This might sound silly but im genuinely confused and too shy to ask anyone irl. I just want to understand how it actually works pls dont judge me. Can someone explain?
On its own it cant lead to pregnancy. The only theoretical concern is if there is fresh semen directly transferred to the vaginal area, otherwise no. So relax, the answer is basically no.
No, masturbation by itself does not cause pregnancy, there is no need to worry about that. Pregnancy needs sperm reaching the vagina. It is a normal thing, please dont feel guilty asking it.
