Q: I am a married lady and I find masturbation more satisfying than love making with my husband. Is this normal?

A:Masturbation among females is extremely common. Many women masturbate even after marriage. Experts believe that this is because a woman knows her body better than anyone else and can satisfy herself better. Though after marriage, most of their sexual needs are satisfied, some women still feel the need to masturbate, and this is very normal. If you think that your husband is unable to satisfy you, you could try talking to him. A frank discussion with the partner about his/her needs usually goes a long way in resolving sexual issues. If this helps, good; if it does not, you can continue to masturbate without any feeling of guilt or apprehension.
