Masturbation MASTURBATION Curriculum for Excellence Links to health and wellbeing outcomes for Relationships, Sexual Health and Parenthood I am aware of my growing body and I am learning the correct names for its different parts and how they work. HWB 0-47b HWB 1-47b I understand my own body's uniqueness, my developing sexuality, and that of others. HWB 3-47a HWB 4-47a Introduction Masturbation can seem a daunting subject to teach, but it is very important for young people to learn about appropriate touch. School provides an ideal learning environment for this, alongside an opportunity to work alongside parents to tackle this issue. If young people do not learn about masturbation and appropriate touch when they are teenagers, they are in danger of displaying inappropriate behaviour as an adult, often in public, which can lead to more serious repercussions. Staff may worry that teaching about masturbation can provoke a sudden obsession with genitalia, but this is usually a temporary reaction and one which can be successfully dealt with by one-to-one work through Social Stories. Having a policy on Managing Sexualised Behaviour may also be beneficial, outlining an approach to inappropriate touching in the classroom. TOUCHING OURSELVES You will need 2 body outlines/ Bodyboards (male and female). Recap on names of Parts Of The Body. Ask the students which are PRIVATE BODY parts (those covered by underwear- breasts, penis, vagina, anus, clitoris etc.) Tell the group ‘’these are Private Body Parts, not for everyone to touch and see. But sometimes people like to touch their own private body parts to make themselves feel nice and sexy. This is called Masturbation. This is OK, but it must be in a private place.’’ Using the Bodyboard/ outline, point to each private body part and say; ‘If you are in a Private place, is it OK to touch your own…penis? Vagina?’ etc Class to answer ‘Yes’ (or sign, or hold up symbol) Teacher says ‘Yes, it is OK if it feels nice and you are in a private place’’ Do the same exercise, but in a ‘Public place’. PUBLIC AND PRIVATE Do Public/Private exercise as above but with pictures to remind students of where Public and Private places are. Hold up pictures of public and private places Ask ‘Is it ok to touch yourself intimately or masturbate in the classroom? (Supermarket? School toilets? Your kitchen at home? Your own bedroom?) If working one-to-one have photos of student’s own bedroom etc. (need to check with parent if child has room on their own/ has private time alone/ needs to draw curtains etc if naked) Resources Pictures of public and private places available from o Picture Yourself CD / card set o Puberty and Sexuality pack p45,46 INFORMATION ABOUT MASTURBATION Use with pictures of male and female masturbation. When people are growing up their sex organs become more active. Many teenagers begin to have nice and exciting feeling about their own bodies Boys and girls, teenagers and grown-ups experience sexy feelings. Some people decide to masturbate because they like these feelings. Masturbation is touching or rubbing any part of the body’s sex organs because it feels good. When people masturbate they get a warm, tingling and excited feeling. This feeling gets stronger and stronger. A boy may ejaculate and have an orgasm when sperm comes out of his penis A girl will get an exciting feeling through her body and around her vulva- this is a girl’s orgasm. Masturbating cannot hurt anyone. Other things to remember are; Lots of people masturbate Women and girls can not get pregnant by masturbating People can not get any infections by masturbating A person normally masturbates by themselves. The only exception to this is if a person has a boyfriend of girlfriend and they want to do this to each other. It is important that you ask your boyfriend or girlfriend if they want to do this before you touch them.

While there are emotional and relational elements to female sexual function and response, female sexual dysfunction can occur secondary to medical problems and have an organic basis. This paper addresses anatomy and physiology of normal female sexual function as well as the pathophysiology of female sexual dysfunction. Although the female sexual response is inherently difficult to evaluate in the clinical setting, a variety of instruments have been developed for assessing subjective measures of sexual arousal and function. Objective measurements used in conjunction with the subjective assessment help diagnose potential physiologic/organic abnormal- ities. Therapeutic options for the treatment of female sexual dysfunction, including hormonal, and pharmacological, are also addressed.

