A seventyyearold woman, like women of any age, may masturbate in ways that are comfortable and pleasurable for her. While individual preferences and techniques can vary widely, some factors to consider might include physical changes related to aging, such as decreased natural lubrication or changes in sexual sensitivity. Here are some common methods and considerations for masturbation in older women:
Common Methods
1. Clitoral Stimulation
Fingertips: Gently rubbing or stroking the clitoris with fingers.
Circular Motions: Using circular or rhythmic motions to stimulate the clitoral area.
2. Vaginal Stimulation
Fingers: Inserting fingers into the vagina and stimulating the Gspot, which is located a few inches inside the vagina on the front wall.
Different Angles: Experimenting with different angles and techniques to find what feels best.
3. Combination of Clitoral and Vaginal Stimulation
Dual Stimulation: Using one hand for clitoral stimulation while using the other hand for vaginal stimulation.
4. Sex Toys
Vibrators: Using vibrators designed for clitoral or vaginal stimulation. Opting for devices with adjustable settings can help find the right level of intensity.
Dildos: Using dildos or other sex toys that are comfortable and easy to use.
5. External Stimulation
Pillows or Cushions: Grinding or rubbing against soft objects like pillows or cushions can provide external stimulation.
6. Water Stimulation
Showerhead: Directing a gentle stream of water from a showerhead onto the clitoris or vulva.
Considerations
1. Lubrication
Increased Lubrication: Due to decreased natural lubrication with age, using a waterbased or siliconebased lubricant can enhance comfort and pleasure.
2. Comfort and Ease
Adjustable Positions: Experimenting with different positions, such as lying on the back, side, or sitting, to find what is most comfortable and pleasurable.
Gentle Techniques: Using gentle and slow techniques can help prevent discomfort.
3. Physical Changes
Sensitivity: Changes in sensitivity can affect sexual pleasure. It may be helpful to explore new methods or tools that enhance stimulation.
Health Conditions: If there are any underlying health conditions affecting sexual function, consulting a healthcare provider for advice can be beneficial.
