitoris and anus. They can also relieve sexual dysfunction or discomfort caused by medication, health conditions, aging, menopause and aging. Some sex toy are designed for use with a partner and can even be used as a masturbation device, while others can be enjoyed alone.

If you want to find a masturbation tool that provides similar sensations as penetrative sex then try a sleeve. They are both made from soft silicone and look like the anus or mouth. A stroker’s flexible tip can be bent to tighten and used to explore erogenous zones on your body. Sleeves are smooth on one side, and rough on the opposite. These can be used alone or with a lubricant for added pleasure.

You can use many household items as masturbation instruments, such as your toothbrush, your comb, or the handle of your plunger. Just make sure to thoroughly clean any household item you plan to stick in your penis or vagina before and after using it. Avoid using sharp objects as they can cause serious injury if inserted into your anus or vulva.

If you are looking for something discreet and durable, a sex toy like the Stronic Surf External Vibrator, or the Stronic Surf Petite is a great option. These vibrators are slim and sleek, making them easy to conceal. They also come with a pouch that can be used for storage. These vibrators are rechargeable, and they have 10 speeds and patterns to stimulate both the internal and external genital areas. Combine them with a water based lubricant to get even more pleasure.

There are also a number of disposable masturbation sleeves on the market, such as Tenga’s Sleeves, which are sold in different shapes and lengths. These are ideal if you don’t want to spend a lot of money or have limited space in your purse.

Vibrators

There are many household items that you can use if you want to have your own orgasms but don’t happen to have a wand, or any other sex toys. Use a plastic bottle to create a dildo. Just make sure to use lots of lubricant, and a Condom. You can also try a rubber duck, but not the toy type.

There are a number of vibrators which can be used to masturbate. Some vibrators are wands with large heads that cover a larger surface area and provide powerful vibrations. Some are bullet-shaped like the Mantric Rechargeable Vibrator ($50 Lovehoney) or finger vibrators such as the Dame Fin. The best thing to do when choosing a new toy is to start by thinking about what sensations you enjoy in partnered and solo sex. There are always many reviews online to help you find the right product for you.

It’s important to remember that, no matter what you use for masturbation – whether it’s an electric shaver or a toothbrush – it’s always a good idea afterward to wash it with soap and warm water. Planned Parenthood says that this will reduce the risk of STIs caused by germs on your device or any other parts of your body it comes into contact with.

If you’re an adult, chances are there isn’t a sex toy store in your neighborhood. This can be a problem for people who live with parents and other guardians that don’t want them to buy something that is marketed as a sex toy. There are online retailers of sex toys that cater to people who are worried about their home environment. They offer discreet shipping methods that won’t raise eyebrows. There are also similar options for teens. Some companies will send you a free sample of a sex toy for your trouble. They are small, discrete and easy to store in a purse or a backpack.

Lube

If used correctly, lubricant can make masturbation safer and more enjoyable. It can be very helpful if your vaginal skin is dry. This can happen for many reasons, including menopause or stress. Lubricant can also be used for anal stimulation and to reduce friction. Regardless of your lubrication preferences, it’s a good idea to have a bottle on hand and use it liberally during masturbation or with sex toys.

You can choose between silicone-based lubricants, which provide a longer-lasting lubrication and a smoother feeling, or water-based ones which are more gentle. Water-based lubricants are safe to use on any type of toy including silicone or latex toys. They can also be used to make sexual encounters more comfortable by reducing friction.

There are also oil-based lubricants that offer a moisturizing feeling. They aren’t as smooth or long-lasting as other lubes but are a great option for those who prefer a natural feel. They can also work great with anal play and can be used on any part of the body.

It’s important to keep in mind that while lubes can be great for masturbation, they don’t protect you from pregnancy or sexually transmitted disease. It’s important to practice safe sex.
