Dear Dr.Betty ,

I am 16 years old and started masturbating when I was around 12 years old. I still haven't had sex but I do penetrate my self with a small bottle of cream (that's empty) when I masturbate, and I've noticed recently that every time I finish, when I take out the bottle it has white stuff on the end, some times its clearish then others its like straight up white; that sort of looks like cum. it doesn't happen every single time I masturbate but it happens frequently; could it be uti or vaginal infection ???

Dear Dr. Betty,

Hi Betty & Carlin,

I am 30 years old, female, and in my first healthy relationship. Sex was great for the first few months, I was able to ejaculate easily accompanied by orgasms. I was able to orgasm through oral stimulation. Then, something changed. Everything changed. I had an IUD put in and around this time I became FEARFUL of sex, of being touched.

Hey Betty,

So I am about to get married and have been working with a specialist and a physical therapist. As I have been working to relax my pelvic floor enough to be able to have intercourse and working on a skin condition that caused pain around the clitoris and vulva.

Hi Betty!

I was recently diagnosed with HPV. The doctor gave me a thorough explanation about the virus. He helped me understand that HPV is more common than we think, that “almost everyone has it”, that it’s “no biggie.” He said to take care of my body and just go on enjoying life. So I went home happy, relaxed.

Hi Betty.

Dear Betty,

Hi Dr. Betty,

I have been following your site for several years. For many reasons, I have been avoiding the genital self exam...

This Valentine's Day, I gave myself this gift. To my surprise, it was a very empowering experience.

I have two questions:

1. I can feel, but I wasn't able to see my clit - I even used a magnifying mirror. I know it's there, as the stimulation is very pleasant and I did orgasm. Do some women have less visually prominent clits (as compared to pics and video I've seen, where clits look like peas or small beads)?

Dear Betty,

I'm in what seems to be a unique situation . My bf says I do things like squeeze and push him out my vagina and it numbs his penis and makes it go down and lose blood flow. Have you heard of this before ? He says this has happened to him before and makes him feel like I'm rejecting him sexually which I think is obsurd of course. Because I have no control of when this happens, or at least don't feel it. He says i need to relax and.

Dear Betty,
