A member asked:
Do women catch infections like uti by masturbating her clitoris and/or vagina?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Some basics: The female drainage tube from the bladder to the outside is short. Anything that traumatizes the pee hole (sex/masturbation) can increase the possibilities that germs may enter the pee hole, climb up the pee tube & trigger a bladder infection. Emptying their bladder after sex or masturbation can reduce the risk. Some experience this more than others.