  • The Mythical G-Spot: Past, Present and Future by Dr
    Global Journal of Medical research: E Gynecology and Obstetrics Volume 14 Issue 2 Version 1.0 Year 2014 Type: Double Blind Peer Reviewed International Research Journal Publisher: Global Journals Inc. (USA) Online ISSN: 2249-4618 & Print ISSN: 0975-5888 The Mythical G-Spot: Past, Present and Future By Dr. Franklin J. Espitia De La Hoz & Dra. Lilian Orozco Santiago Universidad Militar Nueva Granada, Colombia Summary- The so-called point Gräfenberg popularly known as "G-spot" corresponds to a vaginal area 1-2 cm wide, behind the pubis in intimate relationship with the anterior vaginal wall and around the urethra (complex clitoral) that when the woman is aroused becomes more sensitive than the rest of the vagina. Some women report that it is an erogenous area which, once stimulated, can lead to strong sexual arousal, intense orgasms and female ejaculation. Although the G-spot has been studied since the 40s, disagreement persists regarding the translation, localization and its existence as a distinct structure. Objective: Understand the operation and establish the anatomical points where the point G from embryology to adulthood. Methodology: A literature search in the electronic databases PubMed, Ovid, Elsevier, Interscience, EBSCO, Scopus, SciELO was performed. Results: descriptive articles and observational studies were reviewed which showed a significant number of patients. Conclusion: Sexual pleasure is a right we all have, and women must find a way to feel or experience orgasm as a possible experience of their sexuality, which necessitates effective stimulation.

  • ASCCP Clinical Practice Statement Evaluation of the Cervix in Patients with Abnormal Vaginal Bleeding Published: February 7, 2017
    ASCCP Clinical Practice Statement Evaluation of the Cervix in Patients with Abnormal Vaginal Bleeding Published: February 7, 2017 All women presenting with abnormal vaginal bleeding should receive evaluation of the cervix and vagina, which should include at minimum visual inspection (speculum exam) and palpation (bimanual exam). If cervical or vaginal lesions are noted, appropriate tissue sampling is recommended, which can include Pap testing in addition to biopsy with or without colposcopy. These recommendations concur with those of ACOG Practice Bulletin #128 and Committee Opinion #557.1,2 The purpose of this article is to remind clinicians that Pap testing, as a form of tissue sampling, can be an important part of the workup of abnormal bleeding, and can be performed even if the patient is not due for her next screening test if there is clinical concern for cancer. Due to confusion amongst clinicians that has come to our attention, we wish to highlight the distinction between recommendations for diagnosis of cervical abnormalities including cancer amongst women with abnormal bleeding and recommendations for screening for cervical cancer amongst asymptomatic women. Screening guidelines recommend Pap testing at 3 year intervals for women ages 21-29, and Pap and HPV co-testing at 5 year intervals between the ages of 30-65 (with continued Pap testing at 3 year intervals as an option). These evidence- based guidelines are designed to maximize the detection of pre-cancer and minimize colposcopies. In addition, clinical practice guidelines no longer support routine pelvic examinations for cancer screening in asymptomatic women as this has not been shown to prevent cancer deaths.3,4,5 Consequently, physicians now perform fewer pelvic exams.

  • Anatomy of Pelvic Floor Dysfunction
    Anatomy of Pelvic Floor Dysfunction Marlene M. Corton, MD KEYWORDS Pelvic floor Levator ani muscles Pelvic connective tissue Ureter Retropubic space Prevesical space NORMAL PELVIC ORGAN SUPPORT The main support of the uterus and vagina is provided by the interaction between the levator ani (LA) muscles (Fig. 1) and the connective tissue that attaches the cervix and vagina to the pelvic walls (Fig. 2).1 The relative contribution of the connective tissue and levator ani muscles to the normal support anatomy has been the subject of controversy for more than a century.2–5 Consequently, many inconsistencies in termi- nology are found in the literature describing pelvic floor muscles and connective tissue. The information presented in this article is based on a current review of the literature. LEVATOR ANI MUSCLE SUPPORT The LA muscles are the most important muscles in the pelvic floor and represent a crit- ical component of pelvic organ support (see Fig. 1). The normal levators maintain a constant state of contraction, thus providing an active floor that supports the weight of the abdominopelvic contents against the forces of intra-abdominal pressure.6 This action is thought to prevent constant or excessive strain on the pelvic ‘‘ligaments’’ and ‘‘fascia’’ (Fig. 3A). The normal resting contraction of the levators is maintained by the action of type I (slow twitch) fibers, which predominate in this muscle.7 This baseline activity of the levators keeps the urogenital hiatus (UGH) closed and draws the distal parts of the urethra, vagina, and rectum toward the pubic bones. Type II (fast twitch) muscle fibers allow for reflex muscle contraction elicited by sudden increases in abdominal pressure (Fig.

