A member asked:

My vagina is throbbing. i don't know if it has to do with my recent start of masturbation or what.

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Throbbing: I could be swelling and throbbing from the friction of masturbation, but it could also be a yeast infection. Try an ice pack and see if it helps.

Dr Juchau and another doctor agreed