  • Anterior Rectocele
    Saint Mary’s Hospital Gynaecology Service - Warrell Unit Information for Patients Anterior Rectocele What is an anterior rectocele? An anterior rectocele is the name given to a pocket or bulge in the part of the bowel lying under the back wall of the vagina. It is a type of prolapse. Between the vagina and the rectum, there is a sheet of strong connective tissue which helps to support the vagina and rectum and stop one from bulging into the other. Weakness of this tissue allows the rectum to bulge forwards into the vagina during straining or having the bowels opened. This bulge is called an anterior rectocele. Some women have an anterior rectocele and are not bothered by it at all. For some women, it causes a bulge or lump in the vagina. Sometimes it can cause a sensation of needing to empty the bowels during intercourse. It can cause difficulty in getting a bowel movement to come out. Women may have a feeling that the stool is going forward into the vagina rather than coming out. They may need to put a finger into the vagina to help the bowels to empty and may have to return to the toilet several times because they are not able to fully empty the bowel all at once. How common is prolapse and anterior rectocele? Prolapse is very common. Most women who have had a baby will have small amounts of prolapse. Anterior rectoceles are also very common. About 10% of women (1 in 10) have prolapse that causes bothersome symptoms. What causes an anterior rectocele? We do not understand yet why some women get an anterior rectocele and others do not.

If you have any further questions or concerns, please contact our office prior to your procedure so that we may clarify any pertinent issues. Definition: Posterior repair is a surgical procedure to correct a rectocele. A rectocele occurs when the thin wall of tissue that separates the rectum from the vagina weakens, allowing the rectum to bulge into the back wall of the vagina. A posterior repair returns the rectum back into its normal position and strengthens the wall between the rectum and the vagina. A perineoplasty is the reconstruction of the opening of the vagina (introitus) and the area between the anus and the vagina (perineum). These procedures are performed completely through the vagina, no abdominal incisions are made. Procedure: After sedation from general anesthesia is achieved; the surgeon will begin by placing a catheter in the bladder to keep it empty during the procedure.

  • Vulvas and Vaginas
    Vulvas and Vaginas 2 An Introduction to: Vulvas and Vaginas What is a Vulva? The Vulva is the entire external female genitalia – inner and outer labia, clitoris, clitoral hood, mons, vestibule and urethral and vagina openings. This part of the anatomy gets called lots of funny names: vajayjay, muff, coochie, crotch, “down there,” and often it gets confused with the vagina – the stretchable passage that leads to the cervix and uterus and is involved in menstruation, intercourse, pregnancy and delivery. Because the vulva and vagina are hidden, they can seem mysterious, confusing and even shameful. Let’s eliminate the mystery. Your vulva and vagina can be the source of much pleasure and it is a good idea to get to know them and all their wonders. Don’t be shy! Get to know your body! Look at your Vulva! Stand or sit over a mirror and take a good look. Examining the Vulva is healthy; it gets you familiar and comfortable with your unique body and all its parts. Labia: The word labia means lips in Latin. The outer labia are two folds of skin and fatty tissue which are the colour of your skin or a bit darker. They are covered in pubic hair after puberty and surround the rest of the vulva. They can be large or small, short or long and, like breasts, can be two different sizes. They swell during arousal and are often very sensitive. The inner labia are also sensitive and swell during arousal. These are the folds of skin that go from the clitoral hood to below the vaginal opening.
